Our friends at BarTender and Zebra have written up an awesome case study on our work with OmegaFlex, a Pennsylvania-based manufacturer of flexible metal hoses, braid products and highly engineered assemblies. It outlines the printing challenges faced by OmegaFlex, and the solution designed to increase workflow and to proved better data management.
With BarTender and Zebra ZD420i desktop printers, we were able to create a printing solution that allows OmegaFlex to better manage their workflow. With 12 Zebra printers across 12 different workstations, workers are able to print quality labels fast and efficiently. OmegaFlex was able to print by connecting to SYSPRO and by using a product from Red Lion Controls, in this case, using G10C1000 Graphite series HMI panels with free Crimson programming software — to drive crucial labeling processes. OmegaFlex has seen its throughput rates jump by up to 70%. The operators have increased their pressure tests from 20 per hour to more than 30 per hour. Plus, the new system has significantly reduced the potential for human error and saved two hours weekly for supervisors in their checks on operator work. The automated labeling solution has also given OmegaFlex greater control over its data, only allowing supervisors or database administrators to manipulate data, leading to improved data accuracy and accountability.
