JLT Mobile Computers proved critical to helping A/S Løgstrup-Steel conquer downtime issues in the warehouse, due to modern computer hardware and more robust and reliable plant-wide network connectivity. With such a wide variety of use cases come multiple and extensive bills of materials, all of which must be meticulously managed, re-stocked, tracked and picked correctly for each product variant. To fulfill these criteria, A/S Løgstrup-Steel utilizes a central warehouse management system that interacts with forklift-mounted terminals.
However, the terminals in the previous setup introduced some years ago faced difficulties switching between wireless access points as the trucks navigated the warehouse. The resultant crashes caused by the networking issues often entailed long reacquire or re-boot procedures, all of which cut into the warehouse's productive hours.
