Electronic Kanban System Optimization

for Industry and Production

The Open Mind Tech Electronic Kanban Solution makes it possible to optimize the production lines and line manufacturing supermarkets supply in accordance with the production flows of each Company.

Electronic Kanban features

The Open Mind Tech Electronic Kanban allows you to digitize all the material supply flows in the production lines and in the line supermarkets. Digitizing the process allows you to:

monitor the lead times of requests from the lines until the kanban replenishment has taken place,
monitor consumptions,
report any issue or understock

The solution is based on the OM-Link proprietary platform which interfaces, upstream, with any type of corporate ERP and / or MES and, downstream, with the technologies involved in optimizing the process: Wi-Fi Electronic Labels, barcode readers , Tablet, AGV, PLC.

Electronic Labels Functionality

By providing the locations of the production lines or the supermarket with special Wi-fi Electronic Labels with high intensity LED lights, it is possible to:

guide operators in the assembly stages, because they allow you to identify the Kanbans containing the necessary components, in the desired order
request the supply of a drawer / item in real time
monitor and guide the operators in the replacement phases of the kanbans required by the line
guide the operators in charge of the picking and refill of line Supermarkets
