Construction Solution

Dock Worker and Heavy Asset Tracking

Dock safety management standards are met, and subcontractor personnel are managed alongside your own. A pilot deployment in the priority zone spreads the budget across phases.

Receivers go up on two levels between every column

In a dock where columns stand about ten meters apart, mounting overhead alone rarely reaches four receivers. TwinTracker UWB units are split across an upper and a lower level so a tag is picked up by enough of them at once. Outdoor zones beyond the reach of power and network send their data up through LTE Gateway.

TwinTracker UWB

A reader that receives tag signals and calculates location. One unit above and one below on each column secures four simultaneous detections, and placement density is sized separately for office zones, docks and laydown yards. Cut the quantity and the position fix itself becomes unstable.

Dense columns and anchors on two levels

In a long, narrow dock, anchors mounted overhead alone do not deliver four simultaneous detections. Place them on an upper and a lower level at each column and size the density each zone needs separately.

Two-level anchor design in column-dense areas

For coordinates to come out accurate, a tag has to be seen at once by at least four TwinTracker UWB units. In a long, narrow area where columns stand about ten meters apart, overhead mounting alone rarely reaches four, so one unit goes above and one below on each column. Cut the quantity and the position fix itself becomes unstable.

Phased expansion from the priority zone

Office zones, docks and laydown yards each call for different accuracy and different mounting conditions. Sizing them zone by zone lets you start where the need is greatest and put the rest into the next budget. Build one zone as a pilot deployment, confirm it under the actual stacking layout, then widen the scope.

ID card type tags in access badge form

UWB ID CARD takes the same form as an access badge, so the step of handing devices out and collecting them drops away. At a shipyard where many people move between the office area and the site, issuing and collecting is itself an operating burden. Recognition carries over as they cross between the two areas, and subcontractor personnel are managed as a separate group.

In use and idle told apart by movement

For a crane weight or a large tool, whether it is free to use right now is needed more often than where it sits. Location and movement are read together to judge in use or idle, so you check the screen before walking out to look for it. Assets left unused for a long time collect into a list, and usage history is queried per asset.

Per-zone sizing and a pilot deployment

Install a small number of units in one zone first and confirm that positions hold under the actual stacking layout. Review outdoor stretches without power and scaffold free mounting as well, then fix the quantity.

Move requests sent to the site from the control view

Once you have found the asset you need, the next step is asking for it to be moved. Pick the target on the ORBRO Server screen, send the move request, and whether it was handled is recorded with it. Set the recipients for each responsible crew and the request reaches the right one.

Outdoor zones built without power or network

Docks and laydown yards have many stretches where mains power and network cabling do not reach. A configuration that sends data up through LTE Gateway extends a zone without pulling new lines, so you start with no excavation or wiring work. On overseas sites, check first whether a model with the required specifications can be sourced locally.

Mounting height reached without scaffolding

Working above a certain height outdoors calls for scaffolding, and cost and procedure grow with it. Review how to reach the height you need at the installation planning stage, whether by using existing structures or by switching the attachment method to something like magnetic mounting. The attachment method is decided against site conditions, and mounting height and coverage are sized together.

Rechecks when the stacking layout changes

As blocks and materials are stacked and cleared, the paths the radio signal travels change with them. A stretch that held yesterday can go unstable today, so whenever the yard layout shifts significantly, check detection stretch by stretch and adjust the placement if needed. Results taken with the yard empty are treated as reference only and verified again under the actual stacking layout.

Components Based on ORBRO OS

Each solution operates with various products connected on top of ORBRO OS. Configurations can be flexibly adjusted depending on the scope of application and on-site conditions.
