Process Tracker
Ubisense
Process Tracker was designed in collaboration with our customers to provide
visibility into key challenges being faced by modern manufacturing
organizations. What is the real-time
status of every item in my production line? How much time does each operation on the line require? Why is one shift’s performance consistently
better than another? Where is the
biggest variable in my production schedule?
Overview
By combining our precise location technology
with our real-time software platform, companies can achieve complete visibility
into their manufacturing processes. The
Ubisense Process Tracker solution utilizes ultra-wideband (UWB) technology to provide
optimum location tracking performance in complex industrial environments where
other RFID and wireless technologies fail. The Ubisense Process Tracker locates items to within 6 inches of accuracy
and in 3D.
 
How it works
Ubisense Tags can be placed on any item,
including vehicles, engines, dies, totes and jigs which are then integrated
into the Ubisense Process Tracker software program to analyze both the
real-time status of production and historical data for process mapping and
analysis. Ubisense Sensors communicate with the Ubisense Tags to identify the
exact location of each tagged item and in real-time communicate that
information to the Ubisense Process Tracker. Data generated using the Ubisense Process Tracker can be used to drive
lean manufacturing and six sigma analysis to further improve efficiencies and avoid
errors in the production line.
Each tag has a button which can be used to
signal events such as when parts need to be replenished, or when a tool needs maintenance or a product needs rework. All
data gathered is stored in standard database format and is accessible though a
web interface from anywhere in the plant.
