ASSURING MATERIAL SUPPLY CONSTRUCTING A SUPERMARKET FOR A MIXED-MODEL ASSEMBLY LINE

摘要: Dynapac Compaction Equipment AB is an international company operating in the manufacturing industry, producing compaction and paving equipment for road construction. Throughout the years has with organic growth acquisitions developed expanded business are currently factories India, China, Brazil, Germany Sweden. Sweden around 450 employees production site located Karlskrona. In 2007, Atlas Copco decided to acquire Group as part of strategy merged into area, Construction Technique. At current state, a transition phase where extensive project called 3F, Flow For Future, recently been launched. The 3F aims restructure inbound flow within relocate existing assembly line main facility. The relocation considers system soil rollers, including associated material supply system. be relocated from south facility adapting prevailing conditions, regarding layout technical equipment. At moment, considered area holds fixed position stations low volume models about terminated or moved another area. This means storage routines planned constructed present conditions. Therefore, relocation, internal logistics configuration needs redesigned order fit future circumstances. The author’s role will assist team at Dynapac, taking responsibility logistic roller line. authors aim contribute theoretical knowledge gained experience. Moreover providing different perspective same time interact learn organization whole. In construct implement new refined structure transportation, purpose create best possible conditions handlers assemblers, study to: 1. Challenge classification included line 2. Determine facility 3.
