Production Process

Real-time location tracking

Process reliability over all production processes on the assembly line through real-time location data from INTRANAV

Intelligent networking and real-time localization of all production-relevant objects and intralogistic means of transport are decisive for the significant increase in efficiency for lean, continuously optimized lean management. We at INTRANAV digitize your production processes with our RTLS platform suite and visualize them as a digital twin, giving you many more options for process automation, control and analysis in addition to real-time tracking. The real-time tracking data can be measured stably even in industrial environments with an accuracy of ± 10 cm.

Challenges in production

Blind phases between the production steps

Work steps do not run as intended. There is no control possibility, for example, to detect unnecessary loops and to resolve them in a targeted manner.

Goal

Process reliability on the production line:
Non-compliance with work steps, detection of unnecessary loops of workers and vehicles.
Uncertainty in identification

Means of production, production steps, industrial goods and vehicles cannot be directly and clearly assigned.

Goal

Automatic and reliable identification of production equipment, production steps, industrial goods and vehicles.
High expenditure of time

Manual triggering and initiation of production steps on the production line requires a lot of time calculated on the production day.

Goal

Automatic triggering of processes by (virtual zones and triggers): acknowledgements, bookings and scans.

Increase of process reliability
at the production line

1

Securing and monitoring the production flow

Real-time process monitoring over all objects on the production line, as well as ensuring that assembly equipment and tools are in their intended location.
2

Reduction of shrinkage

Prevention of theft and loss through tracking of means of production and industrial goods.
3

Making employee productivity measurable

Evaluation of time expenditure for the respective production step, analysis which work steps can be carried out more efficiently.

Assembly/ Load carrier tracking

Indoor, yard & global management

Precise positioning of the assembly racks / load carriers on the shop floor (indoor) and in the yard (outdoor) through live process visualisation on the INTRANAV.IO map
Route and vehicle utilisation optimisation
Automated triggering of processes (e.g. door opening, warning lights, acknowledgements, ident bookings, triggering scans, starting material flows, triggering further work steps)
Securing the material flow: Enables timely intervention in case of incidents or disturbances, securing the process between the production steps on the assembly line
Informing people, triggering upcoming processes or moving into certain zones, requesting tools or material, etc.
Production equipment monitoring by INTRANAV SMART sensors
Make blind phases visible: Recognizing “blindruns” between the respective production cycles (what happens between the steps with my material, product, tools, vehicles, personnel etc.)

Route Train Tracking

Indoor & yard management

Precise positioning of the route trains on the shop floor (indoor) and in the yard (outdoor) through live display on the INTRANAV.IO Map
Route and vehicle utilisation optimisation
Automated triggering of processes (e.g. door opening, warning lights, etc.)
Freight monitoring through production equipment monitoring by INTRANAV SMART sensors
Warnings in case of dangerous situations, process interruptions or if unauthorised zones are entered on the premises

AGV Tracking

Indoor

Precise positioning of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) on the shop floor (indoor) and through live display on the INTRANAV.IO Map
Route and vehicle utilisation optimisation
Automated triggering of processes (e.g. door opening, warning lights, etc.)
Cargo monitoring by INTRANAV SMART sensors
Warnings in case of dangerous situations, process interruptions or if unauthorised zones are entered on the premises
Connection to transport vehicle guidance systems also enables fully automatic route optimisation as well as calculation and taking of the most efficient routes. Collisions are a thing of the past thanks to integrated safety systems.

Production order tracking (FAUF)

Indoor, yard & global management

Digitization, visualisation and monitoring of production orders via production processes in real time via the INTRANAV.IO Suite
Automated triggering of processes (e.g. door opening, warning lights, acknowledgements, ident bookings, triggering scans, starting material flows, triggering further work steps)
Route and vehicle utilisation optimisation
Securing the material flow: Enables timely intervention in case of incidents or malfunctions and ensures the process between the production steps on the production line
Making staff productivity measurable: How much time is needed for which production step? Where can be optimized?

Optimization through Production Tracking
with the use of INTRANAV

Process safety

The digitalization and visualization of the entire production process makes it possible to intervene in time at any time in case of incidents or disturbances in the production process.
Increase in productivity

With our analysis platform INTRALYTICS, the generated location data of all processes on the production line enable the evaluation of work and zone utilization, route utilization and much more.
Increase in efficiency

Reliable identification through auto-identification and recognition processes (barcode elimination, reduction of scanning processes), automatic postings and confirmations.
