Lean Replenishment Cycle

1

Empty Bin Detection

When a bin is emptied on the assembly line, its RFID tag is dropped into the smart drop slot or scanned, signaling a parts request.

2

Instant Storefront Queueing

The request is instantly sent to the warehouse storefront dashboard, alerting dispatch operators to retrieve parts.

3

Cycle Completion

Once the replenished bin is returned to the line, it is scanned to mark the request as fulfilled and close the loop.

Key Components

RFID Kanban Drop Slots

Line operators simply drop empty bin tags or cards into an RFID drop box, which automatically updates replenishment queues.

Live Storefront Shortage Dashboard

Store managers see real-time parts requests organized by priority, line number, and assembly station.

ERP Inventory Sync

Fulfillment details are written back to your ERP (SAP/Microsoft) to maintain accurate general ledgers.

POXO’s RFID E-Kanban solution eliminates line-stoppages and manual tracking errors, replacing them with a lean, digitized material replenishment flow.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an RFID Kanban drop box?

An RFID Kanban drop box is a shielded container equipped with an internal RFID antenna. When a worker drops a replenishment card or tag into the box, it registers the tag ID instantly, triggering a digital request to the warehouse.

Does this require constant operator interaction?

No. The system is designed to be completely zero-friction. Operators only need to drop cards/empty bins, and the digital backend handles the queue management, notification routing, and logging.
