Inventory Management System

By now, most businesses have invested in a scale system to assist in counting small parts, kits, sub-assemblies, or finished goods. In principal, most counting scales operate in the following way:

Due to differences in scale sensitivities and a wide array of part sizes, some companies have invested in several scales. The scales may have integrated printers. The printers may be capable of printing bar code information in addition to the human readable component. The scales may also be battery-operated. Battery operation is convenient because it allows a scale operator to take the scale to the job, rather than wasting productive time in bringing the parts back to the scale. Finally, the scales may include an integrated bar code reader.

Most companies do not have their scales networked together. In other words, the scales don’t share information or “talk” with each other. However, networking scale equipment is becoming increasingly important. Further, if it has been a long time since the scales were purchased, some of the good fundamentals that were shared at the time of the sale by the scale dealer may be forgotten.
