Teklynx barcode labeling software solutions help organizations advance lean manufacturing
TEKLYNX International continues to help manufacturers realize business process efficiencies by offering simple yet effective solutions leveraging the principles of lean manufacturing. TEKLYNX’ efforts are critical as more organizations look to implement processes to reduce costs and streamline every stage of their product cycle in an increasingly competitive digital economy.
Lean manufacturing is a production philosophy comprising principles designed to eliminate or reduce waste of resources, including time, materials and production costs. Any resource with no added value for the company or its customers is considered waste. With years of experience in helping organizations initiate or enhance application of lean principles, TEKLYNX recently published a resource guide, “Do More with Less: Labeling Software and Lean Manufacturing,” which focuses on initiating and enhancing the application of lean principles.
“While more companies today are recognizing lean manufacturing’s potential to enhance efficiencies, help them remain competitive, and boost the bottom line, they are often perplexed about how and where to begin,” said Laura Henderson, General Manager of TEKLYNX. “TEKLYNX is committed to helping our clients identify and capitalize on opportunities to make measurable improvements in efficiency. For many, adopting barcode labeling software can be a manageable step with significant and far-reaching organizational impact.”
For TEKLYNX clients, database integration is the most common lean manufacturing step. Integrating TEKLYNX barcode labeling software, particularly with Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems, enables information to be pulled directly from other business systems onto labels, reducing labeling errors and slashing production time.
Automation is another critical implementation. “Because the benefits of automation are so powerful, it is becoming a key focus for companies evolving to lean manufacturing,” Kane said. “Automating barcode labeling software, for example, eliminates manual human error while cutting down on time needed for label development, and this is particularly effective in integrated systems.”
