Optimised for WIP<br />

The core of WIP logic (work in process) comprises<br />

allocating a value to stored items between<br />

production phases. Money is wasted when halfready<br />

products or components lie unused e.g. in a<br />

trolley used as a buffer. If MultiLine is used, only a<br />

small quantity of half-finished products lies waiting<br />

between production phases.<br />

This problem is amplified if a mistake made in<br />

one phase remains unnoticed until a trolley full of<br />

defective components is brought to the next phase.<br />

With MultiLine both the cost per mistake and the<br />

number of mistakes are significantly minimised,<br />

because only a few faulty products can be produced<br />

before the mistake is noticed.<br />

For a tailor-made study, contact our specialists<br />
