Kanban Flow Racks for Lean Material Supply

05/18/2026

Kanban flow racks and supermarkets support lean production through efficient component provisioning based on the pull principle. The result: Reduced inventory, optimized cycle times, and minimized waste. Modular and configurable to your needs with flexible dimensions, conveyor belts, and castors, adapting perfectly to your requirements. For seamless material flow, centrally or directly at the workstation



Efficient material control is essential for lean production. Kanban flow racks implement pull and FIFO principles, reducing inventory and operating costs while ensuring continuous material flow directly at the workstation.

The Flow Rack XLean offers versatile use as a supermarket shelf or directly at the workplace for container precision. ESD-compliant available with conveyor belts and rollers in various colors. Individual customization tailored to your needs, modular use as standalone solution or in combination with existing systems.

The Rack EcoFlow is specially designed for heavy loads, featuring continuous rollers in an ESD-conductive version. Designed for high load capacities with individually configurable features and flexible dimensions. Modular design, expandable with accessories. Available as basic kit for self-assembly or pre-assembled solution.

The Flow Rack System LEAN features flexible flow racks with balls and guide rails. Colored rollers improve visibility, clearly visualizing material stock. Wide range of system components with rollers, guide rails, and ball-guided paths. Great design freedom with flexible dimensions and modular conveyor belts. Available as pre-assembled or self-assembly kit, easily expandable.

All variants are FIFO-compatible, Kanban-compatible, and available in ESD-compliant versions.
