Morita Group is tracking the status and location of each truck as it is assembled at the company’s site in Osaka, Japan, using Kokusai Kogyo software and Quuppa Locators and tags to detect where each vehicle is in the factory or yard.
Monitoring hundreds of customized fire trucks throughout a large manufacturing site and yard can be a labor-intensive process. To make it easier to identify where its trucks are located as they are built, Morita Group has deployed a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) solution from Kokusai Kogyo Co. (KKC) using Quuppa Locator sensors and BLE tags on each vehicle. The solution can identify each vehicle within about 1 meter (3.3 feet) at the 55,000-square meter facility.
