Proven applications for Asset Tracking/ Track and Trace

Item tracking throughout the supply and manufacturing chain

15 Solution Examples

IoT-based track-and-trace solutions for industrial material flows. Workpiece carriers, equipment, or containers are tracked along the production line using combined positioning and identification technology. Operations in our network use these asset tracking systems to document movements, handovers, and responsibilities seamlessly – across locations and in an audit-proof manner. → Real-time data and cloud integration make tracking an integral part of modern IIoT platforms.

Object Localization in the Industrial IoT

16 Solution Examples

IoT-supported localization in industry – cross-site and centimeter-precise. Whether tugger trains, tools, or trolleys – using modern positioning technologies such as Ultra-Wideband (UWB) or Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), industrial companies in our network track their assets in real time. These IoT solutions for object localization not only save valuable search time but also enable automated process triggers (e.g. geofencing-based notifications) and the mapping of a digital twin on a central platform. → Practice-tested solutions from our partners provide maximum transparency on the shopfloor.

Identification of cargo units using IoT technologies

4 Solution Examples

RFID, barcode, 2D code – automated identification for logistics and manufacturing. In real time and without line of sight: operations in our network automatically identify loads upon goods receipt, transfers, or at loading gates. IoT-based identification solutions enable reliable capture of pallets, containers, or returnable packaging and integrate seamlessly into ERP or MES systems. → This reduces manual interventions and sources of error – through technologies already in productive use.

Object Recognition in Material Flow

4 Solution Examples

Artificial intelligence based on IoT data and sensor technology for object recognition in industrial environments. Using image processing, laser technology, or AI-based algorithms, IoT solutions at other operations in our network identify moving objects based on shape, size, or coding. This enables sorting, quality assurance, or rejection to be automated directly. → These proven IIoT applications reduce error rates and accelerate processes.

Parking Space Tracking via IoT Integration

3 Solution Examples

Every crate, every container – in exactly the right place. Our user companies rely on automated storage location tracking with IoT sensors to detect occupancy, vacancies, or misplacements in real time. In warehouse or production environments, optical, RFID, or capacitive sensors provide precise status information – for example to control tugger trains or for material replenishment. → This creates order in material flow – with solutions already in productive use in our network.

Digital Goods Receipt with Real-Time Data

3 Solution Examples

Transparency from the very first process step – through intelligent IoT systems. Many other operations in our network optimize their goods receipt with IoT solutions that automatically consolidate data from delivery notifications, scans, and condition information. Geofencing features enable automatic capture upon arrival at the company premises.

Benefits of Asset Tracking/ Track and Trace

Benefits of Asset Tracking: Create Transparency, Optimise Processes

Real-Time Transparency Across Your Supply Chain

With asset tracking and track & trace, you keep your valuable goods in view in real time – from production to final delivery. Modern IIoT technologies such as GPS and RFID tracking enable continuous monitoring of asset location and condition. This allows you to detect potential disruptions in your supply chain early and respond efficiently before delays or losses occur.

Security and Protection Against Loss

Track & trace ensures you maintain control over your goods. Smart sensors immediately report unauthorised access or unusual movements, helping to prevent theft or damage. This seamless monitoring not only provides security but also minimises the risk of financial losses and builds trust with your customers and partners.

Efficient Logistics and Warehousing

Continuous asset tracking optimises warehouse processes, material flows and transports. Track & trace helps maintain an overview of your inventory, avoid overstocking and ensure the availability of critical resources. This reduces costs and accelerates the entire value chain – from procurement to delivery.

Improved Customer Satisfaction

Transparency in the supply chain strengthens customer trust. With precise information on delivery status and possible delays, you can communicate proactively and guarantee reliability. On-time deliveries and traceable processes make you a preferred partner and strengthen your competitive position.

Sustainability and Cost Savings

Optimise your logistics to use resources more efficiently. Track & trace helps you plan transports better, avoid empty runs and optimise routes. This not only leads to significant cost savings but also reduces CO₂ emissions and supports your sustainability goals.
