Technical Evaluation
The right smart technology solution starts with a sound technical evaluation. ICS analyzes your processes, applications, operating environments and requirements for ergonomics, connectivity, ruggedness, data capture, automation and integration.
Based on this, practical solution concepts are created for mobile computers, barcode scanners, label printers, RFID, network technologies, robotics solutions and further Auto-ID components. The goal is a solution that is functional, cost-effective and reliable in the long term.
Mobile Data Capture with AIDC, RFID, NFC, Voice and Sensors
Modern mobile data capture is more than traditional scanning. In warehouse, logistics, production, retail and service, different Auto-ID technologies are used – from 1D and 2D barcodes to RFID and NFC, voice applications, camera-based capture and sensor-supported solutions.
Which technology is the right one depends on the specific use case: barcode scanners are suitable for fast and precise code capture, mobile computers combine data capture with mobile data processing, RFID and NFC enable contactless identification, while sensors, camera systems or vision applications can provide additional condition, object or process data.
Mobile Computers and Data Capture Devices
Mobile computers, data capture devices, handheld terminals, rugged tablets, wearables and vehicle-mounted computers enable mobile data capture directly at the point of work. They support processes in warehouse, production, retail, transport, field service and service operations.
ICS supports you in selecting, testing, integrating, rolling out and operating suitable mobile devices – including AIDC technologies, accessories, device management and managed services.
Barcode Scanners for Logistics Applications
Barcode scanners reliably capture 1D and 2D codes in goods receipt, picking, production, shipping, inventory and service. Depending on the process, handheld scanners, industrial scanners, long-range scanners, presentation scanners or fixed-mount scanners are used.
ICS supports you in selecting suitable scanner technologies, evaluating read ranges, barcode quality and operating conditions, as well as integrating, configuring and operating the right solution.
Label Printers and Mobile Printing
Labels, receipts and markings are a central part of digital supply chain processes. In warehouse, production, retail, shipping and field service, printing processes must be reliable, fast and process-safe at all times.
ICS provides mobile, stationary and integrated printing systems for different areas of application – including printers, accessories, consumables, label production, integration and service.
Network Technologies for Wi-Fi, WWAN and Private 5G
Mobile data capture, Auto-ID, robotics and digital workplaces require stable and secure connections. ICS plans and implements network technologies for Wi-Fi, WWAN, private 5G and industrial connectivity.
From site surveys and radio frequency analysis to Wi-Fi planning and security concepts, ICS supports companies with robust connectivity for warehouse, production, logistics and field service.
Robotics and Automation
Robotics solutions, cobots, mobile robots, robotic assistance systems, AGV/AMR and service robots support companies in automating warehouse, logistics, production and retail processes. They help reduce manual work steps, shorten throughput times and make processes more transparent.
ICS supports you in evaluating, selecting and integrating suitable robotics solutions – from robot-based process automation in the supply chain to service robots for new customer experiences at the point of sale.
Browser and Web Technologies
Mobile applications on handhelds, vehicle-mounted computers and tablets require stable, secure and user-friendly interfaces. Industrial browsers and web technologies support targeted access to web-based applications and process interfaces.
ICS supports you in selecting, configuring and integrating suitable browser and web technologies for mobile workplaces in warehouse, production, service and logistics.
