Updated: Aug 27, 2024

Ever wondered how things are made in a perfectly organized way? Parts smoothly move from one spot to another, slowly coming together, like pieces of a puzzle falling into place. That's what happens in an Assembly Area.


Boosting how smoothly the assembly area works involves many things. But there's one key thing that often gets missed: how workers move. Making the assembly area work better means cutting down how much workers move. And that's where picking the right workstations comes in.

Here are another factors to consider-

1. Adopting a 'pull system' where things are made only when customers actually want them, making production happen as needed.
