Lean Material Management Meets Family Setups
Event
There are currently no dates scheduled for this event.
Overview
Two key technologies for material management seem to be contradictory on the shop-floor, that for the Lean “Just In Time” materials logistics and that for the shop-floor based material storage for family setups. Each of these technologies yield significant benefits, but often fails in reality to work together.
This webinar looks into the key new technology that allows lean logistics to work together with family setups and the work-order schedule harmoniously to achieve the ideal complimentary logistics solution creating the opportunity for very significant material and operational cost savings.
What You Will Learn
- What is “Just In Time” Lean materials logistics
- How Lean material logistics works, what are the benefits
- What are family setups, how they work and what are the benefits
- How can optimization of both Lean materials and family setups work together
- Discussion of agility of materials and planning on the shop floor
