Flexible Material Handling

Synopsis
Looks at how materials handling, a non-value added process in the manufacturing cycle, can be minimised, automated or avoided to provide immediate cost savings. Case studies include Lexmart, Chrysler, Ford and Electrolux. Shows how the product demands and production needs of each of these companies has influenced the design of their materials handling systems, ranging from very complex automated systems to the simple ‘operator-first’ approach.
