The BinView interface is cloud based and works independently of the company network, so it is available virtually anywhere, anytime to any person authorized to access the data. Each user can configure their dashboard to select the locations and bins they need to monitor. A popular BinView feature is to send automated level alerts to a cell phone or via email any time a bin level reaches a predetermined high or low level. For example, a user can set a high level alert in a bin to ensure it is not overfilled. Conversely, a low level message can be sent to a vendor when a bin gets to a low level, alerting the vendor to make a delivery.

BinView is appropriate for any operation that has bins of solid materials that need to be measured and monitored such as grain, animal feed, food ingredients, plastics, cement, aggregates, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, or any other powder or bulk solid flowing material. It is appropriate for any industry that has storage or process bins and needs level data to ensure inventory is adequate. BinView is very scalable and can be used to monitor one up to hundreds of bins at a single or at multiple locations. It allows for vendor managed inventory (VMI) to enable replenishment of critical materials when bin levels reach a predetermined level.
