Weight‑Based inventory systems
Periodic Automatic Replenishment (PAR) inventory automation for vendor‑managed inventory (VMI)
High‑ and low‑precision options for any industry
Optional per‑bin wireless scales for workcells
Broad range of software and reporting options


Weight‑Based Inventory System
A wide range of hardware options meets diverse industry needs—from precision hospital inventory to low‑cost fastener bins—with options starting at $75 per scale.
The platform employs two types of weight‑based scales to measure part weights: a “hanging” style and a “shelf” style model. Each device uses a load cell to calculate inventory changes for each bin, displays updates on a front‑mounted LCD, and transmits the data to a cloud server for processing.
Users access the software via a web‑based interface on any internet‑enabled device, including mobile. The robust suite offers numerous application modules, delivering a full‑featured inventory management system that meets virtually any requirement. Automated ordering can be set up for fully automated ERP workflows or for regular purchase‑recommendation reports for your procurement team.

System features
- “Hanging” scale models, mounted on a bracket attached to a louver panel on a wall or rack
- “Shelf” model, where the scale rests on a shelf with an optional liner
- ItemMaster software for managing all item master information
- The Inventory software handles all inventory management operations
- Purchasing module to integrate ordering, invoices, and real‑time inventory levels
- Additional applications provide advanced functionality, including reports, dashboards, building maps, and more

Industry‑leading hardware usability
Each device features a LCD display that shows current stock levels, minimum safety stock policies, product type, or any user‑defined field. A comprehensive interface is built into each unit, enabling a variety of operations directly at the hardware. Custom scales are available for virtually any application.
Optional wireless capability is offered on all scales, enabling next‑generation mobile storage integration. A mobile cart can seamlessly track real‑time inventory levels as it moves across large campuses.
