Lean Production Building Kit System for factory equipment design
Building factory equipment for lean production
A special solution is needed when building your factory equipment for streamlined intralogistics. Adapting flexibly to new processes and requirements is a must. That is exactly what the item Lean Production Building Kit System was designed for. It uses aluminium, which is considerably lighter than steel yet still very robust.

A closer look at the Lean Production Building Kit System
Optimising the material flow, supplying materials and using Karakuri/LCA for power-free automation – it’s all possible with the item Lean Production Building Kit System. The secret to this flexibility lies in the modular design and the end-to-end compatibility of the item world.

Optimised for building your factory equipment
The Lean Production Building Kit System offers ideal components for designing and building factory and warehouse equipment – profiles, fasteners, accessories, floor elements for mobile solutions and much more besides. Profile Tube System D30 is at the heart of everything. Thanks to the “one-screwdriver principle”, constructions can be assembled, modified and put into service with ease right where they are to be used.
There is no need to retighten screw connections, constructions are easy to extend and profiles can be reused, which ensures excellent sustainability. The Lean Production Building Kit System is your gateway to cost-efficiency. Profile Tubes D30 in six colours makes it particularly easy to distinguish between different areas, components, etc. The fastening elements automatically ensure ESD-safe contact.

Design factory equipment directly in your browser
The item Engineeringtool applies a drag-and-drop approach to equipment design. This free online tool saves everyone involved in the project a great deal of time. The prevention of design errors and the use of time-saving functions, including automatically generated documentation, speeds up your project.
Preconfigured sample solutions result in even greater time savings. Use the designs as they are or customise them in the item Engineeringtool.

Lean automation with Karakuri/LCA
Karakuri/LCA is the ultimate in lean production and requires a considerable amount of expertise. Generally speaking, this automation method relies solely on spring force, gravity and mechanical principles, meaning you can create cost-efficient, flexible and sustainable automation solutions.
