A scale under each bin counts what is inside and reports stock levels to your screen. No counting, no scanning, no stocktake.
Every bin reports how many parts are inside. The count updates as parts are taken and returned — no manual input needed.
Set a minimum for each bin. When stock drops below it, the bin is flagged and the people who order parts know before the line stops.
The count for every bin is always current, so there is nothing to reconcile. The quarterly count that takes two people off the floor goes away.
Bin counts push straight to your inventory system. Stock records stay accurate without anyone re-keying numbers from a clipboard.
Each scale plugs into the next with a short USB-C link along the base. One cable run powers a whole shelf and carries every count back — no wiring per bin.
Run one cable from the end of the chain to the Portal. It powers the scales and collects the count from each bin. One Portal handles up to 127 scales.
Plug the Portal into your network to see stock from any device, or connect a Display to read the bins right at the rack. Use either, or both.
Every bin shows its quantity on hand in one screen. Check what is running low, reorder before it stops the line, and skip the stocktake.
Same scales, same app, same connection. Add bins as you go — there is nothing to reconfigure and no software upgrade when you grow.
A cloud portal you open in a browser — phone, tablet or desktop. See what is in stock, what is running low, and what needs reordering. Connects straight to your ERP so stock records stay accurate without re-keying.
Tell us the parts you hold and we will put together a system that fits your store.
A slim scale slides under any standard storage bin. It counts the parts inside by weight and reports the number to the app — without changing your racking, your bins, or the way the line picks.
Parts go in and out the same way they always have. The scale reads the total weight continuously and turns it into a part count — one scale per bin, as many bins as the store needs.
Set the weight of a single part once. The scale reports how many are inside — from two heavy castings to five hundred washers. Each unit reads independently and reports through a single connection.
Choose the footprint to match the bin and the capacity to match the parts, from light fasteners to heavy components. Both size and capacity are built to order.
Select the scales and accessories you need and we will build a quote around your store.
Platforms are specified by footprint and capacity. Pick the size that matches the bin and the capacity that covers the parts inside — every combination below is a standard build, and anything beyond it is made to order.

Part-count accuracy depends on the weight of a single part relative to the platform resolution. Heavier parts count reliably on higher-capacity platforms; light parts are best matched to a 5 or 10 kg unit.
Every chain needs at least one Portal or one Display. Add a Portal for network and app reporting, a Display for a standalone read on the floor, or both.
Run the chain onto your network through the Portal, or connect a Display for a standalone read at the bench. Either way, one Portal serves the whole chain.
A cloud portal that turns scale readings into a live inventory system. Dashboard, alerts, trends, consignment tracking and ERP connection — all in a browser, nothing to install.
Total parts, number of containers, bins below minimum, offline scales, inventory value and changes today — all on one screen with recent activity.
Browse by part number, description or location. See on-hand quantity, total weight, unit weight, min/max levels, percentage full and status for every container.
Below-minimum, empty, offline, rapid decrease, unexpected weight change and container-removed alerts. Acknowledge each one so nothing gets missed.
Total inventory over time, daily consumption, most-used parts, slow-moving stock and inventory by location — all as charts you can filter by date range.
Chronological log of every replenishment, quantity change, scale disconnect and empty event. Filter by date, part, container, location or customer.
Organise containers by physical location. Each location shows its container count, total parts, low-stock items and last activity.
Filter by status, category or part number. See on-hand quantity, min and max levels, percentage full with a progress bar, and the last time each container was updated — all in one sortable table.
Current inventory, parts consumed, remaining stock, inventory value, last replenishment and full stock history — by customer or supplier.
Opening quantity, quantity used, closing quantity, unit price and total value. Export to PDF, CSV or direct to your accounting system.
Current inventory, low stock, empty containers, inventory by location or customer, consumption history, valuation, movement history and offline scales.
Continuous measurement means you can see exactly when stock changed, when containers were replenished, and what the stock level was at any point in time — not just the last time someone scanned a barcode.
Bin counts update the same stock records your purchasing already runs on. No double handling, no re-keying, no separate spreadsheet.
If your system is not on the list, the API covers it. Tell us what you run and we will confirm the connection before you order.
Part numbers, descriptions, unit weights, min/max levels and reorder points.

Every bin on your production line reports how many parts are left. Low stock is flagged before the shift that needs it — so reorders happen on data, not on someone remembering to check.
A missing fastener or fitting halts the whole line. The cost of one stoppage dwarfs the cost of the parts — but nobody knew the bin was low because checking means walking and counting.
Parts are reordered when someone notices they are gone, not when stock drops to a level that gives lead time to replenish. Every late order is a risk to the schedule.
Cycle counts pull people off the floor. The spreadsheet is out of date the moment someone walks away. And the count itself is only as accurate as the person doing it.
USB-C links each scale to the next. One cable run powers and reads a whole shelf of bins — no wiring per bin, no changes to your racking.
Each bin on the line sits on a scale. The scale counts the parts inside by weight and reports the number to the app — continuously, without anyone touching it.
Set a minimum for each bin. When stock drops below it, the bin is flagged and the people who order parts are notified — hours or days before it would stop the line.
Bin counts push straight to your inventory system. Stock records stay accurate without anyone re-keying numbers. Purchase orders can trigger on actual consumption.
Tell us the parts you hold and we will put together a system that fits your store.
The storeroom manages itself. Counts are always current, low bins flag automatically, and the quarterly stocktake that pulls two people off the floor goes away.
Part counts, low-stock flags and consumption trends — visible from any device without walking the store.
A technician walks to the storeroom, finds the bin empty, and waits for an emergency order. The machine stays down. The job that was supposed to take an hour takes a day.
The quarterly count takes two people off the floor for a full day. By the time it is entered, it is already wrong. And next quarter, the same exercise starts again.
Parts are drawn from bins but not always recorded. The spreadsheet says 50 in stock. The bin says otherwise. Purchasing reorders too early or too late because the numbers are unreliable.
Every bin reports its own count. Technicians take what they need. The system tracks what was taken and when — no sign-out sheet, no barcode scan, no data entry.
The count for every bin is always current, so there is nothing to reconcile. The quarterly count that costs two person-days simply goes away.
Consumption trends show exactly how fast each part is used. Set minimum levels and reorder points based on what actually gets consumed, not on guesswork.
Tell us the parts you hold and we will size a system to your store.
See consumption at every customer site in real time. Invoice on actual usage. Replenish before the customer has to ask — and stop losing accounts to empty bins.
The Portal connects the customer's bins to your network. You see every bin from your desk — no visits to count.
Your reps visit customer sites to visually check bins and guess reorder quantities. Every visit costs time, fuel and a person who could be selling. And the count is still a guess.
Stock sits at customer sites with no reliable count of what has been consumed. Invoicing relies on memory or periodic reconciliation that is always late and often wrong.
Without real data, reps over-fill bins to avoid complaints — tying up your cash. Or they under-fill and the customer runs out, which risks the account.
Every bin at every customer site reports its count to your dashboard. You see what is running low from your desk — no visit needed.
The system records exactly what was consumed and when. Bill the customer on actual usage, not on estimates. Built-in consignment and billing reports export to PDF, CSV or your accounting system.
Low-stock alerts tell you when to send more. Consumption trends show the right quantity to send. The customer never runs out and never has to chase you.
Tell us how many sites and bins you manage and we will build a system around your VMI program.
Every bin at every site reports to one dashboard. No more flying someone in to count. No more emergency freight because a bin went empty unnoticed.
Stock levels at Site A, Site B and the central warehouse — visible from one login, updated continuously.
Remote sites hold thousands of parts across scattered storerooms. The only way to know what is actually there is to send someone to count — and that means a flight, a vehicle and a full day.
A missing bearing or seal means a machine is down. Emergency air freight for a part that costs a few dollars can run into thousands. The real cost was not knowing it was gone.
Without data, sites hold too much of everything to avoid running out. Capital is tied up in slow-moving stock that sits in a storeroom for years.
Every bin at every site reports to the same cloud portal. Check stock levels at Site A, Site B and the central warehouse from one login — no travel.
Consumption trends show which parts move at which sites. Pre-position stock based on data, not on guesswork. Reduce emergency freight and reduce the buffer.
IP54-rated, 0–50 °C operating range. The scales handle dust, vibration and temperature swings on a mine site or processing plant.
Tell us the sites and parts you manage and we will design a system that covers them all.
Consumables drawn from bins are tracked automatically. Tie usage to jobs or customers, invoice on actuals, and see exactly where margin is going.
The app records every change. Billing reports show opening stock, consumption and closing stock — export to PDF, CSV or your accounting system.
Fasteners, fittings, adhesives, abrasives — they are drawn from bins but rarely recorded. Jobs are quoted with a consumables allowance, but actual usage is never measured.
If consumables are under-estimated in the quote, margin shrinks. If they are over-estimated, you are not competitive. Without data, it is a guess either way.
Someone notices a bin is empty and raises an order. By then the job that needed those parts is waiting. Rush orders cost more and disrupt the schedule.
Every bin records exactly how much was taken and when. The activity log and consumption reports show usage by part, by period and by location.
Billing reports show opening quantity, quantity used, closing quantity and value for any period. Export to PDF, CSV or directly to your accounting system.
Set minimums per bin. Low stock is flagged early. Consumption trends help set the right reorder points so parts are there when the job starts.
Tell us the consumables you hold and we will size a system around your bins.
You own the stock. It sits at your customer's site. The scales tell you what has been consumed, what needs replenishing, and what to invoice — without anyone counting or reporting.
See what every customer has consumed, what needs replenishing, and what to invoice — from one dashboard.
You own the parts but they sit in someone else's storeroom. You have no idea what has been used until someone tells you — and they often do not tell you until the bin is empty.
Billing relies on the customer reporting what they used, or on your rep counting what is left. Both methods are slow, inaccurate, and create disputes.
Consignment stock is capital on someone else's shelf. Without real data, you do not know the value sitting at each site, how fast it moves, or whether it is worth holding.
Every bin at the customer site reports its count to your dashboard. You know what was taken, when, and how many are left — without waiting for a report or a site visit.
The system records opening stock, quantity consumed and closing stock for any period. Generate billing reports by customer, by part, by site — and export to your accounting system.
Consumption trends and low-stock alerts tell you exactly when and how much to send. The customer never runs out, you never over-stock, and replenishment visits are planned — not reactive.
Tell us the customer sites you supply and we will design a system around your consignment program.
A scale slides under your existing bins and counts the parts inside — no RFID tags, no cameras, no proprietary containers. Retrofit in minutes, read stock levels from anywhere.
No need to replace your containers with proprietary bins. The scale sits underneath any standard storage bin and starts counting immediately.
RFID tags need to be applied to every part. Camera systems need line of sight. Weight-based counting works with any part in any bin — nothing to tag, nothing to scan.
Slide the scale under the bin, plug in the USB-C cable, and the bin is live. No racking changes, no wiring, no integration project. Start with one shelf and expand.
The count updates every second, not every time someone scans or checks. You see stock levels as they change — not as they were when someone last looked.
Every bin reports how many parts are inside, updated continuously as stock is taken and returned.
Set a minimum per bin. When stock drops below it, the system flags the bin and notifies the people who reorder.
Stock levels visible in a browser from any device. Connectors push counts to your ERP so records stay accurate automatically.
Tell us the bins and parts you have and we will put together a system.
Set the weight of one part and the scale counts the rest — from two heavy castings to five hundred small fasteners. Accurate, continuous, and completely hands-free.
The app shows on-hand quantity, unit weight, percentage full and status for every container — filterable by part number, location or status.
A person counting 500 washers takes time and makes mistakes. The scale reads the total weight and divides by the unit weight — instantly, every second.
Parts are taken and returned as normal. The scale counts what is in the bin without anyone pressing a button, scanning a barcode, or entering a number.
Fasteners, fittings, bearings, seals, spacers, pins, clips — any part with a consistent weight can be counted. No shape restriction, no tag required.
See how fast each part is consumed, by day, week or month. Set reorder points based on real usage, not estimates.
Every change is recorded — when stock was added, removed, or when a bin was replenished. See stock levels at any point in time.
Counts push to your inventory system automatically. Stock records stay accurate without manual data entry.
Tell us the parts you count and we will show you how the system handles them.
Traditional Kanban needs cards, scanners, two-bin setups and discipline. A scale under each bin gives you the same result — right part, right place, right time — with none of the overhead.
The dashboard shows what is low, what is empty, and what needs ordering — based on actual stock levels, updated every second.
Kanban relies on someone moving a card or scanning a bin at the right moment. If the step is missed, the signal is lost and the reorder does not happen.
Classic two-bin Kanban needs twice the shelf space. In a crowded production area, that space is not available.
You know when the card was triggered. You do not know how much is left right now, how fast it is being consumed, or whether the reorder will arrive in time.
The bin reports its quantity every second. You do not wait for a trigger — you see the level drop in real time and act before it reaches the minimum.
One bin per part, on the shelf you already have. No two-bin setup, no extra racking, no floor space lost.
See daily usage rates, trend charts, and estimated run-out dates. Set reorder points based on real consumption, not fixed quantities.
Tell us what you replenish and we will show you how the system replaces your current process.
Every bin becomes a connected data point. Stock levels stream to your ERP, MES or dashboard in real time — closing the gap between what the system says and what is actually on the shelf.
The cloud portal is a live digital representation of every bin on every shelf. What is on the screen is what is on the shelf — always.
Your machines report cycle times, your MES tracks production, but the bins feeding the line are still counted by hand. The inventory layer is the last analogue step.
The system says 500 in stock. The shelf says otherwise. Manual updates lag reality by hours or days, and planning decisions are made on old data.
Without continuous inventory data, you cannot calculate consumption rates, predict run-out dates, or trigger replenishment automatically.
Read bin counts programmatically from any system. Trigger events when stock crosses a threshold. Integrate with your MES, ERP or custom dashboard.
Stock levels update every second and are available via the API immediately. No batch jobs, no polling, no delay between the shelf and the system.
No factory rewiring. Scales connect via USB-C, the Portal connects to your network via Ethernet or Wi-Fi. Deploy on a single shelf in a morning.
Tell us what you integrate with and we will confirm the connection.
Screws, nuts, washers, clips, pins, O-rings — they cost almost nothing per unit but stop the line instantly when they run out. Automated counting makes them visible without the overhead of managing them manually.
Each bin has its own scale, its own count, and its own minimum level. Manage five bins or five hundred with the same setup.
A typical production line uses hundreds of C-part numbers. Counting them all takes hours. Not counting them means not knowing when they run out.
A box of washers costs a few dollars. The line stoppage when they run out costs thousands. The management overhead to prevent that costs more than the parts.
RFID tagging individual fasteners is impractical. Kanban cards for hundreds of SKUs are unmanageable. VMI contracts add cost and dependencies.
Set the unit weight once. The scale counts every part in the bin automatically. Five hundred washers or fifty bolts — the same method, the same accuracy.
Every bin has its own minimum. When a bin drops below it, the system flags it. You order the right part at the right time without checking every bin.
Nothing to apply, nothing to scan, nothing to lose. The scale sits under the bin and counts. That is the entire process.
Tell us the parts you hold and we will size a system to your store.
Cycle counts and quarterly stocktakes exist because bin quantities go stale. When every bin reports its own count continuously, there is nothing to reconcile.
Every bin is counted every second. The stock record in your system matches the parts on the shelf — not approximately, not after the next count, but now.
A quarterly stocktake pulls two or more people off productive work for a full day. Four times a year, that is eight person-days spent counting parts that could be counted automatically.
The count is only accurate at the moment it is taken. By the time it is entered into the system, parts have already been taken and the record is stale again.
Manual counts have an error rate. Those errors carry forward into stock records, reorder calculations and financial reporting until the next count corrects them — or does not.
The scale reads the bin every second. The count in the system is the count on the shelf. There is no lag, no entry step, and no human error.
See the stock level at any point in time — when it was replenished, when it was drawn down, and how fast it was consumed. The audit trail writes itself.
Continuous, timestamped inventory records support audit and compliance requirements without a separate stocktake exercise.
Tell us what you stocktake and we will show you how the system replaces it.
