Make cutting tools, safety supplies, welding supplies, inserts, drills, abrasives and other MRO-related items available in a secure format, 24 hours a day with AutoCrib Remote Dispensing Station. Up to 70 bins dispense single items from a simple helix/coil system - a system with few moving parts, so maintenance (if any) is amazingly minimal.

RDS speaks 4 languages, and can locate items in other machines or cribs within the AutoCrib system. RDS can also force the use of regrinds.

Optional electronic tool lockers (AutoLockers) can be attached to the side of the machine to issue and return large, bulky items or durable items such as gages.

VendVerify ensures the issue of ONE, AND ONLY ONE, item per request

New laser “vend verification” system verifies that the item has been dispensed before decrementing inventory in that bin. This industry-leading system works like no other — moving incrementally, to guarantee that RDS will dispense one - and only one - item every time. This eliminates the frustration of not receiving the desired item, and the inventory error of issuing two.

Access control, cost and usage reporting, plus purchasing and receiving system

RDS is controlled by AutoCrib Software (client/server or web-based AutoCrib.net). The system records the issue of each item, so usage is tracked by employee, job, department, shift, and budget.

When inventory runs low, the system automatically reorders from the supplier. The software features an Intelligent Dashboard with key metrics visible at a glance on one screen. Over 200 reports are pre-loaded.
