Block based design, in simple terms, refers to the combination of certain elements of a product to form a subsystem with specific functions. This subsystem is used as a universal module and combined with other product elements to form a new system, resulting in a series of products with different functions or the same function but different functions.
The combination of green planning thinking and modular planning methods can simultaneously satisfy the functional and environmental characteristics of products. On the one hand, it can shorten the product development and production cycle, add product series, improve product quality, and quickly respond to changes in the market; On the other hand, it can reduce or eliminate the negative impact on the environment, facilitate reuse, upgrading, repair, and dismantling, retrieval, and disposal of discarded goods. Thanks to these advantages, modular planning has gradually evolved from a concept to a more sophisticated planning approach.
In the logistics industry that advocates for green, efficient, and efficient services, modular planning has become a popular concept for logistics equipment companies to transform their products and services.
For example, in the forklift rental industry, professional customers value service response time and emergency response skills for problems, which are the main competitive points and starting points for technological innovation of forklift rental companies. Through modular innovation in forklift construction, Zhenzhi Forklift has standardized the supply of components for routine repair modules, greatly simplifying the repair process.
Not only that, the modular plan of Zhenzhi forklift has greatly shortened the training time for repair personnel. It is reported that in the forklift rental profession, the cultivation of traditional forklift repair personnel usually takes about a year. However, at Zhenzhi Forklift, after a modular plan for vehicles, students only need to understand the structure of forklifts, learn to unscrew screws, and follow standardized procedures to carry out forklift repair operations. From forklift repair theory to operation training, students can usually graduate in three months. In the case of insufficient training personnel, they can complete the fundamental knowledge training of forklift repair in one month.
Inteno's new modular conveyor channel
Modular repair is the key to achieving fast and easy repair of forklifts. When a forklift encounters a problem, the repairman no longer needs experienced technicians to analyze and diagnose the problem like traditional Chinese medicine visits. Instead, after self inspection by the machine, the repairman only needs to remove the problematic standard parts and send them back to the company, replacing them with new standard parts, greatly improving the power of repairing forklifts.
As a world-renowned company, we also have a special preference for modular product planning. During the CeMAT ASIS period in 2015, Inno held a press conference on the "New Modular Conveyor Channel". Xia Benchun, Vice President and Asia Regional President of Inno Group, stated that this is the most significant product launch in Inno's 55 year history, which has enabled Inno to smoothly transition to the Industry 4.0 era and further improved its global channels.
It is reported that the new conveyor channel of Inteno uses plug and play modules and standardized components. All Inteno's key products can be freely combined through this channel to form a different system, assisting customers in quickly completing project plans and implementation, easily adjusting the existing system, and satisfying the constantly emerging new needs of the market.
