Line-side Lean supermarket flow racks

Reduce transportation times, optimize space, and pick up materials using method.

Because they improve the edge line

I supermarket Lean sono sistemi di stoccaggio intelligenti progettati per alimentare direttamente le linee produttive attraverso un vero e proprio “supermercato” a bordo linea.

Questi sistemi utilizzano magazzini a gravità con logica FIFO (First-In, First-Out), che permettono di consegnare i materiali nell’ordine corretto e nel momento esatto in cui servono, secondo la filosofia pull e just-in-time.

A differenza dei magazzini tradizionali, i supermarket Lean non accumulano scorte, ma garantiscono un flusso continuo dei materiali, i quali sono sempre visibili e facilmente accessibili dall’operatore.

Continuous flow, full visibility and pull management

In all our gravity warehouses, the picking area is separated from the replenishment area, allowing the operator to pick without interruption while the replenisher, also known as a Water Spider or Mizusumashi, loads from the rear.


The immediate visibility of stocks functions as an integrated Kanban system, which is essential for maintaining a continuous flow of materials and correctly applying pull logic. This eliminates operational interference and unnecessary waste, creating a more efficient and smooth production line.

Less stock, higher quality and immediate control

Lean supermarkets contribute directly to reducing waste (Muda) by limiting WIP and unnecessary inventory. The very structure of the Lean gravity warehouse imposes natural limits on stock, avoiding overloads and making material management more intuitive. FIFO also improves quality: older material is consumed first, reducing the risk of obsolescence and facilitating checks.

 

Standardised and visible workstations help operators work faster, more accurately and more safely.

Ergonomics, modularity and a system that grows with the company

In addition to improving efficiency and quality, our gravity-fed warehouses guarantee optimal ergonomics thanks to inclines designed to reduce strain, twisting and repetitive movements. The result is a safer and more productive working environment.

 

Thanks to the Easysae® System, Lean supermarkets can be easily expanded or reconfigured according to changes in production: new layouts, new products to assemble or new assembly rhythms. A flexible investment that grows with the company.

The advantages of choosing Fomir

  • Ease of assembly: The tubular profiles of the Easysae® System use joints that are compatible with all profiles in the system, allowing for quick assembly and a consequent reduction in installation time and costs.
  • Modularity: The ability to expand or reconfigure the system without replacing the entire structure optimises investments over time.
  • Lightweight and sturdy: The tubular profiles of the Easysae® System combine ideal weight with excellent structural strength, facilitating the handling and positioning of storage systems without compromising stability.
  • Corrosion resistance: Aluminium guarantees durability over time, even in demanding industrial environments, reducing maintenance costs.
  • Long-lasting investment: The quality of the materials and the possibility of reusing them in different configurations guarantee excellent value for money in the long term.
