Happy Friday Technetters !

In our SMT production we have some inventory of most of our parts. The
operators have a versatile job: they need to lookup the parts, mount
them on the trolleys of our Assembleon machines, and run the production
itself.
I'm glad that my management has now finally decided to implement a
feedershop separated from actual SMT-production, so that SMT operators
can spend their time working on efficiency of the line, with others
taking care of feeder-setup, counting parts and reacting on unexpected
shortages (although the latter will hopefully become a thing of the past
in the new system).

I'm looking for some do's and don'ts, tips and pitfalls that we should
be aware of when introducing such a separate feedershop. All comments
are welcome.

Best regards,
