2024-08-16/ By Admin

This solution utilizes ultra wideband (UWB) technology to provide high-precision positioning management for warehouse storage, achieving real-time and accurate positioning, tracking, and management of personnel, equipment, and goods, improving warehouse operation efficiency, safety, and management level.

1、 Advantages of UWB technology

UWB technology has the characteristics of high precision, high reliability, real-time performance, low power consumption, and easy deployment. It can achieve centimeter level positioning accuracy, strong anti-interference, and is not affected by complex warehouse environments, ensuring stable and reliable positioning. Real time tracking of object position changes provides timely and accurate information for warehouse management. The device has low power consumption and is suitable for long-term operation in warehouses. And the system is easy to install and can be quickly deployed in warehouses of different sizes.

2、 System composition

It consists of UWB positioning tag, positioning base stations, positioning servers, and management software. Tags are worn or installed on personnel, equipment, and goods to emit positioning signals; The base station is deployed at key locations in the warehouse to receive signals and calculate location information; The server processes data, calculates location, and provides storage management functions; Management software provides visual interfaces for managers to monitor, query, and analyze location information in real-time.

3、 Function implementation

Personnel positioning and management: Real time tracking of staff positions to ensure safety and improve efficiency. Set up electronic fences and issue alerts for personnel entering hazardous areas. Statistically track work time and trajectory to provide a basis for performance evaluation.

Equipment positioning and management: Real time positioning of forklifts and other equipment for convenient scheduling and management. Monitor the operating status and usage, and maintain and upkeep in a timely manner. Optimize path planning to improve equipment utilization efficiency.

Goods positioning and management: achieve precise positioning of goods, quickly search and improve the efficiency of inbound and outbound warehousing. Manage storage locations to improve space utilization. Track the transportation process to ensure safe and accurate delivery.

4、 Implementation steps

Firstly, conduct a requirements analysis to understand the warehouse layout, business processes, and management needs, and determine the requirements for positioning accuracy and coverage range. Next, design the system architecture and deployment plan. Then install the equipment and debug and optimize it. Configure management software to achieve integration and data exchange. Train management personnel and conduct system testing. Finally, it will be officially launched and continuously monitored to optimize system performance.
