Warehouse Optimization APIs
These APIs allow metal companies to quickly integrate custom applications, third-party applications, and plant equipment with the INVEX platform.
In the warehouse, INVEX APIs allow for the following warehouse optimizations: integration with crane automation and location management tools, production scheduling optimization systems, measurement capture and surface inspection information from plant equipment, and integration with PLCs.
