Kanban is an efficient tool for controlling internal and external material flows in production and logistics. The Integrated Kanban System from manufactus in conjunction with the Industrial Smart Watch from NIMMSTA allows these PULL processes to be organised much more efficiently.
manufactus GmbH, a specialist in e-Kanban software for more than 20 years, and NIMMSTA GmbH, one of the world’s leading providers of Industrial Smart Watches to support intralogistics processes, have entered into a strategic partnership.
The aim of this cooperation is to offer customers of both companies an end-to-end solution for optimising Kanban processes and increasing efficiency.
The IKS e-Kanban solution from manufactus, which companies around the world use to efficiently implement Kanban processes, is essentially based on the recording of Kanban movements in the warehouse and production. Most companies do this using low-cost barcodes. With its Industrial Smart Watch, NIMMSTA offers a highly ergonomic and innovative solution for scanning Kanban cards while at the same time providing freedom of movement for the necessary material handling. manufactus has therefore developed a corresponding user menu for the Smart Watch in order to make the scanning processes secure and user-friendly while offering its customers the many advantages of the NIMMSTA solution.
Together, the two companies offer a seamless, efficient and user-friendly solution for customers who want to optimise their logistics processes. Three main benefits are at the centre of this:
- Smart Watch solution from NIMMSTA
Small, user-friendly wearable technology for maximum flexibility and efficiency. - Guided scanning process with high security
The integrated IKS menu on the device ensures maximum scanning security through a guided scanning process. Each step is clearly displayed and supports employees in their work process, which significantly increases efficiency and accuracy. - Individual configuration options for each employee
The scanner menu can be configured individually for each employee via the IKS user administration. This flexibility enables workflows to be optimally adapted to requirements.
‘’The partnership will jointly set new standards for the scanning process in intralogistics. The solution offers seamless integration, is user-friendly and guarantees a high level of process reliability for our customers’’, says Florian Ruhland, CEO of NIMMSTA
