Abstract
A system for requisitioning and distributing material in a manufacturing environment is provided. A manufacturing station stores and utilizes the material and produces a first missing resource signal in response to depleting a predetermined amount of the material in the manufacturing station. An intelligent storage unit stores the material. A computer system receives the first missing resource signal, responsively searches the storage unit, produces a material transfer command signal in response to the presence of the material, and produces a pull trigger signal in response to the absence of the material. A microcomputer produces a material schedule. A logic device receives the pull trigger signal and produces a depletion signal in response to the pull trigger signal and the material schedule.
