The UWB module intelligent factory personnel positioning system solves the problem of factory personnel management, as to where the people in the factory are, whether they enter the dangerous area; whether there is a dangerous incident when working in the dangerous area; whether the emergency can be quickly implemented in the factory; No. Accurately find the last position of each person; at the workstation, whether to go to the wrong station; daily working time statistics; time-based wage calculation, time-based beat efficiency optimization sampling.

UWB module intelligent factory personnel positioning system

In order to solve these problems, many enterprises have introduced the factory personnel positioning system to conduct final sampling and summary through accurate positioning services, so as to grasp the activity tracking and work status analysis of each personnel in real time, and improve safety management and production capacity efficiency optimization.


The entire system is based on UWB module positioning technology as the underlying data sensing. The device tag and the base station communicate through UWB pulse signals. The base station forwards the tag information data to the positioning server, the data is processed by the positioning engine algorithm, and the accurate position information is transmitted through the open API interface. to the upper application.


Features of UWB Module Factory Personnel Positioning System

1. High-speed transmission

The base station equipment performs data backhaul through 5.8G Wi-Fi and Ethernet, ensuring high-speed data transmission.

2. High positioning accuracy

UWB ultra-wideband positioning technology is adopted to meet the high-precision positioning requirements of factory personnel. Compared with other technologies, the positioning accuracy is high, with an average of 30cm.

3. Ultra-low power consumption

For the label side, the low-power design is adopted, and the human label can be up to 3 months in TOF mode, and up to 6 months in TDOA mode.

4. Distributed systems

The system adopts distributed construction, which can meet the construction of multiple factories and branches at the same time, and is managed in the cloud, which makes data collection and analysis more convenient.


Factory personnel positioning function, factory personnel positioning management is mainly carried out from two aspects of safety and efficiency:


1. Personnel safety control


1) Break into the danger zone

In the production enterprise, there are some high temperature, high pressure dangerous areas, chemical enterprises, toxic gases, liquids, etc., and employees without relevant qualifications cannot enter these areas. When illegally entering these areas, the system and personnel positioning tags should generate an alarm until they leave. The alarm will be disarmed to avoid bodily harm from extreme entry.


2) High-risk work area

Even if qualified people enter some high-risk areas, they should complete the assignment within the stipulated time. Once the set working time is exceeded, the system will remind or directly eliminate the risk factors in the dangerous area through warnings.


3) Quick rescue

When people are injured, they need quick rescue. One is through the worker pressing the rescue button on the label, and the other is through the automatic perception of the label, which limits how long the time will be, generates an alarm, and reminds the background management personnel. Real-time and fast rescue can prevent workers from dying for too long.


4) Quick assembly and roll call

When a serious accident occurs in the entire project, it is necessary to quickly gather employees, call names, confirm that the real-time location of the employees is not reached, and carry out rescue to avoid casualties.


2. Improve staff efficiency


Based on the real-time location of each worker's UWB module in the factory, we can dig deep into the work efficiency, understand the difference in work efficiency, and promote subsequent continuous improvement and efficiency optimization; understand the time required for each processing process and evaluate production efficiency.

operating hours

Through the positioning of people, it can be accurately understood.

A. Attendance and vacation can be related to the salary system.

B. Working hours at the workstation each day.

C. Realize refined management of daily working hours, production line work, machine maintenance, production coordination, management meetings, etc.

Operating time and efficiency control

Working time and efficiency control, mainly through time and output.

A. The time required for the machining or assembly process, or the output during working hours.

B. Compared with other similar types of work, find room to improve work efficiency.

C. Compare the work efficiency in different periods.

Through horizontal and vertical comparison, find out the optimization space and optimize it.
