How it works

Our simple, secure and safe solution only takes a couple of minutes.

Firstly, operatives identify themselves
to the machine either by tapping their personalised smart card on the built-in wireless reader, entering a PIN code, or for added security both a PIN code and card.

 

Next, tooling is selected using the full-colour touchscreen, much like you would do when navigating through a smartphone to make an online purchase. Information on the tool is included to help the user make the right selection for their application.

Finally, the tool is dispensed in its own telescopic container to eliminate both the risk of injury to the operator and damage to the tool.

Full usage monitoring

Our simple, secure and safe solution only takes a couple of minutes.

Reporting is done at the click of a button, so you can manage your tooling stock from any web browser at any time, anywhere.

 

As experts in both tooling manufacture and industrial vending, we couldn’t find a back-end system that suited the specific needs of the engineering industry, so we developed our own.

Rigorously tested in the field, our system is cloud-based and gives you real-time reporting and full remote access. It’s robust enough to continue vending even if your internet connection goes down, and clever enough to automatically update itself when back online.

 

Data capture is via a 4G platform. There is an additional cost for this facility. Other options include WiFi or fixed ethernet connectivity.

Detailed reporting can be requested by the operator, department, machine, cell or product, and can be exported to PDF, CSV or email.
