RE-BALANCING INTERNAL LOGISTICS USING ELEMENTS OF INDUSTRY 4.0
Original language description
Businesses are currently facing rapid changes not only from the side of customers, but also from the side of supplier markets. The economic activity of manufacturing companies is facing new challenges due to two global crises – COVID-19 and the Russia-Ukraine crisis. Logistics is once again gaining strategic importance, and its slimming, ideally with the use of elements of modern technologies, is more than desirable. Concrete solutions for lean logistics include, for example, the use of tractor units or autonomous trucks instead of classic forklifts. The article presents a specific project of improving internal logistics and implementing elements of automation in a manufacturing company. The aim of the project was to optimize the layout of the production lines, implement the AGV system and subsequently balance the work of forklift drivers. The key methods were the mapping of the current workplace, detailed time frames of all six forklift circuits. Furthermore, a Spaghetti diagram of logistic circuits was processed. This was followed by the implementation of AGV. The implementation of Industry 4.0 elements helped balance the pace of production lines and increase the efficiency of logistics circuits. The result was a reduction of one circuit with a return on investment within one year.
