Every employer or business owner is responsible for providing safe working and operational equipment. For this reason, regular inspections, for example in accordance with the German Ordinance on Industrial Safety and Health (BetrSichV), are legally required. The web application Equipment Inspector (AYE-D.NET) offers a straightforward digital solution for maintaining and analysing equipment, as well as managing product data, inspection reports, and documents. The Equipment Inspector app from SYFIT GmbH assists you in inspecting your inspection-relevant work and operational equipment. With a user account, which you receive upon purchasing an Equipment Inspector (AYE-D.NET) licence, you can log in to the app at any time. Each piece of equipment is assigned a unique identification number stored on your RFID or NFC transponders, barcodes, QR codes, etc. This allows you to access your inspection-relevant data saved in Equipment Inspector (AYE-D.NET) and obtain all important product information. A direct quick inspection of your equipment is another highlight. You can assign a status to your equipment, which is then transmitted to the Equipment Inspector (AYE-D.NET) web application. The following inspection statuses are available: β’ Ok β’ Repaired (with image and note function) β’ Decommissioned (with image and note function) Inspection and documentation made easy!
