Construction as an industry depends more and more on accuracy and tool reporting will help the industry move in that direction. Coulis says that over time they will introduce a variety of sensors in other tool lines to greatly expand reporting functions. This information can automatically be downloaded to the ONE-KEY cloud site to generate reports that will confirm the success and accuracy of an installation, information that can be passed on to inspectors and owners representatives. Sensors in the tool automatically record the time of crimping and the pressure. Specifications often require specific crimping pressures when a fitting is crimped to a conduit or tubing. This feature of ONE-KEY was launched with the introduction of a Utility Crimping tool used primarily by the electrical trades. You can also easily remove a tool from one project and post it to another-you always know where your tools are. During the planning phase of a contract you can quickly assemble an inventory of tools for a project. You can even log in things like brooms and other equipment used on jobsites.Īn important function of inventory management for contractors who perform work at multiple construction sites is the ability to assign tools to a jobsite. ONE-KEY also accepts tool information from other manufacturers but in that case you have to input all the information. If you are entering a Milwaukee tool all you have to do is type its model number into the data base and the rest of the information populates the form automatically (minus repair history and location).
It records all the relevant information about a tool specs, when it was purchased, notes on any repair work, and location.
It offers a central place for users to keep track of their tools company wide. This was the first component on the site to launch. The first benefits will include inventory management, tool reporting and tool control but this is only the beginning-the future doesn’t have limits. It’s available now for anyone to use and can be accessed through both the web and a mobile app. Christian Coulis, vice president of Product Management says ONE-KEY will never stop evolving. Over the past couple year’s developers at Milwaukee have been working on a free-to-everyone cloud based program to serve contractor needs. Here’s what they are doing to help you work more effectively. Given the fast rise in interest to the IoT, other manufacturers will soon follow Milwaukee’s lead.

to link tools to the Internet, also building Bluetooth connectivity into some of their product line. The Milwaukee Tool company, headquartered in Brookfield, Wisconsin is the first tool manufacturer in the U.S. Over the next few years it’s estimated that billions of devices and electrical equipment will be remotely controlled via the internet. It also allows manufacturers to collect information about how their products are used so they can improve them. The IoT is about controlling our devices remotely through the use of the internet. Many factors are moving us in the direction of the IoT inexpensive internet rates, coverage everywhere, the almost universal availability of smart phones and tablets, and the increased use of sensors and electronic components in almost everything we use. It’s in all of our futures and will influence how we both live and work. In the ever-changing world of electronics and the Internet comes a new technology movement-the “Internet of Things” (IoT).
