Tip of the Week
Some material handling solutions have nothing to do with hardware, software, or safety. These solutions have everything to do with the planning stages of your operation. The Lean Enterprise Institute publishes books that can help planners rethink the movement and storage of materials in an operation and find more efficient uses of the space and materials used in everyday operations. One such book is called Making Materials Flow, and addresses problems include what the book's author calls "The lack of a lean material-handling system for purchased parts to support continuous flow cells, small-batch processing, and traditional assembly lines." That quote can be found on the Lean Enterprise Institute's web page for Making Materials Flow, and the institute has a large selection of important titles that can help facility managers and planners come up with more efficient material handling solutions. Books such as Creating Continuous Flow and Learning To See could be a vital addition to your team's knowledge base.
