Handling Frequency

Number of times material or a product is physically handled during a process or flow.

Examples

  1. 01The study shows a handling frequency of 9 for each pallet, from goods receipt to line, including 3 rehandles in buffer zones.
  2. 02In the layout review, every handling step is questioned to see if handling frequency can be reduced.
  3. 03After direct delivery to the line, handling frequency drops from 9 to 4 and damaged parts fall accordingly.
