LSI Industries Labeling Process Improvement Case Study

This case study details the implementation of TEKLYNX barcode label design software, CODESOFT, and the label printing automation solution, SENTINEL, by LSI Industries' Lighting Division. The objective was to enhance labeling efficiency and reduce the manual maintenance of static label files. The division faced challenges including managing a large number of independent label files and the need for efficient printing across multiple locations. By integrating the labeling software with their existing JD Edwards ERP system, LSI Industries successfully eliminated 6,000 static label files, reducing ongoing maintenance by 80% and processing time from days to minutes. The new system allowed for improved compliance with industry standards and facilitated the printing of labels in-house, which lowered costs. The implementation resulted in increased printing speed and the ability to support a multi-user environment, ultimately positioning the division for future growth.
