Abstract
The rapid developing of technology today has forced manufacturing companies to widely expands their business and production abilities. Efficiencies in all aspects must be taken to maximized production capacity and reduce waste to survive. Lean’s SMED technique is one of waste reduction method that usually used in manufacturing companies and specifically called the Quick Die Change (QDC) for metal stamping companies. But some research related to QDC only discuss the setup tools and operator movement during setup and process. This research observed the setup process of the die construction that has been modified to be able to reduce the setup time and other time wasted activities. This QDC die construction could save setup time by 60% compared to conventional die and could do more if carefully planned. Research conducted in an automotive spare parts maker in Jakarta wider region that already use this QDC die in their production line.
