Labadis

Make productivity and save space by simplifying your flows

Production flows reflect the company’s complexity :

• Diversity of bought, transformed and sold pieces
• Multiple path combinations
• Quantity Variation
• Production, supplier and customer problems

The management systems who manage them rarely integrate these major disparities.

However, it is possible to organize adapted production flows to these situations without adding constraints. Labadis has developed a simple and modular flow system which is based on:
• transport of pieces in 400 mm wide containers (most common size) to ensure the same packaging unit between the workstation, during transport and storage
• a patented system which enables standardized coupling and uncoupling in less than one second for all types of Rollis trolleys
• Horizontal storage to make products permanently available without loss of space
• A one-way workplace organization for simplicity.
• Direct truck loading with Rollis® to reduce handling
• All production steps managed with Kanban

The system being compatible with all other handling modes, it can be implemented gradually:
• No more forklifts
• Safer for staff and product
• Total staff independence
• All staff become independent

The visual management of stocks allows spotting of all potential supply disruption thus customer delivery times are controlled.

The generalization of the Labadis system generates important productivity gains and return on investment is reached within a year.
