Returnable container management: Optimizing logistics for manufacturers
This arrangement represents an excellent example of waste and cost reduction, because the containers are durable and reusable. Ideally, there should be little cost for the OEM associated with them beyond initial purchase: containers may need routine maintenance and are replaced as they wear out in the normal course of events. For the suppliers, there should be no cost at all. By driving waste a...
متن کاملReturnable plastic packaging flow in the automotive industry
In this thesis, companies using returnable plastic packaging are investigated from a green logistics’ perspective, focusing on the washing process performed after they are used. Returnable plastic boxes used to carry components are, in some cases, washed systematically to secure customer requirements. The purpose of this master thesis is to describe existing flows of returnable plastic boxes by...
متن کاملObject Oriented Approach and Java-based Distributed Simulation for Container Terminal Operational Management
In shipping port sector containers are the most dynamic and complex to manage. To provide adequate strategy for the increasing traffic, ports must either expand facilities or improve efficiency of operations. In investigating ways in which ports can improve efficiency, this paper outlines a container terminal simulation model and gives components architecture that are implemented with Java. The...
متن کاملQuantitative simulation approach to ameliorate deadlock concerns in automotive manufacture
Discrete-event process simulation is a decades-long friend of the industrial, process, or production engineer analyzing complex manufacturing process replete with heavy capital investment, complex material-handling requirements, and requirements for flexibility in the face of highly volatile marketplace demands. When these challenges are coupled with the economic gauntlet confronting the automo...
متن کاملThe impact of RFID on management of returnable containers
Inventory shrinkage is a common problem in the management of returnable containers. RFID-based container tracking systems have been proposed as a possible solution. Benefits of RFID-based tracking of returnable transport items such as pallets, kegs and boxes are documented in several case studies, but have so far hardly been analyzed from a theoretical perspective. In this article, we analyze t...
