BinMaster Level Controls has teamed up with Sprint on its BinView machine-to-machine (M2M) cloud-computing inventory management solution that allows businesses to monitor inventory in their bins, tanks and silos over the Internet. This Web-based inventory management system provides bin level information on demand, combining BinMaster SmartBob level sensors and the Sprint wireless networks to make the data easily available via the Internet.

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.

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.
