Interesting facts about Kanban

1947 entwickelte Toyota mit dem Kanban-System eine Methode zur Organisation der Just-in-time-Fertigung. Die Lieferung richtet sich dabei immer nach dem tatsächlichen Verbrauch der Materialien am Bereitstell- und Verbrauchsort. Einfach zu verstehen ist das Kanban-Prinzip am Beispiel des Milkrun der englischen und US-amerikanischen Milchmänner: Sie ersetzten die leeren Milchflaschen vor der Haustür ihrer Kunden schon früh in einem festgelegten Liefer-Rhythmus durch ebenso viele volle Gebinde.

 

The Key Advantages of Kanban

Since the introduction of the decentralized control method, Kanban has been constantly improved and further developed – right up to the highly efficient, (partially) automated E-Kanban. The actual core has remained the same: instead of the classic push (bring) principle, the pull (get) principle applies. Whereas the push principle usually relies on demand estimates, Kanban is based on actual demand, which means that stock levels can be significantly minimized. The Kanban system is therefore more robust and at the same time more flexible. Over the course of time, new and even more efficient pull principles have been developed that optimally safeguard delivery and production capabilities on site.
