Unloading stations of EMS Loop was the bottleneck

• Using additional station improved the performance

Operating pattern of EMS carriers was blocking the tyre supply from building machines

• Using 2 tyres per EMS carrier improved the capacity by 25% and halved the carrier requirement

ASRS handling partial loads due to unavailability of two back-to-back tyres of same type 

• Ensuring that no order is left unattended at unloading station ensured the partial loads can be processed without affecting ASRS performance.

Inspection station and conveyor flaps led to mixing of tyres causing gantry to wait for back-to-back tyres of same type.

• Optimized working of conveyor flaps and proposed new buffer near inspection to send out similar tyres together
