Summary
Our EPD Industry Kanban solution empowered our client to streamline their production processes, increase efficiency, and reduce waste.
Our client, a leading computer manufacturer, operates multiple production lines with distinct workstations overseeing various production processes. Previously utilizing traditional paper-based industrial kanban systems, they faced challenges with decreased production efficiency during periods of high output, resulting in significant waste.
Challenges
● Inefficient Paper-Based Kanban: The reliance on traditional paper-based kanban systems led to inefficiencies and waste during high production volumes.
● Limited Visibility: Lack of real-time updates and integration with their systems hindered the ability to monitor and manage production processes effectively.
Solution: Implementation of Electronic Paper Display (EPD) Industry Kanban
Our Electronic Paper Display (EPD) Industry Kanban solution addressed these challenges with the following features:
● Energy-Efficient Displays: Our EPD screens significantly reduced power consumption, providing an eco-friendly alternative to traditional electronic displays.
● Real-time Integration: Seamless integration with the client's existing systems enabled real-time updates, ensuring accurate and up-to-date information on the production status.
● Detailed Information Display: The EPD Industry Kanban showcased essential details such as part names, part numbers, and critical inventory levels, enhancing visibility and control.
Workflow Improvement
● Visual Board Transformation: Transitioning from paper to electronic displays transformed their visual board into a dynamic and responsive tool for workflow management.
● Energy Savings: Reduced power consumption contributed to cost savings and environmental sustainability.
● Real-time Updates: The ability to update display content in real-time facilitated better decision-making and responsiveness to changing production demands.
● Efficient Inventory Management: Detailed information on parts and inventory levels improved overall inventory management, minimizing excess stock and reducing waste.
Results
● Enhanced Production Efficiency: The EPD Industry Kanban led to a significant improvement in production efficiency, especially during periods of high output.
● Reduced Waste: The optimized workflow and real-time information updates minimized waste, resulting in cost savings for the client.
● Improved Visibility: Enhanced visibility into production processes allowed for better decision-making and resource allocation.
