Water Spider

Material handler who follows a standard route to replenish line-side materials and remove empties without interrupting operators.

Examples

  1. 01The water spider drives a standard 20-minute loop, refilling bins at 14 workstations and taking away empty containers.
  2. 02The logistics review checks the water spider's route time and missing-part stops at the line each week.
  3. 03With a water spider, operators no longer leave their stations to fetch parts, and the line gains 4 % output.
