    “We found GSM support staff very knowledgeable. When we needed help they would work with us until a solution to any problem was developed. Their after sales service is also excellent. And this level of service is very important to us as a failure of our systems would potentially halt production at the car plant.”

    BENEFITS

    • Save fines from miss delivering products
    • Save money from costly despatch errors
    • Improve customer relations
    • Streamline your despatch processes
    • Reduce the number of manual checks involved
    GSM has provided many Poke Yoke systems, often applied in the goods despatch function. Most systems require an element of customisation to suit specific customer requirements. A typical system application/configuration could be:
     
    Goods despatched to a customer must be packed with a specific quantity of the same part on a stillage.
    The system be easily configure with customer ID, part number and the correct quantity of parts per shipment. A barcode label containing the part number is attached to the part during manufacture or packing. This barcode is scanned by a short-range RF barcode scanner or Portable Data Collection Terminal (PDCU) as the product is loaded onto the stillage in the despatch area. The remaining number of parts required to complete a fully laden stillage is displayed on the PC screen. The process is repeated until the full stillage quantity is reached. When the stillage is full a message is displayed on the PC screen. A despatch note and label are automatically produced.
    The operator is prevented from despatching a partially full stillage because the despatch label cannot be printed. Overloading a stillage or loading incorrect products will trigger a system alarm.
    Every barcode scan is recorded together with time date and user.
     
    The system can produce management reports including goods despatched to each customer. Reports on operator activity such as, products scanned per despatch and, time taken to pack each stillage can also be produced.

    • The system is configurable for multiple customers and multiple products.
    • Tethered and/or RF barcode scanners may be used.
