3. Work: Reducing the amount of work you do by using equipment to automate repetitive tasks.
An effective material handling system allows your company to have the necessary stock in smaller spaces where possible, reduce time spent on internal operations (such us transport and picking), control inventory in real-time, reduce operational costs and optimize the overall flow of goods in your facility.
Our intelligent solutions allow you to use multi-order and batch mode to increase productivity without having to compromise your order fulfillment processes for larger orders.
Material handling is more than just the movement and transport of products. It provides a standardized process for handling and transportation from manufacturing through distribution.
A system that is automated is usually made up of multiple units controlled by software.
The ability to stock the right amount of stock in a smaller space allows you to reduce your time for internal operations, such as picking up and transporting goods. You can also control inventory remotely, reduce operational costs, and optimize the flow in your facility.
While warehouses are known to be busy work environments with constant movement, they don’t have to be chaotic or labor-intensive, as long as the proper systems are in place.
A material storage system's function is to store materials for a period of time and to provide access to those materials when needed. Material types Table 11.1 shows the product (raw material, purchased parts, and work-in-process). Finished product (including rework and scrap) Process (Refuse, Toding, Spare parts)
Storage equipment is any piece of equipment that is used to hold or buffer materials over time (and may include transport); typically, it helps preserve valuable work floor space. Having enough working space is critical for product protection, worker safety, and lean manufacturing.
The first and foremost goal of material handling is to reduce production costs. Because material procurement, storage, and movement account for a significant portion of total production costs. Material is essential for the manufacturing process.
