Sažetak

Today, when changes are the only thing that is constant, management based
on Lean principles has proved to be an excellent tool for attaining high
levels of flexibility. Small batches are the major prerequisite for flexibility
and readiness of a company for quick response to those changes. But when
the process industry is the case, there is an obstacle in achieving small
batch production and that is change-over time.
This paper presents how it is possible by using Kaizen workshops (also
one of the lean tools) to manage shorter change-over time on machines in
the processing industry.
