Core Technologies & Hardware Infrastructure
The foundation of Lyngsoe Systems' offerings relies on advanced asset capture technology coupled with automated sorting mechanisms. The physical setups are engineered to operate in high-volume, continuous industrial and public environments.
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and IoT Data Capture
Lyngsoe is an industry expert in deploying passive and active RFID ecosystems. Unlike traditional barcode systems, their RFID infrastructure allows for non-line-of-sight reading, scanning entire containers or bulk quantities of tagged inventory instantly. These hardware assets link directly into internal data capture devices, which feed physical processing states to backend corporate enterprise systems in real time.
Automated Material Handling (AMH) Hardware
For sorting operations, Lyngsoe builds modular, physical automated sorting machinery. This hardware uses electronic conveyors, directional gates, and sensor arrays to handle materials gently while routing them at maximum velocity. The modular architecture allows components to be customized to fit specific warehouse layouts, central sorting facilities, or restrictive library branch spaces.
Solutions & Product Offerings by Division
1. Lyngsoe Systems Library Solutions
This division designs hardware and software to automate material returns, inventory tracking, and distribution management for modern libraries. Its systems alleviate repetitive manual sorting tasks so library staff can dedicate more time to community programs.
Automated Material Handling (AMH) Products
- Lyngsoe Sort Mate™ 2000 & Conveyors: A fully modular, high-volume physical sorting machine. Returned books pass through scanning gates and are automatically moved down conveyor belts to distinct destinations (bins or shelves) without human intervention.
- Lyngsoe Library Mate™ Series (1200, 1300, 2100, 5000): Patron-facing return kiosks. The Library Mate™ 2100 is an exterior, ruggedized, weatherproof wall-mounted kiosk that enables patrons to securely return books 24/7.
- Ergonomic Processing Staff Tools: Includes the Lyngsoe Ergo Staff™ 1200 and Ergo Feeder™ 2000, alongside automated storage units like the Lyngsoe Ergo Bin™ and Ergo Cart™, designed to reduce physical strain on staff by keeping heavy volumes at waist height.
Self-Service Equipment (SSE)
- Lyngsoe LibDeco™ & Classic™ Kiosks: Elegant self-checkout and renewal stations running proprietary LibRid software. It gives patrons full control over their accounts with clear on-screen animations.
- Intelligent Furniture & Storage: Includes the Lyngsoe Intelligent Return Shelf™, Intelligent Hold™, and Lyngsoe LibCabinet™. These units automatically check items back into the library system database the moment a patron places an item on the physical shelf, providing immediate inventory updates.
- Smart Lockers & Tablet Lending: Specialized secure lockers for off-site or after-hours material pickups, as well as integrated Hublet tablet deployment systems.
Specialized Library Software
- Intelligent Material Management System™ (IMMS™): A comprehensive logistics and centralized inventory management platform. IMMS™ tracks items dynamically across multiple municipal branches, providing full collection transparency, optimizing floating collections, and generating data-driven shelf display insights without requiring paper slips.
- Lyngsoe Central Management (LCM)™: The operational brain of the system, providing IT and management staff with a unified dashboard to monitor, troubleshoot, and configure all interconnected hardware and software assets from one single point.
2. Lyngsoe Systems Logistics Solutions
This division develops high-performance tracking and validation automation platforms for industrial networks, transport hubs, and supply chains.
Logistics & Supply Chain Optimization
- Lyngsoe LIVE Logistics™ Platform: The central software engine that manages complex tracking tasks. It processes massive streams of RFID and IoT data to generate predictive logistics analytics, real-time location metrics, and status warnings.
- Returnable Transport Items (RTI) Tracking: A solution engineered to track high-value, reusable assets such as pallets, crates, roll cages, and industrial containers. It automates inventory control, deposit releases, invoicing, and liability shifts across multiple third-party suppliers.
- Automated Validation Station™ (AVS): A GS1-certified hardware and software gate setup that automates asset checking as goods cross loading docks. It stops mis-shipments in real time, validating shipping contents against open orders to eliminate manual processing errors.
- Smart Warehouse & Asset Flow Management: Provides internal asset location monitoring and automated process management to streamline intra-logistical transport and maintain compliance with customer Service Level Agreements (SLAs).
Airports & Airlines
- RFID Baggage Tracking Systems: Solutions designed to help airlines and airports maximize capacity and comply with IATA Resolution 753 (which mandates bag tracking at all critical hand-over points).
- Belt Load Readers: Touchless RFID scanning arches installed directly over airport conveyor lines and aircraft loading ramps. They deliver better than 99% read accuracy without requiring line-of-sight laser alignment, minimizing mishandled baggage rates by at least 25% and streaming location tracking metrics straight to passenger smartphone apps.
Postal and Parcels
- Bulk Sorting & Integration Systems: Solutions engineered to track and handle vast numbers of mailbags, shipping totes, and distinct parcels moving through international postal networks, accelerating turnaround times and enhancing total distribution traceability.
Healthcare and Industrial Intralogistics
- Hospital Asset Management: Real-time location systems (RTLS) utilized to monitor critical medical gear, surgical trays, beds, and specialized diagnostics tools, ensuring personnel spend less time searching for equipment.
Professional Services & Lifecycle Operations
Lyngsoe Systems maintains a comprehensive service model to protect the integrity of its large-scale automation frameworks.
System Architecture & Custom Engineering
Because every warehouse layout and library branch architecture presents unique spatial challenges, Lyngsoe provides dedicated engineering consultation. Teams design custom-tailored conveyor footprints, conduct comprehensive Radio Frequency site mappings, and build bespoke integration layers to sync their platforms cleanly with existing Integrated Library Systems (ILS) or corporate Warehouse Management Systems (WMS).
Maintenance, Support, and Global Reach
The company supports its international client base through specialized multi-tiered support models, including 24/7 technical assistance options, preventative physical equipment servicing, and remote performance monitoring. In North America, Lyngsoe Systems Inc. expanded its regional service footprint by acquiring the business operations of mk Solutions, positioning itself as the direct provider of support, parts, and localized maintenance services across the continent.
