Lineside Inventory Solutions
Smart Lineside Inventory Starts Here
Bring tools, consumables, and production materials closer to where they’re needed — with better control, visibility, and accountability. SmartBee solutions help manufacturers reduce time spent searching, issuing, counting, and replenishing inventory while improving traceability across the shop floor. From cutting-tool management and compact dispensing to weight-based inventory control and high-density storage, there’s a configuration built around how your operation actually works.
Reduce waste. Improve access. Know what you have — and where it’s going.
Challenge
What it looks like today
Too much manual inventory management
Employees log transactions manually, count inventory and spend time issuing or returning materials.
Poor inventory visibility
You don't know exactly what you have, where it is or when it needs replenishment.
Waste and uncontrolled consumption
Tools and consumables disappear, are over-issued, expire or are replaced unnecessarily.
Slow material access
Employees wait for approvals, search for materials or rely on someone else to issue them.
Limited accountability
It's difficult to determine who took an item, how much they used and whether it was returned.
Disconnected information
Inventory, procurement, ERP and production systems don't share accurate real-time data.
Why SmartBee?
Purpose-Built Software
Manage access, inventory, traceability and usage from one connected platform.
Industrial-Grade Hardware
Built for demanding manufacturing environments and frequent daily use.
Connected Operations
Connect inventory and tool-management workflows with ERP, MES and broader production systems.
Built to Scale
Start with the storage and dispensing requirements you need today and expand as your operation grows.
Smart Storage, Bee Efficient.
