Flow
Withdrawal Kanban
Kanban authorizing movement or withdrawal of a specified quantity from a supermarket or upstream location.
Examples
- 01The material handler takes a withdrawal kanban to the supermarket and collects exactly one box of 200 screws for the line.
- 02At the gemba, the team counts withdrawal kanban cards in each loop every Friday, because lost cards lead to shortages.
- 03Reducing withdrawal kanban cards from 6 to 4 per part cuts line-side stock, and the team checks for stockouts and lead time for a month.
