INNOVATION SPOTLIGHT

Innovation advantage

Many Snap-on innovations originate from observing end users in the workplace, and then applying the talent and experience of thousandsof specialized engineers to invent solutions. We create breakthrough designs and reinvent the manufacturing process that can deliver tools and solutions for increased productivity and safety. Our deep history in aerospace and aviation enables us to provide a wide variety of tools and solutions to keep planes in the air.

Engineering advantage

Because technicians place great value on quality, performance, reliability and durability, Snap-on builds those qualities into every hand tool we make. For tools that stay in service longer, generate great productivity and make income soar, reach for Snap-on hand tools. The choice of professional mechanics, where reliability, repeatability and ergonomics are essential for critical work.

Power advantage

Snap-on tools deliver not only power, but performance. The comfort, reliability and durability of Snap-on power tools sets us apart from the rest, and sets you up for successfully completed jobs. Every time. Looking for a powerful ally in the hangar? You’ve come to the right place.

LEVEL 5

FEATURES & BENEFITS

Introducing a tool storage and control system engineered to automatically track individual tools by user without bar codes, scanners, RFID tags or other add-ons.

ORGANISATION

The better organized you are, the easier it is to do the job properly. We start with a complete tool audit of a Snap-on Solutioneer. Together we determine what level of tool control you need. We design a special tool set to meet your specific requirements.

VISIBILITY

Finding the right tool for the job can take even more time if it is difficult to spot. With our solutions for better visibility we shorten the search for the right tool and thus the time in which the tool is not in use. Easily visible tool handles, coloured foam inserts, boards and toolbox organizers increase the visibility of the tools and the productivity of your team.

ACCESS CONTROL

Do not use keys that can be lost or shared with others. Our tool storage facilities are equipped with Keyless Access Control. This gives your team access to the tools they need. You can configure the tool control to work with magnetic cards, barcodes, PINs and proximity cards. With our proprietary software, you can control access from a system or network. Access control maintains productivity and keeps unauthorized users away.

ASSET MANAGEMENT

How would it be if you could track your valuable tools from one place? With the Level 5 Tool Control System, you can do it. It provides complete reports on everything you want to keep an eye on. You will even be informed when a tool needs to be refilled or ordered. Our solutions preserve your valuable tools. You always have an overview.

AUTOMATION

Minimizing human error maximizes productivity and minimizes the risk to FOD and FME. Automated Tool Control automatically handles tool control and tracking. Whether using RFID tags to track large devices or digitally scan each drawer, our systems detect which tools have been removed or added. Each tool is tracked by part number and user. You keep an eye on productivity without interrupting work.
