Automatic replenishment control with the E-Kanban system «SEKAN»

Manual Kanban systems have the disadvantage that Kanban cards get lost or there are too many in circulation. This makes targeted inventory management difficult.

With the SEKAN system from KBS, material replenishment processes can be digitized and inventory management optimized. A fill level sensor in the Kanban rack continuously monitors the container stock in the flow channel and automatically reports any necessary replenishment requirements to the ERP system.

Fill level detection in real time
The current fill level is recorded in the system in real time. Minimum fill levels, replenishment order quantities, replenishment request intervals, etc. can be easily parameterized via easy-to-use software and thus electronic replenishment requests can be generated.

The system can be used for all standard sizes of small load carriers  and shelf types, also in combination with a pick-by-light or put-to-light system from KBS.
