Customer is producer of returnable plastic packaging for material handling (plastic crats). On the shop floor they have several machines that place the molded parts directly on a conveyer belt. The belt transports the product to packaging department where the product is placed on a “carrousel”.
Employees on the packing department take the products of the carrousel and put them on a pallet. The products have no identification at this time and sometimes very similar products are produced at the same time with the result that they are not correctly labeled when the pallet is full. (the print their handling unit stickers in advance for the running shop orders).
On a regular basis the wrong identification is placed on a pallet.
Question from the customer: Does IFS have customers with a similar process that found a solution to prevent these kind of mistakes?
