Dress to Impress: the WD2 Wearable Scanner in Warehousing

The party must go on!

In retail and e-commerce, digitization of processes for efficient workflow and operations starts for many at the warehouse. Gift and party supplies wholesaler Hisab/Joker AB found their most efficient solution in Newland EMEA’s WD2 Wearable Scanner (the Integrated Trigger Strap has replaced the Electronic Hand Strap*).

Located in Varberg, Sweden, this well-established wholesaler of fun saw a need to digitize their warehouse processes. However, there were some key considerations to keep in mind before switching systems and processes.

How to digitize without compromising

Hisab/Joker AB’s main concern was slowing down the already established operations and workflows, where warehouse employees had to process orders as quickly as possible. The wrong type of scanner could considerably hinder their speed, leading to operations and logistics bottlenecks. Another concern was scanner performance. Barcodes for their items lie close together, which could create problems depending on the type of scanner solution. Inaccurate scanning leads not only to mistakes and inefficient inventory management but also to time wasted and resources lost.

Nwear by Newland for more efficient warehouse operations

That’s where Nwear, the wearable scanner line by Newland, steps in. Recommended by our Nordics team, the WD2 Wearable Scanner with strap was the perfect solution that combines speed with efficiency, enabling Hisab/Joker AB to digitize and improve their warehouse processes. The included electronic hand strap is designed for comfort and allows for uninterrupted work.

The second concern was taken care of with Acuscan, Newland’s top-of-line configuration tool for setting up the scanner in the way that best suits the requirements of the barcodes sitting closely together. The company now has real-time insights for inventory management, order-picking, logistics and other business operations.

In conclusion, the WD2 Wearable Scanner increased efficiency in the warehouse and digitized their processes without compromising on speed or accuracy. Because orders come in fast, and the party must go on!
