Logistics
FIFO (First In, First Out)
First In, First Out
Sequencing rule in which the oldest item or order is processed or consumed first.
Examples
- 01In the lane between welding and painting, FIFO ensures that the oldest frame is always painted first.
- 02The logistics review checks FIFO lanes on the floor to see whether operators skip ahead to easier jobs.
- 03Using FIFO lanes with a maximum of 10 frames limits waiting time and makes any delay upstream visible at once.
