Efficient assembly processes
through intelligent conveying technology and structured workflowsCustomer requirement
For the series production of vehicle charging cables, a flexible assembly line was required that efficiently connects various assembly processes. The goal was a continuous material flow between multiple workstations and high process reliability with a compact design. Additionally, the system needed to flexibly accommodate different product variants.
Our solution
BKLS developed a customized assembly line with an integrated conveying system for product carriers. The system connects a total of eight workstations and ensures a structured and continuous assembly process along the entire production line.
Thanks to a specially developed transfer system at the ends of the lines, large curves could be avoided, and a particularly space-saving system solution was realized. Integrated buffer zones in front of each workstation and a Kanban system ensure smooth material flow and demand-oriented supply to the workstations.
