About Parts stock reordering for industrial production teams

A production team needs replenishment demand detected as small parts are picked from their bins. Bossard combines SmartBin Cloud weighing devices with SmartLabel electronic displays and the ARIMS supply chain platform. The arrangement updates received stock information during use and triggers the selected ordering workflow when a configured threshold is reached.

Motion-triggered scales measure the bin after a pick or refill and pass the record through the connected cloud arrangement. The electronic label shows product information, order status and delivery dates at the point of use. A preset reorder point releases the arranged order automatically, while a label button supports manual ordering or replenishment confirmation. Larger scales and pallet arrangements extend the workflow to bulky materials. The platform consolidates inventory and order records, with mobile access and interfaces for the organisation's business systems.

Staff review the order state and supplied material through the label, dashboard or mobile application. Replenishment records join the same workflow so the team can follow demand through ordering and delivery. Deployment establishes the part associations, scale capacities, threshold values and supplier process. The connected records help staff manage recurring material demand at the production point, while the selected equipment brings the stock measurement and order information together.
