SMED (Single-Minute Exchange of Die) is a system for dramatically reducing the time it takes to complete equipment changeovers. It focuses on converting as many changeover activities as possible to 'external,' meaning they can be done while the equipment is still running. This significantly reduces downtime and increases the efficiency of production processes. It's commonly used in manufacturing to enable smaller batch sizes, faster response to customer demand, and reduced inventory.
