Cardplan®: insert kanban and heijunka board for cards, orders and visual management
Overlapping pockets, one below the other, into which you slip kanban cards, work orders or sheets: only the edge of each document remains visible, with the information you need. The ORGATEX Cardplan® board becomes a traffic-light kanban board, a time-slot heijunka board or a visual management board for orders, jobs and staff. Metal panel, cards from DIN A8 to A4, width 250 or 500 mm and four heights.

Why choose it
Read the edge, not the whole sheet
Each pocket leaves the edge of the document on view: code, customer, deadline. Dozens of cards in little space, tidy.
Inserted and removed by hand
The pockets hold a single sheet or small bundles up to 2 mm in place: the card stays in position until you take it.
Modular and expandable
The panels are placed side by side in the width you need and combine with Cardplan® whiteboards of the same height.
Zones and headings
Coloured corner pieces for the traffic light, dividers for the columns and label holders for the headings turn the board into a kanban board.
Choose it if…
- You manage many kanban cards or orders and want to read them at a glance from the edge.
- You need a heijunka board with columns for time slots or days.
- You want a board for visual management of jobs, orders, maintenance or staff shifts.
- You use cards or documents of different formats, from DIN A8 to A4.
Choose another solution if…
- You want one card per position, in interlocking boxes, with a colour traffic light: Systembox →
- You want to start with a complete kanban board, already sized: Kanban Starter Set with Systembox →
- You need a smooth surface next to the board, for writing or fixing Systembox: Cardplan® – Whiteboard →

One board, many uses
Cardplan® is a kanban board and a visual management board: only what you put in the pockets changes.
- Traffic-light kanban board: one column per code; the cards of the empty containers enter from the bottom and the green, yellow and red corner pieces tell you when to produce
- Heijunka board: columns for time slots or days, rows for product or line; each pocket is an order in the levelled sequence
- Lot size kanban: the cards accumulate up to the defined lot, marked with the coloured corner piece
- Orders and jobs: work sheets by department or machine, moved column by column as they progress
- Staff and maintenance: one card per person or per intervention, on the department board or the shift meeting board
With the board stand on castors the board moves to the department meeting point.

Specifications

| Visible edge mm | 30 |
| Panel height mm | 440 |
| Rows | 11 |
| Width mm | 250 |
The card height is the height of the document to be inserted: for example, 148 mm corresponds to A5 landscape or A6 portrait, 297 mm to A3 landscape or A4 portrait. The visible edge is the part that sticks out of the pocket and stays readable; the rest of the document sits inside the pocket. With a 100 mm card and a 30 mm visible edge, 70 mm therefore stay inside.
It depends on card height, visible edge and panel height: from 2 rows (297 mm card, 90 mm edge, 440 mm panel) to 59 rows (74 mm card, 20 mm edge, 1244 mm panel). For the same panel, a taller edge shows more information but reduces the rows: with 148 mm cards on a 440 mm panel you go from 14 rows with a 20 mm edge to 5 rows with a 60 mm edge.
On the wall with the aluminium Z-holders or with the powder-coated steel horizontal supports. On metal surfaces with the neodymium magnetic supports, for panels up to 1085 mm high and boards made from August 2016. Or on the board stand on castors, which takes panels from 440 to 1244 mm high.
Yes: boards are placed side by side to the width you need and extended later, also with Cardplan® whiteboards of the same height (440, 795 or 1085 mm). The versions for 210 and 297 mm cards already have aluminium side frames.
Boards for 210 and 297 mm cards have aluminium side frames on both sides, except six 500 mm wide versions: K524-15-G, K534-15-G, K515-90-G, K525-90-G, K535-90-G and K543-30-G. The aluminium side frames can also be ordered separately.
Self-adhesive vertical dividers create the columns. The traffic-light angles slip onto the pockets: in red, yellow and green they mark the kanban zones, in light grey they act as a horizontal divider. Transparent label holders clip onto the pocket to label rows and columns.
Start from the document you use: its height is the card height (for an A6 portrait kanban card choose 148 mm). Then decide how much of it must remain legible: with 20 mm you see a line of text or a code, with 40–60 mm also the description and quantity. A taller edge shows more information but reduces the pockets per panel.
KST1020 for Cardplan® panels 440, 795 and 1085 mm high; KST1220 for panels 1244 mm high.
You dedicate one column to each part number. When a container is emptied, its card goes into the first free pocket from the bottom. With the corner pieces of the traffic-light system you mark the green, yellow and red zones on the pockets: when the cards reach the yellow you plan, in the red you produce immediately.
Yes: the bracket is adjustable and takes panels 440, 795, 1085 and 1244 mm high. For a tidy board it is best to use the same height for panels placed side by side.
If you mark a single column, choose the length closest to its width: 120, 155 or 215 mm (codes A7, A6 and A5) and the short sizes of 75 and 85 mm for narrow columns. To mark the full width of the panel use 250 or 500 mm, like the panel.
Yes. The columns become the time intervals, for example 30-minute slots, and the rows are the products or lines: in each Systembox you place the card of the order to be produced in that slot. This way the sequence is levelled and visible to everyone. If you use cards or orders in different sizes, also consider the Cardplan® insert board.
Yes. Divide the panel into columns with the vertical dividers, one per time slot or shift, and label rows and columns with the label holders. In each pocket place the card of the order to be worked on in that slot: the levelled sequence is visible to the whole department.
Yes: it is a board for work orders, jobs, maintenance tasks, attendance and shifts. The cards move from column to column as they progress. By placing a Cardplan® whiteboard next to it, you also have space to write the objectives, notes and actions of the department meeting.
Yes: the panels are placed side by side and others of the same height can be added, including Cardplan® whiteboards. On the mobile stand the total width goes up to 2040 mm; on the wall it depends on the brackets you choose.
