Kitting and sub-assembly services increase manufacturing efficiency, aid lean manufacturing strategy

Many companies continue to perform non-value-added activities at the manufacturing site. This eats up costly manufacturing space and relegates manufacturing engineers to tasks like de-trashing or searching for parts. New Breed's solution for kitting and sub-assembly maximizes manufacturing efficiency.

Elements Of New Breed Kitting And Sub-Assembly Services

  • Analysis and custom design of prefabricated kits. New Breed can design and produce trays to hold multiple parts used together during manufacturing. We designed thousands of kits to support a kitting and aerospace sub assembly project for Boeing.
  • Kitting. Parts and tools are placed in appropriate kits at New Breed's nearby warehouse, where materials are staged. The trays that hold each kit are bar-coded, so inventory can be managed by individual parts or the tray itself. Trays are returned to the distribution center and reused.
  • Sub-assembly. New Breed experience extends to complex assembly projects that begin the manufacturing process.

Benefits Of Kitting And Sub-Assembly Services

  • Increase manufacturing efficiency by delivering parts in a format that minimizes time looking for parts or discarding packaging.
  • Reduce labor costs. Completion of basic manufacturing functions can be done less expensively in the warehouse environment.
  • Free-up space in manufacturing plant.
  • Re-packaging parts to aid in identification of items, reduce parts handling, and enhance safety at the point of use.
