Fast, reliable pack creation
Every timber pack starts with a barcode scan. Timberflow uses ALPS ruggedised PDA devices purpose-built for outdoor industrial use - drop-resistant, waterproof, and readable in direct sunlight.
Operators scan a barcode label, then enter the pack details: species, grade, treatment, dressing, dried status, and dimensions. The entire process takes under 10 seconds once your team is familiar with the flow.
Lookup and identification
Already scanned? Point the scanner at any barcode in the yard to instantly pull up the full pack record - what’s in it, when it was created, where it’s been moved, and whether it’s been sold or dispatched.
Offline-first scanning
Scans are stored locally on the PDA and synced to the server when connectivity is available. Your team never has to wait for a network connection to keep working. Learn more about how offline-first scanning works under the hood.
Pack photos
Photograph packs directly from the PDA. Photos are uploaded to cloud storage and linked to the pack record, so anyone viewing a pack on the inventory dashboard can see exactly what it looks like. Useful for quality documentation, customer queries, disputes, or simply having a visual record of what was in the yard.
