How does RTLS Work?.
Real-time locating systems (RTLS), also known as real-time tracking systems, are used to automatically identify and track the location of objects or people in real time, usually within a building or other contained area. Wireless RTLS tags are attached to objects or worn by people, and in most RTLS, fixed reference points receive wireless signals from tags to determine their location
RTLS can enhance warehouse operations in the following scenarios.
- Employee safety/security
- Material flow
- Preventing theft
- process monitoring
- Equipment and inventory tracking
With RTLS solutions, productivity is increased, time is saved searching for products, and operational costs are reduced through more efficient calibration and preventative maintenance.
How does an RTLS system help you?.
- Gain more transparency in the manufacturing process
- Get real time data to quickly change the decisions
- Get real time Insights on internal flow of materials
- Decrease production delays
- Employees do not need to keep looking for pallets, containers, tools, test equipment, etc.
