2,[object Object],“He who builds a better mousetrap these days runs into material shortages, patent-infringement suits, work stoppages, collusive bidding, discount discrimination--and taxes.” ,[object Object],- H. E. Martz,[object Object]

Material Handling (MH) Principles,[object Object],3,[object Object],Orienta-tion,[object Object],Unit Load,[object Object],Space Utlisation,[object Object],Planning,[object Object],System,[object Object],Standardi-sation,[object Object],Ecology,[object Object],Mechani-sation,[object Object],Ergonomic,[object Object],Energy,[object Object],Flexibility,[object Object],Safety,[object Object],Cumputerisation,[object Object],Simplifi-cation,[object Object],Gravity,[object Object],System Flow,[object Object],Mainten-ance,[object Object],Obsole-scence,[object Object],Layout,[object Object],Cost,[object Object]

Material Handling – Principles ,[object Object],Orientation - Study system relationships to identify existing methods, challenges, physical / economic constraints and establish future requirements/ goals,[object Object],Planning - Develop a plan for basic requirements, desirable options, and consideration of contingencies for all material handling & storage activities. ,[object Object],Unit Load – As practical,[object Object],Space - Effective space utilisation,[object Object],4,[object Object]

Material Handling – Principles (Contd.),[object Object],Systems - Integrate handling & storage activities (economically viable) into a coordinated operations. This includes, receiving, inspection, storage, production, assembly, packaging, warehousing & shipping ,[object Object],Standardisation - Standardise handling equipment & methods,[object Object],Ergonomic – Design MH equipment and procedures for effective interaction with system users taking into account human capabilities and limitations,[object Object],5,[object Object]

Material Handling – Principles (Contd.),[object Object],Energy - Include energy consumption of the MH systems and procedures when making comparisons or preparing economic justification,[object Object],Ecology - Minimise adverse affects on environment in selecting MH equipment/methods,[object Object],Mechanisation - Mechanise handling process where feasible to increase efficiency and economy in MH,[object Object],6,[object Object]

Material Handling – Principles (Contd.),[object Object],Flexibility - Use methods and equipment which can perform a variety of tasks under a variety of operating conditions,[object Object],Simplification - Simplify handling by eliminating, reducing, or combining unnecessary movements and / or equipment,[object Object],Gravity - Utilise gravity to move material wherever possible, while respecting limitations concerning safety, product damage and loss,[object Object],7,[object Object]

Material Handling – Principles (Contd.),[object Object],Safety - Provide safe MH equipment and methods which follow existing safety codes and regulations in addition to gained experience,[object Object],Computerisation - Consider computerisation in MH and safety systems, when circumstances warrant, for improved material / information control,[object Object],System Flow - Integrate data flow with physical material flow in handling and storage,[object Object],8,[object Object]

Material Handling – Principles (Contd.),[object Object],Layout - Prepare an operational sequence and equipment layout for all viable system solutions, then select the alternative system which best integrates efficiency and effectiveness,[object Object],Cost - Compare the economic justification of alternate solutions in equipment and methods on the basis of economic effectiveness as measured by expense per unit handled,[object Object],9,[object Object]

Material Handling – Principles (Contd.),[object Object],Maintenance - Prepare a plan for plant maintenance and scheduled repairs on all material handling equipment.,[object Object],Obsolescence - Prepare long range / economically sound policy for replacement of obsolete equipment / methods with special consideration to life cycle costs,[object Object],10,[object Object]

11,[object Object],“Your equipment DOES NOT affect the quality of your image. The less time and effort you spend worrying about your equipment the more time and effort you can spend creating great images. The right equipment just makes it easier, faster or more convenient for you to get the results you need.” ,[object Object],- Ken Rockwell,[object Object]
