Siemens announces acquisition of Agilion GmbH
西門(mén)子宣布收購(gòu)Agilion公司
April 5, 2018 - With effect from March 29, 2018, Siemens has taken over ownership of the company Agilion GmbH based in Chemnitz. Agilion is a supplier of industrial Real-Time Locating Systems (RTLS) focusing on applications in production, logistics and maintenance. The company is recognized as a pioneer in the field of RTLS in the Ultra Wide Band (UWB) frequency spectrum. This technology enables precise localization within a range of just a few centimeters, tracking of a number of different assets.
2018年4月5日——從2018年3月29日起,西門(mén)子正式接管了位于開(kāi)姆尼茨的Agilion GmbH公司的所有權(quán)。Agilion是工業(yè)實(shí)時(shí)定位系統(tǒng)(RTLS)的供應(yīng)商,專注于生產(chǎn)、物流和維護(hù)應(yīng)用。該公司被公認(rèn)是超寬帶(UWB)頻譜實(shí)時(shí)定位系統(tǒng)領(lǐng)域的先驅(qū)。這項(xiàng)技術(shù)能夠在幾厘米的范圍內(nèi)精確定位,追蹤多種不同資產(chǎn)。
Uses for RTLS include a range of applications in complex environments. Used in a manufacturing scenario, for instance, it enables monitoring of the production process and a transparent material flow. Real-time data made available using RTLS about the location and status of assets forms the basis for networking involved players and logistical processes along the value chain. This allows users to automatically compare the position of every production asset with the 3D model of the product or production environment. Evaluation and combination of this “digital twin” with other information – for instance using apps in the open IoT operating system MindSphere – are designed to enhance optimization of production and logistics processes. RTLS also provides the foundation for workflows in production, material flow control and logistics, for instance in conjunction with Automatic Guided Vehicles (AGVs) or mobile robots.
實(shí)時(shí)定位系統(tǒng)的用途包括復(fù)雜環(huán)境中的一系列應(yīng)用程序。例如,在制造業(yè)場(chǎng)景中使用它可以監(jiān)控生產(chǎn)過(guò)程和透明物料流。使用實(shí)時(shí)定位系統(tǒng)提供的關(guān)于資產(chǎn)位置和狀態(tài)的實(shí)時(shí)數(shù)據(jù)構(gòu)成了價(jià)值鏈上參與者與物流過(guò)程之間聯(lián)網(wǎng)的基礎(chǔ)。這允許用戶通過(guò)產(chǎn)品或生產(chǎn)環(huán)境的3D模型,自動(dòng)比較每個(gè)生產(chǎn)資產(chǎn)的位置。這種“數(shù)字雙胞胎”與其他信息的評(píng)估和組合——例如在開(kāi)放物聯(lián)網(wǎng)操作系統(tǒng)MindSphere中應(yīng)用程序的使用——旨在加強(qiáng)生產(chǎn)和物流過(guò)程的優(yōu)化。 實(shí)時(shí)定位系統(tǒng)還為生產(chǎn)、物料流量控制和物流工作流程提供基礎(chǔ),例如與自動(dòng)導(dǎo)向車輛(AGV)或移動(dòng)機(jī)器人相結(jié)合。
