One-piece-flow - ways to achieve highly productive flow production of single items

Establishing process chains, manufacturing in sync with customers

For plant and works managers, specialists and managers in the fields of production, assembly, logistics, production planning and CIP (process optimisation).

Why attend this seminar

In the 'One-piece-flow' concept the parts that are to be processed or assembled are passed from one machine (workplace) directly to the next, without intermediate storage. This makes it possible to eliminate waiting time prior to the respective work processes. The seminar shows you how you can move away from traditional focusing on utilisation - and the associated disadvantages of this - one-piece flow manufacturing. The principles are explained via practical examples and you are put in a position in which you can realise a process chain with the necessary methods and tools.

Following successful implementation, the following benefits for your company will emerge:
1. High ability to react to customer requests
2. Reduced throughput time along the entire value stream
3. Continual flow of material with reduction in buffer, transport and waiting times
4. Improved productivity and quality
5. Permanent supply availability with minimal stocks
