    The document discusses how a tool management system was implemented to reduce tool changeover times, rejections due to tools/settings, tool costs, and line stoppages from lack of tools. Some key results of the system included reducing tool changeover times from 10 minutes to 2 minutes for quick change spindles, eliminating pre-drilling operations to reduce tool costs, and reducing line stoppages from lack of tools from 13 to 0 through better tool inventory management. Overall, the tool management system helped improve productivity and reduce costs.
