This paper focus on material feeding of hardware kitting which is going to be applied in industry. With the principle of hardware kitting the location of hardware on Kanban rack can be removed and they will be available in kits. By this research and implementation this alternative in industry we can save time and that time can be utilize somewhere else. Today in this competitive world where the demand for each product or current manufactured product is very high, so small issues are too important. Continuous material supply will increase our inventory value, time will be more for operators to work on and searching time will be increased. This research is done by collected data physically by visiting each work stations for different product specifications. Each and every objective in this research will be useful for better industrial solution. Keywords— Hardware kitting, sub assembly kitting, material feeding.
