Finding the right tool for the job can take time. By increasing tool visibility, we decrease the time it takes for your technicians to find the tool they need. We make it easier for missing tools to be noticed and returned. Our selection of high-visibility tool handles, custom color foam inserts, toolbox organizers, and pegboards don’t just raise the visibility of your tools, they raise the productivity of your team.
The Snap-on® Visual Control Cabinet (VCC) gives you a full view of your tools for instant accountability and inventory management. Available in 2 sizes, these cabinets can hold an extensive number of tools securely with keyed or keyless entry. Customization is available through the optional interior tool control functions such as foam inserts or peg boards. With an optional rolling cart or rolling cab, you can position the visual control cabinet close to the work so your technicians always have the right tools at the ready.
When things are easy to see, problems are easier to notice. Our Visual Control Cabinets are equipped with Makrolon AR Polycarbonate windows (the same material used in jet fighter cockpits) for “at-a-glance” tool management that doesn’t compromise security. It also keeps the tool chest high, reducing the need to bend and stretch for tools, creating ergonomic working environment.
Plus, we offer tools in a variety of colors, and have a wide range of high-contrast foam to accommodate easier visual inspection. And if your tools need to stand out, our high-visibility handle colors make work in dark spaces visually easier.
Oil & Gas – On offshore platforms, each level is given a unique color of Teflon coated tools to help differentiate the tools of one level from the tools of another, ensuring the right tools are used for the job and maximizing productivity.
Aviation – Foreign Object Debris costs the aerospace industry millions of dollars a year in damage to equipment and personnel. Using a Visual Control Cabinet or Storage Cage makes it easy to eliminate FOD. After maintenance, technicians can ensure that every tool is accounted for with a simple visual inspection.
