RoboCrib has been designed to provide secure access to over 500 different items.
Imagine this incredible capacity in a system that has only a 30x30 footprint.
The variety of available bin sizes makes managing both small and large items a reality
(carbide inserts, drill bits, spray cans, tape, safety glasses, air tools, welding tips, solder, etc.).
HOW IT WORKS An operator simply pushes the issue button on the touch screen. RoboCrib prompts for the employee number and a PIN number (this can be typed or scanned in). You can include any overhead data that you choose (i.e. Department number or job number). Next the operator selects the item code or a description of the item wanted. The system then verifies the request against the AutoCrib database and initiates moving the carousels. Once the item is moved into position, the appropriate door is opened. The operator then can access the necessary item through a secure portal.
RoboCrib can control access to products by item, employee or job. Further, the system has the capability to track "Lot Control" numbers, and serialized items. Calibration control insures that no serialized item will be issued if it has fallen out of its authorized calibration cycle. AutoCrib software provides for F.O.D. (Foreign Object Debris) control. This insures that an employee returns the tool before they can issue another tool of the same type. Unlike other systems, RoboCrib is physically mobile and mounted on wheels. Therefore, this system is perfectly suited to manage maintenance and repair parts throughout large areas like airline hangers, shipyards and large manufacturing plants.
