CHARLOTTE, NC–(Marketwired) – Falcon Fastening Solutions®, a distributor of specialty fasteners and other Class C production components used in high-volume manufacturing assembly, is pleased to offer the new Actylus™ smart bin system, a product of Apex Supply Chain Technologies®. This cloud-based intelligent Kanban system replaces the need for manual counting, flags, labels and cards.

The smart bin technology has been designed to provide a solution to stock replenishment issues, sending automated stock alerts and re-order notifications. The system eliminates the need for counting trips, safety stock and emergency orders. It aims to keep lines up and running, boost supply chain productivity and grow bottom-line revenues.

Powered by Trajectory Cloud™, a secure business intelligence platform that integrates and connects to existing systems, the Actylus™ smart bin system improves productivity, visibility, reliability and accessibility throughout a business operation. The cloud is able to monitor the smart bin solution to see when items need restocking, simultaneously tracking usage patterns and trends through a reporting system. Stock levels can even be checked via phone or email anytime and anywhere.

The Actylus™ automated replenishment system is available in a range of system configurations, and is capable of storing and monitoring any item traditionally stored in bins, from electrical components to healthcare supplies. It is fast and easy to set-up, and interior lights keep bin contents visible to ensure swift selection.

Giovanni Cespedes, VP at Falcon Fastening Solutions, commented: “Falcon is committed to providing US manufacturers with the latest value-added technology to increase efficiency in their supply chain. The Actylus™ system supports our commitment by automating replenishment processes and reducing the cost and time to stock bins by 30 percent or more, significantly improving productivity and efficiency in a business.”
