FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about the NEO LIGHT Plus sensor-enabled smart reel rack. For additional inquiries, please contact our technical consultants.

What is the key difference between Plus and PTL?
PTL uses Pick-to-Light guidance where operators manually scan barcodes to confirm inventory changes. Plus adds position sensors on top of PTL light guidance, automatically detecting reel placement and removal without any manual scanning. Both models share the same 1,400-reel capacity, software platform, and ERP/MES integration capabilities. Plus additionally meets the IPC-1782 component traceability standard, making it ideal for high-compliance environments.
How do the position sensors work?
NEO LIGHT Plus has position sensors installed at every slot. When a reel is placed or removed, the sensor automatically detects the change and instantly updates the system inventory — no operator scanning required. The system automatically logs each transaction with timestamp, operator ID, reel UID, and other traceability data to meet IPC-1782 requirements.
Can we upgrade from PTL to Plus?
Yes. Position sensor modules can be retrofitted to existing PTL shelving without replacing the entire rack structure. After the upgrade, you gain automatic sensor confirmation and IPC-1782 traceability compliance. Contact our technical team to develop a specific upgrade plan for your PTL model. Contact Technical Support →
What compliance scenarios is Plus suited for?
NEO LIGHT Plus meets the IPC-1782 component traceability standard and is particularly suited for: automotive electronics (IATF 16949 quality system requiring full material traceability), medical devices (FDA/GMP documentation requirements), aerospace (AS9100 quality management traceability), and any production environment requiring complete audit trails for material transactions.
Can it integrate with our ERP/MES system?
Absolutely. The SMF smart material control platform powering NEO LIGHT Plus offers RESTful API, SQL direct connection, and other standard integration methods. It has been validated with SAP, Oracle, and other mainstream ERP/MES systems. Plus also supports an optional touchscreen interface for operators to view inventory status, work order information, and transaction logs directly. SMF provides complete API documentation and a test sandbox environment, with full technical support throughout the integration process.
