Forklift Location Tracking

Forklift location and movement history are compared against work orders and shipping records. Evidence of each vehicle's movement stays on record, so missed processing can be identified.

Track each forklift individually and link it to MES work data

Attach an ORBRO UWB Tag to each forklift and collect its location signals with TwinTracker UWB. ORBRO Server processes vehicle IDs and location histories, then sends them to MES via API or MQTT. Receiver placement and data update intervals are finalized through on-site testing.

TwinTracker UWB

Receives signals from multiple ORBRO UWB Tags and calculates each vehicle's position. In sites with steel structures and large equipment, receiver placement is finalized through live forklift driving tests.

Location monitoring for a large forklift fleet

Distinguish individual vehicles even when they are parked side by side in dense areas. Search by vehicle ID to quickly view current location, movement history, and operating status.

Current forklift location searched by vehicle ID in ORBRO OS

Find Current Location by Vehicle ID

Search by vehicle ID to find the forklift's current location. ORBRO OS also shows the last signal time and movement status. Vehicle ID-to-Tag ID mapping rules are finalized during deployment.

Individual positions of forklifts in a densely parked area

Distinguish Vehicles in Dense Parking

Identify the position of each forklift even when vehicles are parked at narrow intervals. TwinTracker UWB receives multiple Tag signals simultaneously, and ORBRO Server calculates coordinates for each vehicle. Parking gaps and metal shielding effects are calibrated through on-site tests.

Site with some 1,000 forklifts totaled by zone and status

Aggregating locations across some 1,000 forklifts

Aggregate the current positions of some 1,000 forklifts by zone to see where vehicles pile up. Link MES status data and operating, idle and inspection states are shown against the same vehicle number. The screen refresh interval is set to the number of vehicles tracked and the volume of location data being sent.

Analyze Routes and Dwell Time by Vehicle

Review each vehicle's route and zone dwell time in chronological order. Repeated trips and long dwell records reveal bottlenecks and inefficient paths. Weak-signal areas are calibrated using live driving test results.

Compare Location History with MES Results

Link each vehicle ID to an ORBRO UWB Tag to record zone entries, exits, and movement history. Compare MES work orders with actual movement to identify missing processing records.

Link Vehicle IDs with ORBRO UWB Tags

Link each forklift ID to an ORBRO UWB Tag ID for vehicle identification. ORBRO Server manages the mapping and connects it with MES vehicle data. Mapping information can be updated when a tag is replaced or reassigned.

Forklift crossing the boundary line of a shipping zone

Automatically Record Shipping Zone Entry and Exit

Automatically record each vehicle's entry and exit times for shipping zones. Store the vehicle ID with its zone dwell history and compare it with MES shipping records. Shipping completion rules are configured to match the customer's MES process.

MES work order compared with actual forklift movement

Connect MES Work Orders with Movement Results

Compare MES work orders with actual forklift movements. Send vehicle ID, location, and zone-crossing data through API or MQTT. Job completion checks are configured to match the customer's MES criteria.

Alert on Receiver and Tag Issues

Check ORBRO UWB Tag battery levels and TwinTracker UWB communication status by device. Quickly find inspection targets using connection loss, low battery, and last signal time. Alert thresholds and recipients are configured for site maintenance rules.
