Case Study: Schösswender streamlines furniture production with Datalogic Falcon and Barcotec easyMITS

The Falcon™ streamlines Schösswender’s furniture production processes

Schösswender, an Austrian furniture manufacturer, faced challenges with its manual, paper-based inventory system after expanding its production. The process was prone to errors, created high administrative costs, and made it difficult to track parts. The company needed an easy-to-use electronic barcode solution to manage production without relying on external suppliers. They chose a system from vendor Datalogic, utilizing the Falcon mobile computer and partner Barcotec's easyMITS software.

Datalogic's solution implemented 2D Data Matrix codes for part marking and the easyMITS software, which was fully operational within weeks. The new system eliminated manual controls, significantly reduced error rates, and improved the working environment. The vendor's technology was so user-friendly that employee training was minimized. As a measurable result, Schösswender saved up to one day per week on certain tasks, allowing staff to focus on other activities. The success has led to plans for expanding the Datalogic system to merchandise and stocking areas.
