Warehousing and Distribution

You are here: Home > Industry Solutions > Warehousing and Distribution

Every part of the modern supply chain uses technology to achieve utmost speed and efficiency—and the warehouse should be no exception.  Whether it’s shop floor data collection, or receiving and put away, or packing and shipping, managers and operators need to know how much merchandise is on hand, where it is, and where it’s going.  Real-time, reliable information is the key to everything from maximizing floor space, keeping inventory up to date, and avoiding costly mishandling of goods.

Case Study“Other departments at Seaquist Closures can request materials from a desktop PC, and that request immediately appears on the forklift operator’s GX-1200 screen. When loading a truck for delivery to a customer, the forklift operator types in the PRO number (pick up record) and confirms that all items are loaded. Immediately, the billing process is initiated. If the customer calls a minute later, our customer service representatives can respond with up-to-date details about the shipment.”

- Thom Raddatz, Warehousing   Manager at Seaquist Closures of   Mukwonago, Wisconsin

The warehouse floor is the focus of that information, but it can be a hazardous place.  That’s where Glacier’s rugged computers come in.  With a Glacier all-in-one computer—equipped with a user-friendly touch screen interface and wireless connection— when mounted on a forklift computer, your vehicle is integrated into the WMS and ERP more effectively than ever.  Suddenly, everyone can visualize the warehouse floor, from the forklift operator who doesn’t waste a foot of travel or a gallon of gas, to the foreman coordinating his team, to the salesman across the country who needs to know how soon he can fill a rush order. Shop floor data collection is streamlined and goods can be located, tracked, and organized by operators who know their equipment won’t break down under extreme conditions. 

Glacier’s rugged computers are versatile, ranging from industrial all-in-one computers and handheld computers, to tablet computers and rugged laptops. Practical and affordable, they’re ready to be integrated into a new or existing warehouse or distribution center in any industry.  And in addition to logistics, a Glacier industrial computer system can serve warehouse needs ranging from security to safety to labor management.
