Abstract: A packaging assembly having an open design for displaying a product is provided. The packaging assembly is configured for storage and display in high density arrays of packaging assemblies, such as storage in pallets, and is configured to display visual information to a user from any perspective, even when the packaging assembly is packed in high density arrays of packaging assemblies. The packaging assembly includes an inner portion designed to contain a product and a housing designed to house the inner portion, wherein the inner portion includes a substantially transparent cover that facilitates display of the product. The packaging assembly includes an outer portion having a three dimensional window box frame, wherein portions of the window box frame are configured to couple to flanges provided on the inner portion.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a packaging assembly for containing and displaying a product. The packaging assembly includes an inner member that has a front face for displaying a product and one or several extension portions that extend from a back portion of the inner member toward the front. The assembly additionally includes an outer member that is configured to receive the inner member and has a window portion to expose the front face of the inner member. The outer member has one or several retention portions that extend inward from a front edge and engage the extension portions of the inner member in order to prevent removal of the inner member from the outer member through the window portion.

Abstract: An elapsed time clock is incorporated into a part call tag for requesting replenishment of components used by workstations of a manufacturing facility. One or more transmission readers spatially distributed around the manufacturing facility detect a part call signal transmitted from the part call tag. A reader output processing subsystem processes part call signals detected by at least one of the tag transmission readers to recover information contained in the part call signal. A management processor associates the recovered information with a respective workstation, and what component is to be replenished. The elapsed time clock is reset when the part call tag is operated to transmit a part call signal, and thereby serves as a call tag ‘stop watch’—informing workstation personnel of the length of time that has elapsed since the last part call transmission from that tag.

Abstract: A call tag-based material replenishment system employs a tagged object radio location infrastructure of the type described in the U.S. Pat. No. 5,920,287. For each different part used by a lineside workstation an associated ‘call’ tag is placed at or near that workstation. To initiate replenishment of a part, a ‘call’ push-button on a call tag is operated. In response to the operation of the call button, an RF signal burst containing tag identity and status data is transmitted from the call tag. This information is recovered by a spatially distributed reader and processor subsystem for application to an asset management database. The database associates the call tag's identification data with a particular part, to enable a resource management operator to specify what component is to be accessed from storage and delivered to the requesting call tag's workstation.
