Integration with existing systems
Background
Our partner, an MRO service provider, identified the need to optimize the management of large power tools used in the production process. Due to the nature of the equipment (battery-powered devices with larger dimensions), an innovative solution was required for their storage, charging, and monitoring.
Problem
The standard vending machines previously used at the client’s workplace were designed for smaller items, such as consumables or small tools.
This is Our Expertise!
How Did We Solve the Client’s Problem?
Needs Identification and Proposed Solution
We proposed the L40 OEM vending machine—a locker-based vending system adapted for large tools.
We equipped it with charging sockets for each storage slot and an identification system that could distinguish between tools of the same type.
Adapting to the Existing Infrastructure
We emphasized that the L40 OEM vending machine could be integrated with the client’s existing drum-based vending machine. This enabled the client to manage both smaller consumables and larger tools within one cohesive system.
Testing and Implementation of the Solution
Our product was tested on-site, allowing the client to evaluate the system’s functionality. Upon approval, the vending machine was fully implemented.
Benefits of the Implemented Solution
Improved Tool Management
The client gained complete control over access to power tools, eliminating the issue of misplaced equipment.
Efficient Charging
Built-in charging sockets ensured the tools were always ready for use.
Precise Identification
The system allowed for accurate tracking of tool usage, encouraging better care by users and improving work efficiency.
Cost Optimization
By integrating with the existing drum-based vending machine, the need for implementing another system was avoided.
The proposed solution has completely transformed how we manage power tools in our production process. Precise control and ease of use have greatly simplified our storage and logistics operations.
