Currently, “digital transformation” and “AI+” have become central to industrial policy. Against this backdrop, electronic labels, as intelligent display tools for the digital transformation of industrial manufacturing, are leveraging innovative technologies to help enterprises upgrade toward intelligent operations.
Amid the accelerating push for digital transformation in the manufacturing sector, electronic labels are reshaping warehouse management logic through various applications, empowering enterprises to achieve intelligent upgrades.
Accurate Inbound/Outbound Operations
Electronic labels can integrate with shelf indicator lights. LED light flashes guide staff to the correct operation zones, while e-ink displays provide real-time updates on inventory information. After completing inbound or outbound tasks, workers can use PDAs to scan barcodes or press label buttons to instantly sync data with the backend system, minimizing manual entry errors and improving efficiency.
Dynamic Transfer Tracking
When goods are moved from Warehouse A to Warehouse B, indicator lights and labels at both locations flash simultaneously, helping staff quickly locate the items. Upon arrival at the new location, warehouse staff can promptly update the label information, avoiding the delays and disconnects commonly caused by traditional paper labeling.
Electronic labels come in various sizes and can be flexibly applied in settings such as material Kanban boards, shelf location signs, and production line process monitoring. For example:
Shelf Location Signage: Clearly displays storage location data and updates inventory status in real time, supporting dynamic space planning and improving picking efficiency.
Production Line Kanban: Real-time display of production progress and process parameters, with support for dynamic workflow adjustments.
Light-Guided Item Picking: One-click light activation quickly guides workers to the correct item location, significantly reducing search time.
Low Power Consumption and High Stability
Electronic labels use e-ink displays and Bluetooth 5.0 communication. They retain information display even without power and feature IP65/IP67 protection, making them suitable for complex industrial environments.
Data Connectivity and Multi-Terminal Control
Labels can be managed remotely via PC or mobile devices, with customizable button functions to meet the growing demands of intelligent and efficient warehouse operations.
The value of electronic labels lies not only in technological innovation, but also in accelerating the shift toward a data-driven business model:
Cost Reduction and Efficiency Gains
By reducing paper label usage and improving operational efficiency, electronic labels help cut management costs, lower human error rates, and guide enterprises toward smarter management practices.
Green and Low-Carbon Operations
Through digital means, electronic labels help reduce resource waste, supporting corporate sustainability goals and contributing to a greener industrial ecosystem.
Enhanced Competitiveness
Real-time data insights improve supply chain performance and enable quicker responses to market demands—helping build a new benchmark for traditional industries.
In short, electronic labels serve as intelligent tools that interconnect "people, goods, and spaces" in industrial environments. Their adaptability and digital value continue to emerge as key enablers of transformation. Embracing change begins with even the smallest digital practice. Leveraging electronic labels as a pivot, ZKONG empowers enterprises to transition into the Industry 4.0 era with intelligent, lightweight solutions.
