SECRETS OF LEAN CHANGEOVER
My new book, Secrets of Lean Changeover is nearly done and will go on sale on New Years Day on Amazon

This is the distillation of more than 30 years of changeover improvement and practice from the Changeover Wizard himself.

This book contains over 260 pages of ideas and inspirations, tips and tricks to improve your changeover quality and reduce changeover time.

Profusely illustrated, it has over 200 photos and drawings of improvements that you can put to use today.

They have no time for downtime. Neither do you!
You don't have time for downtime!
A week of production... Gone in less time than it takes to drink a cup of coffee.

10 minutes of daily downtime costs 41+ hours of annual production. (More with multiple shifts.)

Changeover.com was founded more than 30 years ago because uptime is the key to productivity. The only way to increase uptime is by eliminating downtime.


Changeover is the major cause of downtime in most plants. Making changeovers precise and fast is our primary focus.


Proper and precise changeovers reduce other causes of downtime as well.
