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...

  When you need to move supplies from a central storage location to an individual work cell, Bossard can help with Last Mile Management and autonomous mobile robots. This solution saves time with your material flow by relying on paperless and intuitive instructions, shorter paths, and full transparency when replenishing supplies. How Last Mile Management Works Bossard implements Last Mile Management with autonomous mobile robots as follows: The work cell demands materials either automatically or because someone makes a request using a mobile device or desktop system.

After placing the needed materials in an autonomous mobile robot, it receives a route plan to replenish the work cell. To complete the delivery of materials, the robot then ...

How to Eradicate Wasted Movement in Your Industrial unit with Last Mile Management

Production is complicated, and there are a variety of ways that things can turn wrong. A specific part can go through many hands and be repositioned across many work areas before it develops a completed product. Parts and incomplete goods can be damaged, misdirected, and failed during this process. However, today’s factories are more demanding than ever before. The fourth industrial revolution mandates that parts be sited quickly, shipped automatically, and transported on time; all while being instantly traced in the cloud. Decreasing wasted movements and reducing human interaction are key factors of today’s smart factories. Because of today’s smart solutions, supply chain and material management processes can become faster than ever, meeting, and surpassing opportunities. With the correct way out, your factory’s B- and C-parts can be managed in a way that gets your goods to end users efficiently and transparently. SmartBins and SmartLabels Properly identifying, managing, and rep...
