Delivering the future of manufacturing efficiency & workflow management

Introduction
In manufacturing’s high-speed landscape, precision, speed, and real-time data are essential. Ensuring production goals are met, quality remains high, and downtime is minimized. From receiving materials to shipping finished products, every step must be streamlined and transparent.

Advanced scanning devices, handheld scanners, mobile computers, ring scanners, scan engines, and electronic shelf labels (ESLs), are transforming operations by automating data capture, increasing visibility, and enabling fast, coordinated workflows.

The challenges in manufacturing workflows
Manufacturers face a variety of operational challenges, including:

  • Locating or tracking materials quickly on the work floor
  • Manual data entry leading to errors in production
  • Mislabeling causing costly quality issues
  • Poor coordination among production, quality, and logistics teams
  • Growing demand for real-time insight into production and inventory

How scanning technologies upgrade manufacturing processes

Advanced scanning solutions help manufacturers achieve faster throughput, reduce waste, and maintain product quality. By digitizing and automating data capture at every stage, from goods receiving to assembly and packing, scanning technologies improve operational accuracy and efficiency.

How ESL transforms manufacturing workflows

Electronic Shelf Labels (ESLs) are revolutionizing work floor communication and material handling. By providing real-time updates for bin locations, assembly instructions, and production priorities, ESLs minimize confusion, reduce paperwork, and help keep production on track. ESLs also support pick-to-light applications, ensuring operators can quickly locate and select the correct parts for each job, improving both speed and accuracy.

Electronic Shelf Labels

  • Display live material counts and bin assignments
  • Update assembly instructions and job sequences instantly
  • Reduce errors in part selection and assembly processes
  • Improve coordination between production, maintenance, and logistics teams

Opticon ESL

  • Compact and lightweight design for prolonged use
  • Wireless connectivity for instant updates
  • Integrated scanning for part verification and workflow confirmation
  • Long battery life for uninterrupted shifts

Benefits of implementing esl solutions

  • Real-time accuracy: Always up-to-date material and production data
  • Labor efficiency: Reduce manual label changes and paperwork
  • Error prevention: Minimize mistakes in part picking and assembly
  • Improved workflow coordination: Keep all teams aligned with the latest priorities
  • Sustainability: Reduce paper waste from printed work orders and labels
  • Increased output: Speed up production and assembly with clear, dynamic instructions
