ETON - The System

When the system was first developed, it was called "workplace system". Over the years it's been named many different things material handling system, hanging system, mover and Unit Production System (UPS) etc. Today in most cases it's simply called "The Eton system".

The Eton system transports all the pieces of one complete product through the manufacturing process. An addressable product carrier takes all the pieces of one entire unit (i.e. for trousers – backs, fronts, pockets etc.) through the different steps of production. Operations are performed at individual workstations. The end result is a cost-efficient product, processed from pieces to completion.

1. Load all the pieces in a product carrier.
2. The product carrier with the pieces will be routed through the different operation steps.
3. At every machine/operation the patented Eton chain will position the product ideally.
4.Up on completion the product arrives to an unloading station. The empty product carrier returns to the loading station.

Decreased work in process (WIP), improved space utilization, and increased productivity are but a few of the systems benefits.
