Abstract
Procedures to reduce set‐up times at individual machines have been well documented; however, very little research has been conducted on developing an effective strategy to prioritize set‐up reduction procedures in a multi‐machine facility. Describes a new and innovative way – a throughput approach – to prioritize set‐up reduction procedures in a multi‐machine production system.
