eKanban
The mHub module that enables automated replenishment control in production
TRANSITION EFFICIENCY
Logistics made simple, and connected
As an essential function of production, logistics must function continuously and smoothly in order to reduce production lead times. The eKanban module was created as a central hub for information and management of production logistics. Material supply and material disposal is controlled automatically via system signals. Remaining running times are automatically calculated so that downtimes due to missing material can be completely eliminated.

MODULE DESCRIPTION
What is our eKanban?
The nuveon eKanban module provides logistics employees with real-time material requirements on their mobile devices, thereby enabling a continuous and uninterrupted production process. Each eKanban transport order contains important information about the requested material: storage location, time the system is required, system location and much more. The continuous communication with the shop floor terminals enables the stock status to be constantly updated. The possibility of connecting to the system signals (OPC and OPCUA) ensures that forklift drivers always know what is needed, where and when.
Intuitive indicators
The forklift driver can properly plan deliveries through color-coded progress bars showing container status.
