Asset tracking and fence warning in construction area

When fixed on large mechanical equipment or important industrial assets, M3 industrial beacon works together with the laid gateways to achieve precise positioning.

You can set up a geo-fence alarm by combining the gateway and the back-end platform. The geo-fence alarm comes in handy whenever construction equipment is in restricted areas or leaves the operation area. The alarm is activated and is displayed on the rear platform according to the positioning of the equipment. This indicates and notifies you that equipment has entered a restricted area. This feature helps enhance the online security control system for construction operations.

Product features:
•Anti-dust, Anti-shock, Anti-oil contamination, and waterproof
•Long life span and firm binding

Process optimization and real-time visibility/ monitoring on Logistics

Process optimization and real-time visibility/ monitoring on Logistics

M3 industrial beacon are attached to different cargo boxes that help match inventory information and quickly get accurate positioning in the region. Due to the different stock removal times, the delivery period can be shortened, manual operations can be, and inventories accuracy can be improved.

Enabling Product features:
•Anti-shock
•Long broadcasting range
•Long life span

Real-time workflow control on manufacturing

For intermediate manufacturers such as partial electroplate processing, the incoming raw materials are many, and the product types and processing quantities will fluctuate. This will result in failure in arranging a production plan accurately and classified storage in a fixed position. It will also require more manpower to offload, find and sort raw materials. However, if the manufacturer installs M3 industrial beacon on the materials and final products before putting them on storage, they can be located easily when their need arises. This will reduce the workforce required to fetch the products or materials, saving on the company’s resources.

M3 industrial beacon is also attached to specific materials or moving boxes to identify bottlenecks in the production process. This improves efficiency by comprehensively calculating the time of moving boxes throughout the production process.

Product feature:
•Anti-dust
•Anti-shock
•Anti-high temperature
•Anti-oil contamination
