・订货周期「order lead time」

・生产周期「production lead time」

・标准化「standardization」

  I hear that lead time reduction is essential to improving productivity and profitability, but what are the actual areas that we should pay attention to? 听说要提高生产力和效益的话，缩短生产周期必不可少，实际上需要注意哪些地方呢？

• Chris

  We need to think about the order lead time and the production lead time separately.
  To reduce the order lead time, for example, we can think about shortening the delivery time for parts.
  We need to ensure cooperation with our customer to do this. 需要将订货时间与生产时间区分考虑。缩短订货时间的话，可以缩短零件的交货期，这需要与交货单位协调。

  Reducing the setup time and encouraging standardization are important. Factory automation is also very effective. 减少设置时间和注重标准化是十分重要的。另外工厂自动化十分有效。
