TouchVend TouchVend

The TouchVend tool vending machine provides 24 hour a day access to your high value, fast moving and critical inventory items in a secure helix/coil-dispensing format and feature rich touch screen interface. The touch screen allows users to search for items system wide and view detailed notes as well as digital images of the items. In its standard configuration this automated inventory management system can be used a capable point of use cabinet that can dispense safety supplies, welding supplies, cutting tools and other MRO related items. Optional electronic tool lockers can be attached to manage oversize and returnable items.

This tool vending machine has seen many recent advances including its laser "vend verification" system. The system verifies that the item being dispensed has been dispensed before decrementing inventory in that bin. If the system does not detect that an item has broken the laser beam shortly after the dispense command, it tries a second time. This eliminates the frustration of not receiving an item due to potential stocking or jam errors.
