Electrone Americas-Top Quality Products and Support

A Customer was considering Electrone for a subsequent phase of an existing project.

In the event a competitor was chosen. Electrone expected that volume would decline over a period of time.

Unexpected after few months volume increased. It increased further and for longer and these volumes had not been predicted by the customer. Eventually Electrone’s supply of long lead parts grew short.

A visit was arranged to review the situation with the customer. Only then was it disclosed that while they had chosen to go with another supplier, at a supposedly better price, the other supplier had not been able to supply when production needed parts.

Electrone’s ability to increase supply, without notice, had permitted production to continue without a crisis. In response to the shortage in the Electrone parts supply chain a new variant was developed to work around the problem and maintain continuity for production.

Electrone will be shipping another 800 more of these units in the next 60 days, even now, years later. Learn more about Electrone Americas - http://www.keyboardspecials.com/

Customer Queuing and Management System

Customer flow systems can take advantage of the Electrone 735 keypad range to improve the customer service experience and maximize customer trough output. Queuing systems integrate the web-enabled 735 keypads to allow customers and customer service personal to input data, track wait and productivity times, and improve service. The Electrone 735 TCP or PoE can communicate with web-based systems in real time offering an improved way that devices integrate into the whole system. By using an ID number issued from the ticket dispenser or touch screen kiosk, the customer now has the luxury to move around the room and not have to stand in a line. By tracking the amount of tickets issued, management and staff also benefit by knowing the volume of people waiting to be served. This can be used to calculate the estimated waiting times. Visual displays such as TV monitors, plasma screens or LED signs can be used to display the called customer ID and corresponding workstation number. The Electrone 735 keypad then closes the circle by allowing data input interaction with the web-based system. Customer service personnel can send tickets with unique numbers completed or call new numbers, manage displayed messages on the screen and much more using the keypad.

Competitive Scoring Systems with Electrone Americas

Competitive Scoring Systems

Within the competition environment companies and organizations realized the need for quicker and more efficient scoring processes and systems. Electrone's 735 keypads are currently in use to score competitive sheep shearing in the United Kingdom (see picture below). In addition, Electrone were able to replace British Gymnastics traditional scoring system with the 735 keypads, which features a 2x16 LCD character display and a 17-key membrane, specifically designed to meet the RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substance) environmental standard. Ben Willcox, IT Manager with British Gymnastics, explains, "Each piece of gymnastics apparatus has a set of judges to individually mark a gymnast's performance. Prior to the using the keypads, the judges used a single laptop to input their individual scores. This was a problem as there are six to seven judges per piece of apparatus with only one laptop. It was very limiting and time consuming for judges to input scores into the system."
