Agree The Buffering Task
Define the interruption or process variation the arrangement is intended to accommodate.
Accumulation & Handling
Manage product queues and handovers between machines with considered handling arrangements.

Keep Product Flow Moving Between Machines
Accumulation and handling systems create space for products to queue, buffer or change direction between production stages. They help coordinate processes that run at different speeds or experience short interruptions.
CPS reviews the product, required buffer capacity and upstream and downstream sequence before proposing an arrangement. Product stability, contact, release order and machine handovers are considered together.
Useful To Know
Does accumulation always preserve product order?
No. The release order depends on the handling arrangement. Tell CPS if first-in, first-out movement or product tracking is required.
How much buffer space is needed?
It depends on the production rate, interruption duration, product footprint and layout. CPS reviews these inputs together before proposing a buffer.
