Best supplier in the field of logistics
The fact that Würth Industrie Service focuses on the security of supply to its customers, even when the situation is fragile in the procurement market, supply chain and especially in pricing, has given it an advantage. By bestowing the Siemens Healthineers Supplier Award upon the company, the medical technology specialist has recognised it for its excellent cooperation and has honoured it as the best supplier in logistics. For many years, the C-Parts expert has been supplying Siemens Healthineers with several thousand parts such as fasteners and technical chemicals on a daily basis. Automated system solutions are used to manage inventories in a streamlined manner, to map reorders automatically and to identify any fluctuations in demand at an early stage. For example, using highly flexible Kanban solutions for efficient and transparent optimisation of existing production processes or electronic procurement solutions in Electronic Data Interchange (EDI). Above all, the company stood out for the implementation and development of pioneering innovations in direct workplace supply. With the Smart Workplace, walking unnecessarily, searching for parts and manually tracking the requirements are now things of the past. In the assembly workplace of the future, man and machine work hand in hand. Thanks to the numerous options for customised workplace design in combination with connected, intelligent supply solutions and worker assistance systems, the C-Parts supply of the future is a success. With the small-sized bins handling, the Smart Workplace offers a secure material supply even for the smallest parts requirements. The iPLACER®, which is used for the first time as RFID technology for the ordering process as well as for inventory management, has also proved to be an impressive solution at the workplace, owing to its highest degree of automation. As a result, the customers can benefit from an automated replenishment at any place, and thereby from a complete transparency of their consumption. It is possible to achieve an almost independent, logistical storage management for C-Parts with the help of iSCALE, a sensor-controlled scale that is directly connected to the Kanban bins and reports the requirements of production materials and other small parts based on their weight. And all this at the assembly line, material storage, Kanban storage location or directly at the assembly and workstation. The intelligent ORSY®mat vending machines are used for decentralised provisioning, comprehensive inventory overview and contactless and fully automated procurement to ensure that production-related consumables are always at hand. Absolutely smart!
Innovative technologies in line with modern C-Parts management can only be implemented by working hand in hand with one’s own customers and partners from science, trade and industry. Together with Siemens Healthineers, Würth Industrie Service sets the standard for innovative success every day. The C-Parts expert will continue to do everything necessary to prove itself as a strategic partner at par with Siemens Healthineers.
