What ROI for an IoT location solution in industry?

Published on 17/11/2021

Feedback on an EDITAG Industries customer case.

One of our customers manufactures machines in a workshop with several dozen workstations.

There are about fifty machines in production for the main assembly part and about as many in intermediate stocks awaiting customer customization, quality test, after-sales service or simply in stock of new machines ready to go. shipping.

The machines are bulky, difficult to handle. They are stored by the operators with simple rules. However, finding a machine to complete your treatment takes a long time. 

The direct cost of this lost time is significant and we must also consider the costs incurred such as production stoppages, delivery delays, etc.

The EDITAG WIP solution

Our track and trace solution EDITAG Industries  (RTLS) onsists of placing one of our IIoT sensors, mOOnTAG, on each machine. The hyperlocation functions by zone make it possible to know the position of each machine in real time and considerably reduce search times.

The solution also makes it possible to know precisely the processing times on each workstation, to automatically update the production kanban board and to have a perfect and real-time view of the production.
