While toolrooms vary in size and shape, one thing is consistent: no one wants to lose track of the tools required to complete the job. ToolHub offers right-fit technology solutions, which means there is a technology-based solution to manage assets in any size toolroom in any location, including mechanic stations, field service trucks and loose tool collection areas.
RFID technology is ideal for toolrooms with a clear entry/exit point with towers placed at the door to scan both employee identification as well as the tools entering and leaving the room.
For smaller tool rooms or less secure tool areas, barcode scanning allows technicians to use a portable, wireless scanner to check tools in and out. Pair that with pin pad authentication of each individual service tech, and ToolHub provides a cost effective, complete report of where and with whom each tool resides at any time.
When RFID and barcode technology isn't required, ToolHub also offers manual entry into the online management program to keep track of any tool in any location.
