Airmatic, Inc. - Advanced Silo Inventory Management

System By Airmatic Inc

Airmatic, Inc., is a Malvern, Pennsylvania, company that offers a full range of wholesale distribution and installation services related to power tools and industrial equipment. Airmatic, Inc., offers numerous case studies on the company website, including one about a silo inventory management system undertaken for a client that is a leading global supplier of chemicals for the construction and building industries.

Airmatic’s client was measuring material levels in silos through a basic drop line method that required an employee climb the stairs on the outside of the silos and use a catwalk.

Introduction

In times of bad weather such as snow, this was dangerous and the client wanted a solution that reduced safety hazards. Airmatic specialists selected a Binmaster Smartbob II inventory management system, which is employed by companies in several industries to monitor stored powders and bulk solids. Installation of the system enabled on-demand, accurate silo level readings and significantly improved employee safety.
