Barcode Automation

At Solarsoft, we love barcodes.  We like more advanced technologies like RFID too, but the humble barcode delivers a remarkable return at very low risk.  In distribution and wholesale businesses we see:

• More lines picked per person per day
• More on-time deliveries
• Fewer miss-picks
• Higher throughput and better storage utilisation
• Improved stock visibility and availability

In manufacturing too, businesses benefit from:

• Faster operations – particularly when using batch or serial number tracking
• Leaner production through improved scheduling of movements
• Improved quality and reduced defect rates

We have helped hundreds of companies across all the industries we serve to implement barcode automation.  Using barcodes to identify products and warehouse locations is the typical first step of automation.  Additional gains come from putting barcodes on pallets and totes as well as documents from manifests to invoices.

Naturally, all Solarsoft ERP systems support barcoding and our Warehouse and Logistics Systems team specializes in retrofitting barcode management to 3rd party ERP systems.

Wireless barcode scanners for warehouse and shop floor operation use WiFi technology for low cost and ease of installation.  Working with our partners, Solarsoft can specify, supply and deliver complete turnkey systems at prices that yield a very compelling return on investment.
