OPTIMAX is Lean
Optimax creates more value and produces less waste by adopting Lean manufacturing. Traditional manufacturing, with departmental barriers, has been thrown out the window and Lean production cells have taken its place. Optimax has more than 20 different production cells, organized by product group and final attribute. Each cell is set-up to run its optics manufacturing process start to finish and is worked by cross-trained team members.
Continuous Improvement
Continuous improvement is the Optimax way. We embrace and practice the concepts of continuous improvement, such as:
- 5-Why
- A3 Reports
- Kaizen
- One-Piece Flow
- PDCA
- Root-Cause Problem Solving
- Standard Work
- Waste Reduction
