💥 Xilix Knows Material Handling. 💥 Material handling equipment (MHE) refers to a wide range of devices, tools, and systems used to move, store, control, and protect materials throughout the manufacturing, warehousing, and distribution processes. These tools are essential in : ◽ Increasing efficiency ◽ Minimizing labor costs ◽ Ensuring the safe transportation of goods These systems are designed to streamline the handling of heavy or bulky materials, reduce human error, and optimize workflows in environments like factories, warehouses, and shipping yards. 

In #SupplyChainManagement it is important to consider material handling. The systems that trace, move, and handle material as it enters, passes through and departs manufacturing processes, machinery, or fabrication areas can be a critical key to productivity improvements. Many of the same principles that are often applied to manufacturing and distribution can be applied to material movement. Manufacturer/Distributors often overlook material synchronization & handling and instead focus on production processes and equipment. But, when internal material flows are not optimized, the lack of coordination between production and distribution requirements can often reduce the very efficiency of the production equipment. The automation of material tracing, tracking, disposition, storage, and handling systems used in industrial operations can significantly reduce costs, increase productivity, and create a safer, more ergonomic production environment when aligned with other enterprise systems.

Uncover Hidden Losses in Operations https://lnkd.in/gcNJYqkD 📊 Do you know the hidden factors that could be dragging down your overall efficiency? Let's explore the 16 Major Losses that impact both manpower and equipment efficiency in manufacturing. Addressing these losses can drastically improve productivity and reduce downtime. 👷♂️ Manpower Losses: These occur when labor isn't utilized efficiently. For example, time is wasted waiting for instructions or materials. These can be classified into five types, including Management Loss, Operating Motion Loss, and Line Organization Loss. ⚙️ Equipment Losses: When it comes to machines, several losses disrupt the Overall Equipment Efficiency (OEE). These include equipment failure, setup losses, cutting blade changes, and minor stoppages. ⚡ Material & Tool Losses: Lastly, don’t overlook losses in material, energy, or tools such as energy waste during startup or poor yield from tools that are out of calibration. By recognizing these losses, you can implement strategies to reduce them and optimize your operational performance. #LeanManufacturing #OEE #ContinuousImprovement #ManufacturingEfficiency #OperationalExcellence
