SLIM Bin

Smart Inventory Bin for Real-Time Inventory Tracking

The Smart Inventory Bin by DFXBOT is a patented IoT-enabled solution designed for real-time inventory tracking and digital Kanban automation in manufacturing plants and warehouses. It converts traditional plastic storage bins into intelligent inventory assets with live stock visibility, automated alerts, and seamless ERP/WMS integration.

By embedding advanced sensing technology into bins, the Smart Inventory Bin eliminates manual stock counting and ensures accurate inventory data at all times. Whether deployed in automotive plants, vendor-managed inventory systems, or warehouse environments, it provides reliable, automated stock monitoring at the source.

How the Smart Inventory Bin Works

The Smart Inventory Bin integrates precision sensors into standard storage bins to continuously measure inventory levels. The captured data is transmitted to the SLIM Gateway and securely uploaded to the central server for processing and analytics.

From there, inventory data becomes instantly available on the management dashboard, providing:

• Live stock visibility

• Automated low-stock alerts

• SKU-level tracking

• Location-based inventory control

When stock reaches predefined reorder levels, alerts are automatically triggered, enabling proactive replenishment and uninterrupted production flow.

• SKU Details Display – Clear visibility of inventory data on the device and dashboard

• Visual Alert System – LED indicators highlight low stock conditions instantly

• Plug-and-Play Installation – Quick deployment without operational disruption

• Customizable Configurations – Available in multiple sizes and weight capacities

• Battery or Direct Power Options – Flexible deployment based on operational requirements

• Seamless ERP & WMS Integration – API-based connectivity for centralized inventory control

Benefits of Using Smart Inventory Bin

Implementing a Smart Inventory Bin system offers measurable operational advantages:

• Eliminates manual inventory counting errors

• Reduces stockouts and production downtime

• Prevents overstock and excess carrying costs

• Improves supply chain transparency

• Enables digital Kanban workflows

• Enhances decision-making with accurate real-time data

With accurate stock intelligence at the bin level, organizations gain better control over material flow and warehouse efficiency.

Digital Kanban Automation with Smart Inventory Bin

The Smart Inventory Bin plays a critical role in enabling digital Kanban systems. Unlike traditional card-based Kanban processes, this IoT-driven approach automates inventory signals in real time.

When inventory drops below predefined thresholds, automated alerts are sent to responsible teams or integrated systems. This ensures timely replenishment without human dependency, minimizing delays and maintaining lean operations.

Digital Kanban powered by Smart Inventory Bin helps organizations:

• Maintain optimal inventory levels

• Reduce human errors

• Improve production continuity

• Strengthen supplier coordination

Applications Across Industries

The Smart Inventory Bin is ideal for:

• Automotive manufacturing plants

• Industrial component storage

• Warehouse material management

• Pharmaceutical inventory control

• Retail distribution centers

• Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) systems

It is a core component of the broader Smart Inventory Management System implemented by DFXBOT, enabling complete visibility from physical inventory to live business decisions.
