The Cambridge, UK-based Ubisense has announced the global market introduction of its next-generation SmartSpace Real-Time Location System (RTLS) platform, designed to enhance AI-led manufacturing processes.
The latest iteration of the SmartSpace RTLS platform incorporates significant updates that align with modern manufacturing technologies, including a newly redesigned user interface for improved navigation and accessibility. The interface supports more intuitive interaction with the platform’s extensive functionalities, facilitating greater ease of use across various manufacturing environments.
Engineered for seamless integration with AI-driven systems, the SmartSpace RTLS platform enhances operational efficiency by providing detailed insights into manufacturing processes. Its scalable architecture allows for flexible implementation, catering to both small-scale and large, complex operational environments. This adaptability ensures that the platform meets diverse operational requirements effectively.
The platform is equipped with advanced analytics capabilities that enable comprehensive analysis of operational data. These tools facilitate process optimization and cost reduction by delivering actionable insights into system performance. Additionally, robust security features are incorporated to protect data integrity and ensure compliance with industry standards.
SmartSpace’s functionality extends to several key areas within manufacturing. The Work-In-Progress (WIP) Tracker provides real-time visibility into the production process, allowing manufacturers to monitor the status and location of materials and products. This capability helps in identifying bottlenecks, reducing idle times, and improving overall production flow.
The Asset Management solution creates a digital representation of the manufacturing environment, tracking the real-time location and status of critical assets. This feature ensures the availability of tools and equipment, reducing downtime caused by misplaced or unavailable resources. It also includes automated alerts for unauthorized use or movement of assets, supporting compliance and security.
The End-of-Line Monitoring solution offers continuous visibility into the final stages of the production process. By tracking products and vehicles in real-time, it integrates with existing planning systems to ensure quality standards and timely delivery. The Logistics Optimization feature improves the flow of materials within the facility, enhancing process visibility and supporting flexible manufacturing strategies.
Predictive Maintenance capabilities within SmartSpace allow manufacturers to shift from reactive to proactive maintenance strategies. By continuously monitoring equipment conditions, potential failures can be predicted and maintenance activities scheduled accordingly. This approach reduces downtime, lowers maintenance costs, and extends the lifespan of critical machinery.
The integration of AI with the SmartSpace platform provides foundational data and analytics for advanced applications. AI algorithms analyze the vast amounts of data generated, enabling enhanced decision-making and process optimization. Predictive insights and automated process adjustments further support efficient operations and high-quality standards.
