Pull System

後工程引取りJapanese

A system where the downstream process signals what it needs, and the upstream process only replaces what was taken.

Examples

  1. 01Assembly withdraws parts from the supermarket and machining replaces only those.
  2. 02A two-bin system triggers refill when the first bin is empty.
  3. 03A printer only prints orders once packing confirms capacity.
