What benefits does the SureDisplay™ ESL package offer?
Easy and Quick Operation
With the combination of blinking LEDs, two interactive buttons, and a user-friendly mobile application, even unskilled workers find it easy to find items.
Reduced Human Errors
There is no need to scan barcodes for each item and items can be simply picked off the shelves using the visual signal from LEDs. This means fewer human errors, more productive staff, and increased manufacturing efficiency.
Real-Time Speed
With a fast update speed, the person picking can immediately see the blinking LED of the SureDisplay™ ESL which indicates the shelf to pick items. Subsequently, the ESL will show the latest quantity available in the bin in a few seconds after the picking process is completed.
Long Battery Life
LED usage is one of the largest battery-consuming factors for ESLs. Thanks to extended battery life SureDisplay™ ESL LEDs have a battery life of 7-8 years even after heavy usage. That is several times more than your average ESL.
Multi-color Operation
SureDisplay™ has a 7-color LED, allowing it to be used in various ways. A specific color may be assigned for error indication, low battery status, or to mark the last item of an order list.
Geolocation
SureDisplay™ ESL gives operators the capability to locate all items on a digital map, thanks to location tracking technology. Even inside large distribution centers, workers can see the locations of all items on their list calculate the optimal movement, and work efficiently.
SureDisplay™ Electronic Shelf Label solution in use
The SureDisplay™ solution is already in use with two automotive manufacturers in India. In each plant, the savings in paper alone have been calculated to be around 40MT a year!
