Kardex JMIF (Java Machine Interface) is a flexible software solution designed to integrate our automated storage and retrieval systems with external systems.

The Kardex JMIF is a middleware layer that enables seamless communication between our ASRS solutions and other warehouse management systems, ERPs, or WCSs. This allows customers to control the locations, inventory, and workflows within their Kardex Remstar solution from an external system.

With the Kardex JMIF, organizations can automate order consolidation, track inventory levels in real-time, and optimize their supply chain operations. By integrating our ASRS solutions with other systems, customers can reduce manual errors, improve accuracy, and increase efficiency.
