Werma has introduced a new comprehensive kit of the essential components required to set up a simple manually operated andon light system.
In Lean manufacturing terms Andon refers to any visual display that shows status information on the plant floor. The AndonBox and Light Kit from Werma contains all the necessary components to create an Andon system. For example it could be used to indicate line status, show when a supervisor or engineer is required, or allow operators to stop production for quality issues. The AndonBox & Light Kit is a 24V system that allows up to four light tiers to be switched. The mains power supply has interchangeable adaptors for EU, UK and North America, and has a 100-240Vinput range making it suitable for most countries.
Manual work stations, assembly lines, packing and despatch lines can all benefit from this easy-to-install manual call-for-action system.
