Automotive Manufacturer Struggles with Inefficient Materials Movement
Summary
Some of the required materials are produced internally by the Fabrication department and delivered just-in-time (JIT) to the assembly lines, while others are supplied by external 3rd party vendors and stored in the warehouse until needed. To address growing workforce retention issues and increasing demand, the company invested in a fleet of AMRs to deliver all required component materials to the final assembly lines in a JIT manner. Decision logic and business rules can be configured with out-of-the-box tools, allowing users to build powerful, sophisticated workflows with limited training. Scalability and Flexibility: As the manufacturer grows, LIFT can scale to manage additional equipment and handle more complex workflows, ensuring continued efficiency improvements. LIFT’s powerful, simple-to-use interface allows incremental changes to be made and tested easily, without the need to engage third-party suppliers.
