Carousel-based progressive assembly systems are most often used in high volume manufacturing/subassembly operations, or in growing companies with intensive manual sub- or final assembly requirements.

These applications effectively control line balance without the significant engineering effort typically required of single level, paced assembly lines. Vertical use of cube provides an excellent (and visual) means of buffering product to accommodate large differences in operator or operation dwell times.

Typical Benefits:

• automated delivery of in-process sub- and final assembly items
• automated parts delivery
• visual WIP status
• line balance attained with little or no engineering required
• minimal operator skills required
• workstations may be generic or dedicated
• increased system throughput
• decreased order cycle time
• reduced labor costs
• decreased WIP and raw material inventory levels
