What is a Kanban System?
The Kanban system reduces current stocks and finished goods. This reduces capital commitment and inventory-caused waste. Stocks are limited, so that it is not possible to exceed the set stock level, flexibility towards fluctuating customer requirements is increased, production control is drastically simplified. The Kanban system is also often referred to as the supermarket principle: A consumer takes pre-produced goods from a shelf. The supermarket operator refills the removed quantities. This means for the production: Planning interventions are only necessary with regard to the quantity to be stocked and the time of ordering. This reduces planning and control activities in daily operations to a minimum. The processes are linked via a buffer store, in which the supplier provides the produced parts and from which the customer takes the parts. Kanban thus replaces conventional order control with consumption control by creating a linked, self-controlling control loop from two consecutive processes. The control loop consists of a process that consumes parts, the customer, and an upstream process that produces parts, the supplier. The kanban card serves as an order document. Depending on the specific requirements, different types of Kanban are used: traffic light Kanban, container Kanban, double circuit Kanban.
Why is a Kanban Board useful?
Medium-sized companies in particular have recognized that not only low-variant manufacturing operations benefit from Kanban control. With the right tools, productivity and speed advantages can be successfully realized even with a large number of variants. The central organizational tool is the Kanban Board. It offers planners and employees alike the opportunity to gain a comprehensive overview of requirements and stocks and to control their work processes within the team themselves.

Kanban Board with Channel Planner V

Due to the modular design of the planning board, a later extension is possible at any time. The accessories of the planning board Channel Planner V enables an easily recognisable and clearly presented arrangement of information: Barrier strips reduce or bar the width of the tracks to a width predetermined by the operator.

Through Kanban Board more personal responsibility & improved communication in the team
"A great advantage of the Kanban Board is the necessity of communication within the team, i.e. between departments and between employees themselves. The shift managers hold their meetings daily in front of the Kanban Board. The introduction of this system has also successfully strengthened the personal responsibility of the leading employees. We can now generally rely on a seamless flow of information across departments".
