With Smart INH (Ideal Needle Handling), Groz-Beckert has taken an important step towards digitalization. The INH process is based on the needle output trolley. It prevents unnecessary paths and wait times during needle changes in the factories. Using the needle return box also prevents errors. The process is simplified further with the needle storage sheet, which creates an all-round more efficient process for the needle change, whether following a needle breakage or during the normal replacement process.
In the smart version, the trolley is expanded to include a tablet, which carries out the digitalization of the documentation.
With INH quality management, Groz-Beckert has been offering a way of improving the complex handling of sewing machine needles in the production process since 2016. In addition to the basic version, where the documentation of the needle breakages takes place physically, the so-called Smart INH was created for digital documentation of needle breakages and all needle changes. Different evaluations can also be carried out and data managed using Smart INH.
The sewing and joining service from Groz-Beckert, which can now be accessed from several locations around the world, provides scores of pointers and support for optimal sewing operation and the best end product possible.
