Space Craft

摘要

An automotive supplier has used advanced automated-handling systems to make the most of the limited space available in its production facilities and create a storage area that it said helps it to meet a 'just in time' contract with BMW.rnThe integrated conveyor and order-picking system is claimed to be a key element of Magna Intier Automotive's facility in Redditch, where it manufactures 255,000 unique cockpits (fully assembled dashboards) each year for the Mini.rnDue to space constraints, the automated storage area for buffer stock was created next to the assembly line.
