Conveyance is caused by long Distance between two machines / two locations.

This increases Material handling and waste of manpower and also chances of damages of products.

Waste of Conveyance can be reduced by Improvement in Layout , eliminating temporary storage methods which need again conveyance of material to final location.

Transportation waste occurs when people, product, equipment or information are moved more often or further than needed. During multi step processes materials and people are moved from process to process that are separated by distance and / or time. Instead of processes being sequential or positioned next to each other, they are far apart and require fork lifts, conveyors or other moving devices to be repositioned for the next step in a process. All of this movement adds no value to the process.

Look for movement of people, material or information that does not add value to a process.

Reduce by minimizing the physical distance the material and / or transportation travel with zoning and new layouts.
