Description

K itting or the organizing of components in self-contained bins, has already proven itself as an effective means to achieve air-tight inventory control and is practically made-to-order for managing a critical element of the Just-In-Time (JIT) manufacturing process: the supply chain. Yet, despite its advantages, kitting remains largely misunderstood and underutilized in the manufacturing process, a victim of traditional thinking that says inventory control is a matter for the shop floor.

O ne of Global Kitting's satisfied customers is Moore Process Automation Solutions, which produces electronic control systems for manufacturing plants. Moore was looking for a way to decrease floor space in their circuit board manufacturing area. U nder their old system, each workbench was dedicated to a particular job, and bins containing the appropriate components were permanently installed in these areas. Whenever a particular job was idle, the associated work area remained unused, wasting a significant amount of space.

Global Kitting, manufacturer of Partfolio Kitting Systems, makes the most versatile small parts handling system available.
