Comparing and Contrasting SmartBin Cloud and SmartLabel Cloud

Image
If you’re looking for a way to automatically track your stock or install a smart inventory system, Bossard would like to introduce our SmartBin Cloud and SmartLabel Cloud options. Both can increase your efficiency and enhance your profitability. Differences The SmartBin Cloud connects a bin to a weight sensor, forming an independent entity used anywhere in your facility. It works well if you do not have a storage system set up for your stock or are thinking of changing your current system to something else. By using motion-triggered weight sensors, the SmartBin Cloud automatically tracks the stock inside the bin at every use (pick or refill). When the stock runs out, it can automatically place orders for more stock without any manual intervention. This can help you achieve a lean management approach. The SmartLabel Cloud is an intelligent label that attaches to every kind of storage container. It’s ideal if you’re already using a storage system that you’re comfortable with an...

Lower Your Total Cost of Ownership with SmartLabel Cloud

Image
Logistics is the key to ensuring things are where they need to be when you need them the most. Otherwise, everything comes to an abrupt halt. When referring to manufacturing processes, logistics can greatly impact the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).  The SmartLabel Cloud system does its best to ensure the Total Cost of Ownership is as low as possible to increase profit margins and productivity alike. How the SmartLabel Cloud System Works During the daily production cycle, your workers and inventory staff have a good idea of which materials are on hand versus how many are needed to continue work unabated. Whether the supply is a range of fasteners that you could order by the thousands or very large pieces that you order in much smaller quantities, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) makes it possible to automate the entire system and greatly improve workplace efficiency while lowering the Total Cost of Ownership .  When a worker or inventory specialist sees a particular i...

The Pros and Cons of Digitalization

Image
Digitalization, or the use of technology to improve how work gets done, may be the wave of the future. But at LPS Bossard, we understand how the process can be fraught with challenges and uncertainty. To make informed decisions about this path, check out its pros and cons. Digitalization Pros  Digitalization offers the following benefits:  Increased Productivity. While digitalization centralizes data, it allows retrieval from any desktop, laptop, tablet, or smartphone in your plant. Information goes to where your employees need it and exports to other applications for analysis, which can provide better insights. Your workers don’t have to go searching for what they need and entering it many times into different physical locations, which can cause errors. The result is efficiency, time savings, and better productivity.  Better Customer Experience. With your customers spending more and more time in the digital space, it makes sense to offer them seamless access to the sam...
