Inovaxe Rolls Out New InoBar and MODI Integration Storage Solutions at APEX
January 6, 2020 | InovaxeEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Inovaxe, a world leader and provider of innovative material handling and inventory control systems, will exhibit at the 2020 IPC APEX EXPO, scheduled to take place Feb. 4-6, 2020 at the San Diego Convention Center in California. The company will showcase its new InoBar and MODI integration in Booth #1007.
Inovaxe’s newly designed InoBar can turn nearly any storage shelves or racks into intelligent storage pick to light locations, capable of lighting up the locations of desired material. Operators can inform the system when materials are added and removed. InoBar attaches to existing storage to provide LEDs and add and remove switches to your storage locations.
InoBar can be used to manage stencils, boxes, PCB stacks, assembly bench bins, or virtually any other package. It comes in various lengths and can have as many as 48 locations on one string with varied pitches. Get multiple InoBars and daisy chain them together to make a large intelligent storage network. InoBar is compatible with Inovaxe’s InoAuto locator software.
InoAuto Smart storage racks now communicate directly to the MODI table. This integration allows customers to streamline incoming inspection and UID label generation. The MODI table can print a barcode label, which once applied to a reel, can be placed directly into the InoAuto Smart cart without any scan to add required. This connectivity provides immense benefits to Inovaxe customers by reducing the labor required for receiving, labeling, storing and identifying materials. Additionally, it provides traceability for all materials processed within the MODI and Inovaxe systems.

IPC Hall of Fame Spotlight Series: Highlighting Patty Goldman
11/22/2024 | Dan Feinberg, I-Connect007In my first article of this special series, I wrote a synopsis of the IPC Raymond E. Pritchard Hall of Fame (HOF) Award, along with a commentary on its first few members, particularly Pritchard. Over the years, IPC members who have contributed significantly to IPC and our industry have been awarded this high honor and recognition. Though many early HOF members have passed away and are unknown to today’s IPC membership, their contributions still resonate. Over the coming months, I look forward to researching and reporting on IPC Hall of Fame members and their contributions. This month, I highlight Patty Goldman.

Enjoy the Journey: PCB Design Instructor Kris Moyer on His Sustainable Lifestyle
11/19/2024 | Michelle Te, IPC CommunityWhen I contacted IPC design instructor Kris Moyer to discuss his sustainable lifestyle, he responded to my text with a call. "I'm calling you from about 8,000 feet, sitting at the foot of Mammoth Lakes," he told me. “My friends and I are about to get in the pool for the afternoon." Kris can do this because he actually lives full-time in his travel-trailer at this campground. He's now a permanent camper, taking him anywhere the winds blow—and where there's strong internet service—so he can teach his PCB design classes, offer expert interviews, and live off the land.
