Improving Factory Productivity with Sakutto Scan Smartphone System
In the world of manufacturing, efficiency is key. The Sakutto Scan smartphone application aims to revolutionize how work achievements are collected in factories. With a total of 350 units sold thus far, this innovative system leverages the built-in camera of smartphones to scan barcodes on work instructions, thus enabling seamless logging of task performance. The application will be showcased during the Manufacturing World Tokyo event, taking place from July 9 to July 11, 2025, at Makuhari Messe, booth number 60-20.
Identifying Pain Points in Traditional Systems
Manufacturers often face various challenges with conventional methods of reporting work achievements. Workers typically struggle with:
On the management side, data entry becomes another burden:
Sakutto Scan: The Solution
Designed specifically for Android devices, Sakutto Scan streamlines the work achievement recording process while integrating perfectly with Inspirove's Production Management System, “Prevision” or the “Sakutto process” series. Here’s how it can revolutionize your factory operations:
1. Ease and Accessibility: Workers can access the server wirelessly via smartphones, leaving cumbersome cables behind and eliminating the need for special setups. This feature allows for accurate and timely input of data, minimizing the chances of forgetting to log performance statistics.
2. Real-Time Data Capture: The application permits users to pull up relevant information directly on their smartphone screens. Workers can easily input their completed task times and counts, with the ability to rectify any mistakes immediately, fostering greater accuracy in data collection. The collected data is compiled automatically, providing real-time visibility of task progress and highlighting any delays.
3. Cost-Effective Implementation: The initial software cost is just 200,000 yen (excluding tax) for the first license and only 20,000 yen for additional units. This competitive pricing allows for wider adoption without straining departmental budgets. Each user completing their input effectively reduces wasted time and enhances overall efficiency.
Enhanced Information Sharing Capabilities
Sakutto Scan’s optional Media Feature allows for the integration of images and videos directly linked to product numbers, promoting effective sharing and recall of quality issues. When errors, such as processing defects arise, operators benefit from quick access to previously documented issues, enabling them to avoid repeating mistakes.
Elevating Factory Transparency
By implementing Sakutto Scan, both tedious daily reports from workers and time-consuming managerial summaries can become relics of the past. This system empowers superior real-time tracking of task progress, fostering transparency and ultimately leading to operational enhancements.

Identifying Pain Points in Traditional Systems
Manufacturers often face various challenges with conventional methods of reporting work achievements. Workers typically struggle with:
- - Cumbersome Paperwork: Manually filling out daily reports with serial numbers, product numbers, item names, quantities, and timestamps can be time-consuming.
- - Unwieldy Handheld Terminals: Utilizing heavy handheld terminals can be cumbersome for workers, especially when trying to input data efficiently.
- - Complicated Data Transfer: Transferring data from these terminals can turn into a tedious task when relying on designated times.
- - Shared Device Limitations: When devices are shared among multiple workers, it leads to a significant loss of productivity as workers must leave their stations to input data.
- - Fragmented Information Input: Many terminals require multiple screen switches, complicating the data entry process.
On the management side, data entry becomes another burden:
- - High Administrative Labor: Managers spend excessive time inputting data from handwritten reports into digital formats, leading to inefficiencies.
- - Error Handling is Tedious: When workers misrecord data in handheld terminals, it often falls to managers to correct these errors, complicating the process further.
- - Cost Inefficiencies: Ideally, each worker would have a terminal, but high costs make this impractical. As these devices age, the lack of available maintenance parts often leads to costly replacements for entire fleets of devices.
