Flexpipe's material handling case study: lean culture and creativity

Get more details about this case study at: https://www.flexpipeinc.com/us_en/cas... Minus Forty is a leader in the commercial refrigeration manufacturing industry. Buying custom structures from a catalog is very expensive. It’s often not very beneficial. This is why Minus Forty started to use the modular system in 2015. They didn’t know it was going to be this useful. Flexpipe modular systems were used to build this packing zone rack. This type of efficient storage has diminished internal transport and freed up space on the production floor. This ergonomic workstation now encourages workers to free up the workspace by putting away their tools instead of leaving them lying around. By reducing the size of the workstations, Minus Forty was able to streamline its production line. These custom-built carts helped Minus Forty considerably reduce manufacturing defects. The carts which were previously used were not adapted to their products and caused an increase in defects due to the friction between parts. Modular systems have now become inherent to Minus Forty’s modus operandi, though management had to prompt its employees to buy into lean manufacturing principles at first! Employees are more committed because they are involved the process of building the structures. Now, imagine what the Flexpipe modular system can do for you!
