6 Ways Mobile Devices Improve the Warehouse Management Process
The smart factory envisioned by Industry 4.0 hinges on a digital revolution, where Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) and other data generated by embedded devices and other manufacturing processes, drive all operations. This data is constantly used by machines to run production on mostly autonomous cycles, alerting manufacturing personnel when needed. Enterprises that can leverage data in this way can improve manufacturing uptime and profitability and gain a competitive edge. Today’s lean manufacturing requires seamless task management from factory floor workers, plant managers and beyond. Android mobile solutions take away the painful chores associated with task management and deliver powerful processing capabilities on the go. Here are six ways that mobile devices can modernize task management in manufacturing enterprises.
