Why do companies need Smart Warehouse Technology?

Warehouses were long managed manually, failing to meet modern demands and lacking sufficient safety measures—until the Industry 4.0 revolution. This new era introduced automation to manufacturing, warehousing, and distribution. Today, digital transformation in supply chains is crucial for company success.

Lone Worker Safety Solutions in Industry

Whether in an office or a large production facility, safety comes first in workplaces. Especially in industrial production areas, mines, construction sites, industrial personnel should be wary of their own as well as their colleagues’ safety above all else. In the industrial sector, there is a huge portion of employees who have to work alone due to their nature of their work.

Forklift Safety & Collision Avoidance System

In order to achieve the highest possible occupational safety in all work areas of forklifts, Wipelot has developed Safezone product range, a complete collision and warning system, using the UWB technology. Since each forklift operation environment is unique, Safezone family was designed as a solution that meets all requirements, with maximum flexibility that considers the operation environment, personnel and equipment structures.

How RFID Is Changing Work Safety Practices?

RFID is a member of the technology group called Automatic Identification and Data Capture (AIDC). Although the history of its use dates back to the World War Two, the first modern RFID patent was granted in 1973. Its intended use is basically recognizing objects, collecting data about the objects, and sharing this data with the relevant software systems.

What is RFID technology and how does it work?

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is an automatic tracking system using a chip and reader to enable wireless data exchange. RFID tags can capture, record, and transmit product data even when out of sight, allowing continuous data access without direct line-of-sight with the object.

Real-time Operations in 2021

Real time operating systems are on the fast lane to becoming the norm in industrial and manufacturing industries, as well as all sectors that are increasingly implementing cloud systems. RTOS diverges from different operating systems that concern computing in terms of its specific response time to various external circumstances. While the standard operating system offers a soft real-time response to instances, RTOS is known to ensure a deterministic and swift reaction that can guarantee efficient completion of tasks.

Why is IoT the Future of Industrial Functioning?

With the digital revolution sweeping the globe, the Internet of Things (IoT) has become essential across sectors, especially in the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Nearly half of global IoT spending is focused on industry utilities, transportation, and manufacturing. The industrial IoT market, now exceeding $900 billion, drives companies to adopt IoT solutions for business optimization and operational efficiency.

Asset Identification Technology with RFID

Asset identification is crucial for managing various movable or fixed assets, requiring a comprehensive tracking system. Workplace safety solutions rely on accurate asset identification, as mislabeling or duplication increases risks, affects compliance, hinders preventive maintenance, and compromises safety. Ensuring best practices is essential.

What is RTLS: Real Time Locating Systems?

Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS) enable tracking of items or people in real time, often by integrating various technologies. Widely used in industrial settings, RTLS supports asset management, timestamping, and continuous visibility, helping companies optimize operations, enhance safety, and make data-driven decisions.
