Just-In-Time
Just-In-Time means making only what is needed, when it is needed, and in the quantity needed, at every stage of production. That means we strive for consistent quality, an even production flow and streamlined parts handling. It requires the production line to be stocked with all the right parts. As parts are used, new stock is delivered at the right time and in the right quantity, avoiding interruptions or slow-downs in the production process. The Kanban system is central to the Just-In-Time process. It provides an automatic, real-time method to replenish parts at the line side and keep minimal stock.
