AIC Systems is a Taiwanese electronics manufacturer that began producing printed circuit boards and has expanded into consumer electronics. They were facing problems with low productivity on their netbook assembly lines due to inconsistent operations, bottlenecks, and a spike in production demands. To address this, they implemented several solutions including adopting a batch manufacturing process with gravity feed shelves to reduce re-stocking times, assigning dedicated floaters to each line, and improving material, machine, and capital productivity metrics to better utilize existing resources and boost output.
