We use the Iiwari Dashboard to demonstrate how accurately the Iiwari positioning system works.

It is also possible to purchase the Iiwari Development Kit for your own testing so that the benefits of historical data collected by positioning can be visually verified.

Indoor positioning
for manufacturing

Complement your existing WMS or ERP by
creating real time location information
for everything related to your production process.
Eliminate guesswork by basing all
decisions on accurate location data.

Manufacturing indoor positioning

Get the insight you need to optimise efficiency

1

Optimise Production

Specify the zones in which a specific job step is automatically acknowledged or start assembly in standby mode.

When the right things are measured, accurate information is obtained and areas for development can be tackled immediately.
2

Real Time Data

Get real-time location information for goods, tools and people so no time is wasted searching.

Work efficiency has a positive effect on work motivation.
3

Safety & Security

Indoor positioning helps to anticipate the need for labor accurately, ensuring there is always the right number of people at work.

Workplace accidents such as forklift collisions can also be avoided. By reducing the workload and number of incidents, staff sick leave can be reduced.
4

Reduction of production downtime

Production downtime can be reduced when raw materials and components are always ready and in the right place and arrival is reported automatically.
5

Maximum Efficiency

The exact duration of each production phase is known, so the cause of any slowdown in production is quickly identified.

This helps save time and work step durations.
6

Access control

Thanks to positioning, automatic monitoring of working hours and access control are possible.

Access permits can be defined for different areas and the alarm is triggered immediately if an unauthorized person enters the area. The alarm can also be given to the maximum number of people in a certain area.

Finding tools

The time spent searching for devices in vain is already a big financial loss in itself. A more difficult thing to measure, but very important from the point of view of operations, is the frustration of personnel due to constant searching and the consequent decrease in work motivation.

When the devices have Iiwari’s positioning tag attached, they can be found quickly even in a large facility. Iiwari’s indoor positioning system is easy to install even in an old building. The relatively small investment is worth it just because of the increase in work efficiency and motivation.

Data is everything to business

Data management is only possible by measuring, and indoor positioning for manufacturing provides a way to do this.

With Iiwari software, you can see the movement routes and speeds of both people and machines in real time. You will be able to avoid collisions, improve safety and working conditions and optimize material flows to make your work smoother, safer and more efficient.

In the video you can see, how modern log house company Salvos uses Iiwari positioning system in various ways for automatic production measurement and efficiency improvement. Video has English subtitles.

“We’ve tried all sorts of experiments, starting with coloring the tools according to the color of the workstation. Still, the tools were lost. With the Iiwari system, the problem was solved at once and cost-effectively. At the same time, we achieved the ability to measure total work time, ie the duration of phases. Now that we are developing our operations, we are able to measure whether the changes are going in the right direction or not, automatically.

It has been nice to develop the operation and product together with Iiwari. Iiwari has listened well to customer needs”.

Production phase measurement

In a smart factory, positioning can be used to automatically monitor the smoothness of production, the duration of work phases and the functionality of the layout of the production facilities, instead of short-term manual research, so-called clocking.

The assembly line defines the zones where the time spent is measured. In this way, the exact duration of each production phase and the time used by different work shifts for each production phase are known.

+100%

Equipment utilization can be as much as doubled by using
indoor positioning to track location.

-40%

Equipment acquisition costs can be reduced by 40% when they are fully utilized.

+20%

Increase operational efficiency through automated reporting and more efficient resource management.

Iiwari Asset Manager

The management and discoverability of devices to be calibrated is made much easier with the help of Iiwari Asset Manager.

  1. Read the device ID with the scanner. The device information is displayed on the screen from the database or you can add it manually.
  2. Set the calibration date.
  3. The list of devices to be calibrated next will facilitate work planning.
  4. Devices to be calibrated are shown on the map, so they are easy to find.

Zone alarm: Arrival of parts in the assembly area

The location information automatically creates a zone alert when all the necessary parts have arrived at the assembly area and assembly can begin. Get real-time information about the stages of production.

Build a smart factory with the help of positioning.

Automatic working time tracking

When employees have Iiwari’s positioning device, the hourly accounting is automatically updated when the employee walks in and out of the workplace. The system enabling working time monitoring is very simple. It is easy to install at all workplace entrances, and separate manual recording is no longer needed.

A small investment is worth it because of the increase in work efficiency and motivation, and especially the ease of monitoring working hours.

RTLS in Manufacturing
