At OneTwo, we are always searching for ways to make things easier on the workfloor. For nearly a decade, we introduced barcode scanners everywhere!

The last couple of weeks, I've been investigating how we could tackle another common issue, but now on the factory shop floor.

Very nice ,
we also have an array of development in b4a and b4j at work , we are using all kinds of readouts
from machines and CAD/CAM software and hand-scanners web instructions , training of new employees .. etc etc..
In our machine shop we run the same concept as you want to develop for the shop floor running for about 4 years now
We use tablets, pc,and phones .. about 150 units
Main challenge is the machining shop ... all the technology fails after a while , because of coolant dirt , things get
dropped ;) and other things . I get always in trouble when I have to replace things
need to know more feel free to contact me .
