 Trilogiqvagnen for the Volvo employees themselves based on a single day. It can be made larger or smaller, with new specialized to suit the new components. Wagons consists of pipes and fittings. French finesse instead of clumsy forklifts, pallets and material requirements. A transport carriage as changing shape as desired to give the Volvo Trucks Tuve in nearly 20 percent higher efficiency in the assembly. In a corner of goods reception at truck assembly in Tuve is a small handicraft workshop. Here are a bunch of French specialists from the French company Trilogiq Volvo taught people to build the transport carriages of steel pipes and special snap. The tools are Allen key and kapfil. - Our old coaches, we need to send an engineering company when we need to build on them or order new. It usually takes six to eight weeks before we have them here, "said Jan-Olaf Lake, leading logistics part of the project" Future Factory Tuve. Trilogiqvagnen for the Volvo employees themselves based on a single day, It can be made larger or smaller, with new specialized to suit the new components. In its various guises is so versatile that it can be used both as carrier of components and assembly kits and materials to stand in assembly lines. Flexibility is increasingly important as the model changes on the trucks is getting closer and the number of variants increases. More and more parts will be assembled on the ropes. Today crowding materials facades, Euro pallets, locations, and the old welded wagons around the ropes and takes more and more space. It is the French Trees and Young Trees cart to change. With this you can start working with new methods of materials supply, becoming "lean" too in logistics. For the French coach that place goes to apply Toyota's methods. At the same time releasing large areas on the shop floor, which only represents a cost, a loss? Selected time for fitter decreases, any time spent to gather materials are reduced. And it's easier to get to ergonomics in material places so easily rebuilt. - This way of working with logistics is an absolute must for Swedish industry. Compared to Toyota and many major companies on the continent is Materials supply for sitting in Sweden. But I think we are seeing a new trend now, "said Bjorn Lang Beck, CEO of Swedish Mounting Boards.  The wagons can be used both as carriers of components and assembly kits and materials to stand in assembly lines Facilitate the transport trucks, combined with the timing of material flow has for years been in use in Japan. Already in the 1950s, Toyota was working with the predecessor to the day French logistics products. Toyota got the flow already in the 1950s The Swedish scientist who first came in contact with Toyota's way to feed assembly lines with materials was Chalmers researcher Lars Citiz and his closest colleagues. - We saw how Toyota was working with material supply for several decades ago. First, we were most puzzled, but later we understood how important their trucks, equipment racks and material flow was. Since then, Lars Citiz conducted a personal campaign to persuade the Swedish company to work with Toyota methods also in terms of materials supply. - There are Swedish companies over the years experimented with this type of methods. But now it has become a clear trend, especially in the automotive industry. |
