Jeff Christensen VP of Product at Seegrid, the leader in connected self-driving vehicles for materials handling, discussed the journey toward Industry 4.0 for manufacturers. "As we advance steadily toward Industry 4.0, companies should prepare to redefine how they approach materials handling, including optimization of new technology," suggested Christensen.

According to John Murdoch, CEO of Alfacon Solutions, "Material flow is essentially mapping the journey that materials take from the time the material is received at the manufacturing site to the point when customers actually receive the finished product. The material flow must be recorded at various stages throughout its journey. The creation of value stream map (VSM) identifies waste and identifies bottlenecks. Far more than simple conveyors, many engineer-to-order solutions combine best-practice, lean manufacturing technologies allowing manufacturers to view the amount of stocks, materials, and components that are stored at any particular time. Excess storage of components and raw materials require lighting, security, and additional resources which do not add value to the process."

Off-the-shelf kitting solutions must support line-side and off-site kitting architectures. Topper Tube can be designed to create and integrate into any type of kitting solution and manufacturing process. Modular, reconfigurable kitting solutions may include picking sensors or indicators ensuring error proofing. Because tube & joint solutions can be changed or added in minutes without programming the process means eliminating downtime and improving throughput and productivity.

The closest any manufacturer can get to the magic bullet of efficiency (collaboration) is through greater supply chain visibility. According to Synchrono, the leader in demand-driven manufacturing software, supply chain visibility means all partners get access to – and share data - in real-time. Visibility to all orders allows suppliers to proactively respond to demand signals. Poor visibility often results in parts shortages and expenses associated with unplanned downtime and expedited shipping methods to get the part back on the shop floor quickly. A real-time view of parts on hand allows a supply chain manager to take action before there is a stock out, eliminating frustration and added costs.
