Material Handling and Transport Industrial Engineering


Required to:

Replace materials handling equipment, improve or add to their specifications.

Replace materials handling methods, or evaluate alternative methods.

Reorganize the system for a better flow of materials and movement of products.

Reduce costs through increasing productivity of  materials handling equipment, operators and methods.


No operation can be performed without material handling and transportation! 

Materials handling methods link layout operations to a functioning manufacturing system. Depending on the nature of your facility, materials handling costs account for 10 to 30 percent of your total operating cost, which may be even higher in case of distribution facilities. Most facilities have not yet been referenced to a materials handling plan. Methods have mostly developed spontaneously or been projected by equipment suppliers and consultants. Likewise, the individuals appointed as materials handling engineer are mostly individuals without as formal education in this field. In the absence of analyses, many of them adopt the approach “me too” based on what others have done.


IISE  materials handling course

IISE  materials handling course is based on Systematic Handling Analysis (SHA), which is the most organized approach designed to analyze and evaluate materials handling methods. Developed by Richard Muther and Knut Haganas and refined through an application history of more than 40 years, Systematic Handling Analysis accompanies Systematic Layout Planning (SLP). SHA is available in printed form and is used by thousands of planners worldwide.

The course on SHA methods give equal weight to facility and warehouse subjects. It is needed by those who have to apply the following procedures:


Replace materials handling equipment, improve or add to their specifications.

Replace materials handling methods, or evaluate alternative methods.

Reorganize for a better flow of materials and movement of products.

Reduce costs through better materials handling methods.

SYSTEMATIC MATERIALS HANDLING ANALYSIS & SYSTEMATIC CONTAINER PLANNING

2 days, 1.4 CEUs

Note: This course is only offered by our qualified training provider in Turkey.

Overview

No operation can be performed without transportation! 

Materials handling methods link layout operations to a functioning manufacturing system. Depending on the nature of your facility, materials handling costs account for 10 to 30 percent of your total operating cost, which may be even higher in case of distribution facilities. Most facilities have not yet been referenced to a materials handling plan. Methods have mostly developed spontaneously or been projected by equipment suppliers and consultants. Likewise, the individuals appointed as materials handling engineer are mostly individuals without as formal education in this field.
