Track stock levels in assembly and logistics processes
With a wireless-based automated material requisition system, material flow becomes transparent, even for parts which are not inventory-managed. The nexy system from steute is ideal for this purpose. At the LogiMAT, the manufacturer will be showing how the latest nexy version can also perform other tasks.

Down to the last metre – Material requisition in a wireless network
How can automated guided vehicle (AGV) systems be integrated in a digital visualisation of material flow – even with parts which are not inventory-managed and even with AGV from different manufacturers? The answer is a wireless automated material requisition system.

Monitoring material flow in real time
A wireless-based system facilitates uninterrupted automated material requisition and can also integrate mobile transportation, such as AGV and dollies. This option is favoured by e.g. the automotive industry or manufacturers of household devices. Pre-configured applications simplify integration in existing IT infrastructures, and both new (wireless) sensors and new functions are currently available – including an "on premise" solution for the first time.

Automated material requisition in a wireless network - Remote data transfer for needs-based material flow
A "specialist" among wireless systems controls material flow in industrial assembly areas, leading to considerable efficiency and cost benefits for users. The wireless-based nexy system from steute can be integrated seamlessly in the company IT (ERP, MES) and, as a platform strategy, used not only as a communication channel for an automated material requisition system, but also for other tasks.

Multifunctional signal exchange - Wireless network improves material supplies in assembly halls
Information flow before material flow: this is an old principle established for e.g. ERP and warehouse management systems. Practice has shown, however, that even with this principle there can still be gaps in the material supply – especially in the manufacture of variants. A wireless-based requisition system can help in such cases, and can also assume additional tasks.

steute expands material requisition system - Assembly stock tracked to the last small part
With wireless-based material requisition systems, operators can maintain an overview of all articles within their production, even those which are not inventory-managed. At the LogiMAT, steute is showing the latest generation of its nexy system.

Automated material requisition systems - Wireless sensors manage replenishments to the "last metre"
Sensors which communicate by remote control have considerable advantages, especially in the field of intralogistics. They can be used anywhere, for example to track load carriers on their way from the warehouse to wherever the material is to be assembled. Replenishments are then needs-based. This is a good basis for an automated requisition system, which is also able to assume other tasks on the shop floor.

Wireless has the advantage - Automated material requisition on the shop floor
For a long time, wireless networks had a bad reputation in factories regarding their reliability. But the trend towards flexible (serial) production, e.g. in car assembly plants, has led to them increasingly being integrated in communication structures. Wireless protocols developed specifically for such applications are favoured.

More containers, please! Versatile wireless network for intralogistics
The best solution for precise management of material requisition in assembly and production halls is a wireless network which keeps its eyes and ears open – so to speak – and knows where replenishments are located at all times. This guarantees that all assembly points are kept supplied – without shortfalls, across the entire process.

Precision requisition management in intralogistics – Universal wireless network as a platform
"At one fell swoop" – this is the simplest way to describe the different ways of using a wireless network for requisition management. The nexy network assumes multiple functions and facilitates precise control of material flow in production, assembly and consignment.

Wireless networks for information flow
How are moving components and load carriers to be integrated in the company information flow? A wireless-based automated material requisition system is available for just this task and monitors stock precisely anywhere within the (material) flow.

Remote supply replenishment - Integration of AGV, dollies and eKanban racks
Why is an automated requisition system necessary if you already have an ERP or WMS? A good question. It is necessary if stock levels are to be managed not approximately, but precisely.
