About The Customer
Beatdisc Records is an independent record store located in Western Sydney, Australia. It has been serving the local community for over 20 years, offering a unique blend of retail and live music experiences. On weekends, the store transforms into a live music venue, providing a platform for local artists and labels to showcase their talent. This dual functionality requires a versatile and efficient scanning solution to manage both retail stock and QR code ticketing for events. Beatdisc Records is known for its innovative approach to customer service and its commitment to supporting local music talent.
The Challenge
Beatdisc Records, the only independent record store in Western Sydney for the past 20 years, needed to innovate to cater to their customers better. Over the weekends, the store transforms into a live music venue, requiring a versatile scanning technology for retail stock and QR code ticketing. The store needed a smart, robust, and scalable scanning solution to streamline everyday work, save time, and create an ultimate in-store experience.
The Solution
The Honeywell Orbit 7190G scanner was chosen as the perfect solution for Beatdisc Records. This innovative and affordable scanner is ergonomic and easy to install, providing superior pass-through scanning of both linear and digital barcodes. The combination of omnidirectional laser scanning and integrated area imaging allows for highly efficient checkouts, eliminating the need for an additional scanner. The Orbit 7190G's dual-mode design enables seamless scanning of merchandise barcodes and digital barcodes from customer smartphones, making it ideal for Beatdisc's unique retail and live music venue setup. The compact, plug-and-play device is easy to integrate into existing checkout systems, saving space and enhancing the overall customer experience.

Improving Production Line Efficiency with Ethernet Micro RTU Controller
Moxa was asked to provide a connectivity solution for one of the world's leading cosmetics companies. This multinational corporation, with retail presence in 130 countries, 23 global braches, and over 66,000 employees, sought to improve the efficiency of their production process by migrating from manual monitoring to an automatic productivity monitoring system. The production line was being monitored by ABB Real-TPI, a factory information system that offers data collection and analysis to improve plant efficiency. Due to software limitations, the customer needed an OPC server and a corresponding I/O solution to collect data from additional sensor devices for the Real-TPI system. The goal is to enable the factory information system to more thoroughly collect data from every corner of the production line. This will improve its ability to measure Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and translate into increased production efficiencies. System Requirements • Instant status updates while still consuming minimal bandwidth to relieve strain on limited factory networks • Interoperable with ABB Real-TPI • Small form factor appropriate for deployment where space is scarce • Remote software management and configuration to simplify operations

How Sirqul’s IoT Platform is Crafting Carrefour’s New In-Store Experiences
Carrefour Taiwan’s goal is to be completely digital by end of 2018. Out-dated manual methods for analysis and assumptions limited Carrefour’s ability to change the customer experience and were void of real-time decision-making capabilities. Rather than relying solely on sales data, assumptions, and disparate systems, Carrefour Taiwan’s CEO led an initiative to find a connected IoT solution that could give the team the ability to make real-time changes and more informed decisions. Prior to implementing, Carrefour struggled to address their conversion rates and did not have the proper insights into the customer decision-making process nor how to make an immediate impact without losing customer confidence.

Digital Retail Security Solutions
Sennco wanted to help its retail customers increase sales and profits by developing an innovative alarm system as opposed to conventional connected alarms that are permanently tethered to display products. These traditional security systems were cumbersome and intrusive to the customer shopping experience. Additionally, they provided no useful data or analytics.

Ensures Cold Milk in Your Supermarket
As of 2014, AK-Centralen has over 1,500 Danish supermarkets equipped, and utilizes 16 operators, and is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. AK-Centralen needed the ability to monitor the cooling alarms from around the country, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Each and every time the door to a milk cooler or a freezer does not close properly, an alarm goes off on a computer screen in a control building in southwestern Odense. This type of alarm will go off approximately 140,000 times per year, equating to roughly 400 alarms in a 24-hour period. Should an alarm go off, then there is only a limited amount of time to act before dairy products or frozen pizza must be disposed of, and this type of waste can quickly start to cost a supermarket a great deal of money.
Case Study
Supermarket Energy Savings
The client had previously deployed a one-meter-per-store monitoring program. Given the manner in which energy consumption changes with external temperature, hour of the day, day of week and month of year, a single meter solution lacked the ability to detect the difference between a true problem and a changing store environment. Most importantly, a single meter solution could never identify root cause of energy consumption changes. This approach never reduced the number of truck-rolls or man-hours required to find and resolve issues.
