Reducing paper use offers numerous benefits for companies. Digitizing production tracking sheets is one of the levers to achieve “zero paper” and generate productivity gains.
In an industrial context where the goal of “zero paper” is becoming a priority to reduce costs and improve performance, the paper tracking sheet shows its limitations: risk of loss or detachment, inability to update in real time, and operational slowdowns.
To address these challenges, Ineo-Sense offers a solution for digitizing tracking sheets based on its Tracer-Note and ACS-Report-Note sensors, ensuring digital continuity, traceability, and responsiveness.
Challenges of the paper tracking sheet
Discontinuity and tracking errors The traditional tracking sheet, often separated from the part, can be lost or damaged. Each search or document replacement causes production stoppages and data entry errors.
Delayed access to information Without connection to the information system, the operator does not have an updated progress status: they cannot know if the previous operation is completed or if changes have been made.
Costs and environmental impact Printing, distributing, and archiving paper sheets generate recurring costs and a significant volume of waste, which conflicts with CSR objectives.
Ineo‑Sense's answer : Tracer‑Note® and REP‑Report‑NOTE®
To overcome these constraints, Ineo-Sense combines two IoT sensors dedicated to digitizing tracking sheets :
