Shared tools vanish between shifts
When multiple shifts share the same tools, they don't always make it back to the right place. Next shift arrives and can't find what they need.
Scan. Check out. Done.

Tools on the factory floor are expensive and easy to lose
Calibration tracking is manual
Torque wrenches, micrometers, and other precision tools need regular calibration. Without tracking, it's easy to miss due dates.
Tool crib bottlenecks slow production
Manual check-out at the crib creates wait times that eat into productive hours, especially during shift changes.
No accountability for lost tools
When a $500 torque wrench goes missing, there's no way to know who had it last or where it was used.
Calibration compliance is a challenge
Missing calibration dates on precision tools can lead to quality issues and audit failures. Tracking calibration on each tool's record keeps you compliant.
Tool hoarding between departments
Departments hold onto shared tools longer than needed because there's no system to request or track returns. OrbitEquip makes shortages visible instantly.

Frequently asked questions
Can I track tools by department, cell, or production line?
Yes. Create locations for each department, manufacturing cell, or production line. Organize tools exactly how your facility runs.
Does OrbitEquip handle calibration scheduling for precision tools?
You can track calibration dates and notes on each tool's record. Maintenance issues can be logged during check-in to flag tools due for calibration.
Can multiple shifts use the same QR labels?
Yes. QR labels are permanent. Each shift scans the same label to check tools in and out. The system records which shift member made the transaction.
What if operators don't have company phones?
OrbitEquip runs on any phone browser — personal or company-issued. Tools also have manual codes that can be typed in from any device.
Can I integrate OrbitEquip with my existing manufacturing systems?
OrbitEquip supports CSV import/export for data portability. For real-time integration needs, please contact us to discuss your requirements.
