SmartBob

Product Details

A SmartBob® works like an automated tape measure, dropping a weighted cable to the material surface at timed intervals. Also known as a plumb bob or bin bob, this sensor is highly reliable and has a long service life. A network of SmartBobs can provide inventory control for up to 255 bins of heights up to 150 feet.

Made in Lincoln, Nebraska in our factory, BinMaster offers the strongest and smartest cable-based inventory measurement system on the market today. Network accessories, such as wireless transceivers, consoles for local data access, and web-based and local software designed by our team of engineers ensure your SmartBob system will keep you from climbing bins for decades to come.
