eKanban

Profit from the pull principle

Kanban or the classic pull principle is common in production. C-parts in particular can be produced efficiently or their availability in production can be organized.

With the mApp eKanban you digitalize the Kanban method by digitally mapping the control loops from source and sink as well as the Kanban cards. The mApp displays all control loops in real time on the electronic Kanban board. You can configure if you want to manually create orders or automatically generate them in order to remanufacture parts with low inventory. These Kanban orders are then available for planning and processing together with other production orders.

Your benefits

Digitally map Kanban processes and increase transparency in manufacturing and profit from both worlds: lean and IT.

Technical information

The mApp eKanban is part of the Order Management category of HYDRA X.

The mApp uses data of the Virtual Production Reality (ViPR) of MPDV's Manufacturing Integration Platform (MIP).

eKanban in the MIP ecosystem

The Kanban orders generated with eKanban can be planned, processed and evaluated together with other production orders. MPDV also offers the following mApps for this purpose:

• Work Order Management: manage production orders
• Work Order Execution: collect order data in the shop floor
• Work Order Controlling: evaluate and analyze shop floor data
• Detailed Scheduling: detailed planning of orders and operations with APS FEDRA
