Drawing from machine, operations, and enterprise data sources, SyncView^® gives users the ability to create personalized views of data called “Boards” that monitor equipment and process status in real time.  With this level of visibility, users benefit from instant access to information that will drive quality decisions throughout the organization and empower continuous improvement initiatives with confidence and clarity.

Thought Leadership: 8 Forms of Waste in Lean Manufacturing

At the heart of lean manufacturing is one very simple principle: remove as much waste as possible from your processes.

Lean practitioners have identified 8 forms of waste that occur in manufacturing. And while there are many ways to eliminate these 8 forms of waste, when comparing the level of effort to potential return, implementing eKanban is one of the most attractive lean initiatives there is. Download 8 Forms of Waste to learn how SyncKanban^® eKanban software addresses each form of waste.

Thought Leadership: Get Lean on Scrap

Every year, manufacturers lose profits when they scrap materials and finished goods because of damage or obsolescence. In fact, the cost of scrap is far more than the cost of the material itself. Hiding behind every dollar of scrapped inventory are several more dollars lost in storage, productivity, customer satisfaction and potential revenues.

This paper reviews one of the hidden benefits of eKanban software: Scrap reduction. Download Get Lean on Scrap to learn how SyncKanban^® software can help address the most common causes of scrap and accelerate your efforts in applying Lean principles in your organization. You’ll learn:

• How to use Manufacturing, Supplier and Tugger Route eKanbans to reduce defective, damaged and obsolete inventory
• Why you should pay attention to a new metric: Queue Turns
• How one manufacturer reduced 90% of their scrap in just three months

Customer Case Study: Orbital ATK Proves the Merits of SyncKanban^®

This case study reviews the strategy and results of a new Lean project at the Aerospace Structures Division (ASD) of Orbital ATK. The goal of the project was to impact two key inventory metrics – improve inventory turns and reduce inventory cost; specifically, waste associated with material scrap.

• 30% WIP Inventory Reduction
• 90% Reduction in Scrap
• Consolidated 16 Replenishment Processes into SyncKanban^® eKanban software

Customer Case Study: Dynisco

Today’s manufacturing eKanban software systems are not only equipped to manage highly complex environments, but provide a wealth of hidden benefits. Benefits that Dynisco, a leading materials testing and extrusion-control instrumentation manufacturer, realized after implementing SyncKanban^® software, an electronic manufacturing Kanban solution from Synchrono^®.

In upgrading from a manual to a manufacturing eKanban software system, Dynisco addressed 5 key business challenges and achieved significant reductions in inventory costs, lead times and more. What’s more, their 66-step manual manufacturing Kanban process to report inventory and supplier data was reduced to just 6 easy steps.
