KANBAN System

KANBAN System is a scheduling system for lean production. It controls the logistical chain from a production point of view, and is not an inventory controlled system. It was developed in hopes of making a high level production system. It’s an effective tool in production and helps  improve issues by highlighting them. This process helps increase inventory turnover, reduce inventory stock, enhance supplier/customer relations and improve manufacturing accuracy. Kanban aligns inventory levels with actual consumption: this sends a signal to produce a new shipment. These signals are tracked for both the supplier and customer to see. Visibility is the key component to this system.

• Withdrawal only what’s needed
• Dismiss defective products
• Only product exact quantity needed
• Level the production
• Fine tuning process
• Stabilize and produce final output

With these steps CoxMHP can increase productivity to its optimal performance while minimizing waste. This production scheduling is based on demand forecast to receive such a push. Monitoring these procedures give us a greater insight into how we produce and how much. Kanban cards help signal the movement of manufactured materials from the outside supplier or within the facility. Consumption drives to help improve the correct movement of these products. This is typically a paper process but is increasing being optimized electronically.

CoxMHP implements the latest and greatest technology to get the job done.
