| BarcodeStation simplifies the task of setting a carrier's current physical location to a single barcode scan. This feature is essential for efficiently sorting carriers into transport containers, confirming their arrival at destinations, or accurately placing them back in the archive shelf. Its ease of use and accuracy enhances the carrier handling process. |
In NOA's workflow solution, each carrier requires a specific dataset and a defined workflow, which it completes from start to finish. "Carrier registration" handles both the creation of datasets for new carriers and the activation of workflows for existing ones, ensuring smooth integration and progression through the system. |
In facilities processing large volumes of carriers, misplacement can occasionally occur despite careful logistics management. BarcodeStation's InfoStation mode addresses this by allowing a quick barcode scan of a misplaced carrier, providing immediate guidance to reposition it correctly in the workflow. This feature streamlines the correction process, maintaining efficient carrier management. |

BarcodeStation is a crucial component of actLINE, the family of highly specialized processors and interfaces that power all the workflows in NOA systems...
jobDB framework
In the context of an industrial digitization facility based on NOA's workflow orchestration system, jobDB, BarcodeStation is a vital tool in organizing efficient flows of carriers through the facility.
mediARC framework
BarcodeStation boosts efficiency not only in large digitization projects, but also in standard day-to-day archive processes involving physical carriers, boxes, shelves...
BarcodeStation, like all NOA solutions, is designed to run on commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware and to operate seamlessly on standard Windows operating systems. This approach guarantees that the hardware underlying NOA's solutions is not only easily maintainable and accessible but also highly reliable, offering users peace of mind with its long-term stability and dependability.
For optimal operation, NOA provides:
As a client application, BarcodeStation operates under a per-workstation licensing model. Within an industrial digitization facility, conducting a precise analysis of necessary work steps is crucial for determining the anticipated job throughput and the corresponding time requirements each day. This analysis enables the precise specification of the required number of workstations for the project, ensuring seamless operations and the elimination of production bottlenecks.
