Ubisense's Location Driven Manufacturing Solutions improve productivity by providing real-time visibility for a smarter production flow. By tracking the location of critical assets, Ubisense Manufacturing Solutions provide unequalled information about current and past production activities. This data, delivered by best-in-class ultra-wideband sensors, supports lean manufacturing goals by identifying new efficiencies and opportunities for continuous improvement, and making it easier to monitor and enforce stringent quality control.
OptimizationWhen work-in-progress (WIP) is tracked through individual pro-cesses, location awareness means clear visibility of production status. Ubisense Manufacturing Solutions support continuous improvement initiatives by measuring and analyzing process flow to indicate areas for potential improvement. When coupled with a baseline production plan, automatic process monitoring also provides real-time alerts whenever progress deviates off schedule. This enables rapid intervention long before impacting delivery schedules.
QualityWhen tools are wirelessly tracked, location awareness means error proofing and quality control. Ubisense Manufacturing Solutions enable WIP and tool identification and tracking with six-sigma reliability, far surpassing traditional techniques. By wirelessly associating tools with tasks, Ubisense offers a virtual tether, recording tool operations for quality records and disabling tools from performing unauthorized tasks. The elimination of the physical tether allows tools to roam freely and safely, and enables rapid line reconfiguration.
EfficiencyLocation awareness means knowing where everything is. Having this information alone can reap a quick return on investment (ROI). Keeping track of critical asset helps pinpoint misplaced items, streamline audits, optimize parts delivery and maximize asset utilization. And, by automating processes, Ubisense Manufacturing Solutions can eliminate time-consuming manual tasks like parts scanning and quality inspection stamping, ensuring production operates at optimal efficiency.
