Tracking Industry
Increasing efficiency in production logistics with Dex7
Starting point
In the modern manufacturing industry, where production is often based on just-in-time principles, the precise tracking of assets and load carriers within production facilities is crucial. The challenge is to ensure a smooth flow of materials to avoid bottlenecks and maximize production efficiency.

Challenge
The key challenge lies in locating materials, components and finished products within the production area. Insufficient visibility leads to delays, increased stock levels and ultimately a loss of productivity and competitiveness. There is an urgent need for a system that enables transparent, precise and automatic tracking.
Solution approach
Dex7 offers a customized solution to overcome this challenge by implementing a sophisticated asset tracking system. This system uses advanced IoT technology to equip all assets and load carriers with intelligent sensors. These sensors enable continuous monitoring and location of objects within the production facility.
Implementation
The implementation begins with the integration of Dex7 sensors in all critical assets and load carriers. These sensors communicate with a network of receivers and a central data processing platform that collects and analyzes the location data. The platform provides an intuitive user interface where users can visualize the current location of each asset and track its movements. Through integration with existing ERP and production planning systems, the data is seamlessly embedded into operational processes.
Results
- Increased transparency: Visualization of the location and status of assets and load carriers enables precise monitoring and control of the material flow.
- Increased efficiency: The minimization of search times and the optimization of the material flow lead to accelerated production and reduced throughput times.
- Cost reduction: Significant cost savings can be realized by improving asset utilization and reducing inventory levels.
- Improved decision-making: The availability of data supports decision making and enables agile adaptation to changing production conditions.
