SMD storage solution software​

ISM server software workflow

Every component in the right place - at the right time

No more searching for reels, and no more line stops because a component was in the wrong rack. ISM Server is the SMD storage solution software that connects your Essegi storage towers to the rest of your factory: ERP, MES, WMS and your pick & place machines. Everyone works from the same live inventory. 

Operators get the right material when the line needs it. Planners can trust the stock figures. Quality gets full traceability on every reel, including MSL and expiry data, ready for the next customer audit. 

All your SMD materials sit in one central overview, whether they’re in storage, on a shelf, in the buffer or on the production line.

Less searching. Fewer stops. Full control of every component.

What SMD storage solution software does for your production


ISM Server is the brain behind all Essegi Storage Solutions products. It connects towers, shelves, buffers and robots to your company systems, so your material flow runs on live data instead of spreadsheets and guesswork.

What you get, module by module:

  • MSL management - moisture-sensitive parts stay safe to place
    The software controls relative humidity inside the Essegi towers. It monitors, traces and reports values for each individual component, so documenting MSL handling is straightforward.

  • Pick & place connection - the line asks, the storage answers
    Two-way communication with your pick & place machines creates parts, updates quantities and handles requests for replacement material directly from the line.

  • Dynamic warehouse management - control beyond the towers
    Track materials on shelves or any labelled position with unique codes. You can also set up dedicated areas for baking, dry storage or refrigeration.

  • Buffer/supermarket management - the next job is already waiting
    Material for scheduled production is kept ready in the buffer area, so storage space is used efficiently. Full status reporting and operator tools make the buffer easy to manage.

  • Advanced material receiving - goods in, without the typing errors
    Receiving is automated and combined with UID labelling to save time and remove manual mistakes. Pair it with an SMD counter for accurate reel quantities from day one. The ERP interface cuts process steps and keeps a document archive with full traceability.

  • Dashboards - the status at a glance
    Operators see real-time system status and performance in a clear, intuitive interface.

  • Automated material handling - let the robots do the walking
    Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) deliver materials to and from the storage towers and around the factory. You decide where the delivery stations go, for example at receiving, storage areas or production lines.
