One controlled inventory system

Turn Every Cabinet into a Connected Point of Use.

ShopXpert inventory management software connects physical storage with employee accountability. Every tool receives a designated bin, every movement is tied to an authorized user, and every cabinet can become part of one real-time vending system.

  • Prevent expired gauges from returning to production
  • Record who used each Quality Control tool
  • Return recalibrated tools to their designated bins

Built around your point of use

Connect Kiosks to Cabinets Without Losing Floor Space.

Place a ShopXpert kiosk where employees need tools. After an RFID card identifies the employee, the screen shows authorized inventory, guides the selection, and unlocks the correct cabinet. ShopXpert keeps the digital record while the physical tools stay organized at the point of use.

Upgrade existing storage

XpertLock Turns a Regular LISTA Cabinet into a Smart Cabinet.

Replace the existing key-hole cam-lock mechanism with XpertLock, connect it to the ShopXpert Vending module, and control drawer access using employee RFID cards. XpertLock is a subscription-based Vending add-on billed monthly for each connected lock.

Inventory management questions

Industrial Vending, RFID Access, and Tool Tracking FAQs.

Clear answers for manufacturers evaluating connected cabinets and point-of-use inventory control.

How does ShopXpert control access to tools?

Employees tap an RFID card, select an authorized tool at the kiosk, and ShopXpert unlocks only the correct cabinet or drawer while recording the transaction.

Can ShopXpert tell whether a tool was returned?

Yes. Each tool is associated with a designated bin and its transaction history shows who removed it, when it moved, and whether it was returned.

Can the Vending system manage gauge calibration?

Yes. Calibration due dates can be tracked for Quality Control tools, and expired assets can be restricted until recalibration is complete.

Do we need to replace our LISTA cabinets?

Not necessarily. XpertLock is designed to replace the cam-lock mechanism on compatible existing LISTA cabinets and connect them to ShopXpert Vending.
