Kachaka Pro moves finished goods on four DENSO lines

DENSO's Takatana plant, which makes automotive meters, uses Kachaka Pro on four lines with non-powered mechanical fixtures to carry finished goods and return empty boxes, eliminating about 58 daily trips of 22 m with boxes just under 30 kg; the approach is spreading to 10 sites.
