Asset Tracking for Manufacturing
Track tool carts, WIP containers, and AGVs across your production floor. Know where every tracked asset is without leaving your desk.
The Problem
Where Things Break Down
Shared tool carts vanish between shifts
Expensive tooling moves between CNC clusters, assembly stations, and calibration rooms. The outgoing shift leaves tools somewhere. The incoming shift spends the first 20 minutes finding them.
WIP containers sit unaccounted between stations
Batches leave machining and should arrive at assembly within an hour. But some get parked in the wrong buffer area. By the time someone notices, the assembly line is waiting.
AGV routes conflict with manual traffic
Without a live view of AGV positions alongside manual forklift routes, traffic conflicts create delays and safety concerns on the production floor.
Our Approach
What Sandhed Does Differently
Sandhed connects to your existing RTLS infrastructure through dedicated bridge services for UWB, BLE, and RFID systems. Tag positions are transformed from vendor coordinates to your floor plan coordinate system and displayed as live markers on your 3D model. You see every tracked forklift, tool, cart, and WIP container on the actual floor layout, updated continuously. Zone-based events trigger alerts when assets enter or leave defined areas.
Live Asset Positions on Your Floor Plan
BLE, UWB, and RFID tag positions mapped to your 3D floor plan in real time. See every tracked forklift, tool, and WIP container on the actual layout with continuous position updates.
Zone Entry and Exit Alerts
Define zones on your floor plan and get notified when assets enter or leave. Track dwell times in staging areas, flag tools that leave their assigned zone, and monitor forklift traffic patterns.
Multi-Vendor RTLS Support
Connect UWB systems, BLE beacons, RFID readers, and overhead tracking in a single view. Sandhed normalizes data from seven RTLS vendors into one unified position format on your floor plan.
Coordinate Mapping Wizard
A visual calibration tool aligns your RTLS vendor's coordinate system with your floor plan. Place control points, compute the transformation, and verify accuracy with a grid overlay before going live.

Inventory Visibility
Your WMS knows quantities. Sandhed shows you where that inventory physically sits on your floor plan, with zone-based counts and heatmaps that update as stock moves.
