Asset Locating System for Electronics Manufacturing
Modern electronics manufacturing demands instant visibility. WISER’s asset locating system for electronics manufacturing delivers real-time tracking of WIP, tools, PCBAs, semiconductors, and subassemblies with sub-meter accuracy. The system uses ultra-wideband technology and auto calibrating wireless mesh network to locate every tagged asset across your facility. With us, operators stop searching, and production keeps moving.
Precision Tracking Built for Non-Linear Electronics Manufacturing
WISER’s asset locating system for electronics manufacturing tracks moving parts, tools, and assemblies in real time without relying on fixed workflows or manual scans. It maintains accuracy in metal-rich, signal-hostile environments where RFID and BLE systems fail.
This innovative functionality allows facility teams to gain reliable, real-time visibility without disrupting their existing production flow. This same resilience makes it ideal for semiconductor facilities, where wafers, carriers, and tools move through variable process steps across multiple cleanroom zones.
Designed for High-Mix, High-Value Workflows
Electronics lines run complex jobs with frequent changeovers, specialized tooling, and tight quality controls. WISER supports this by tracking every tagged asset individually, no matter how unpredictable the routing or staging. From PCB assemblies to semiconductor fabrication, WISER supports high-mix production where every asset’s location and process history matter.
The system adapts to dynamic floor layouts and non-linear workflows, capturing detailed movement history for each part or subassembly.
WIP Asset Locating for Electronics & Automotive Subassemblies
Electronics and automotive subassembly lines demand total visibility of in-progress materials, tools, and components – especially when workflows shift or bottlenecks appear without warning. Some of the most common applications include:
- PCB Assembly Zones: Track boards through soldering, inspection, and rework without manual scans
- Automotive Electronics Subassembly: Monitor harnesses, sensors, and modules across multiple lines
- Tool and Cart Tracking: Ensure location and readiness of shared tools, ESD-safe carts, and fixtures
- Quality and Calibration Areas: Maintain full visibility and automatic audit trails for assets under inspection, calibration, or quality hold
- WIP Staging and Buffer Zones: Locate partial builds and prevent slowdowns caused by misplaced work
- Semiconductor Fabrication and Packaging: Track wafers, carriers, and process tools across cleanroom zones for precise, contamination-safe visibility
By bringing real-time location data into these key processes, manufacturers reduce search time, tighten traceability, and avoid delays that compromise delivery schedules.
Where Our Asset Locating System Makes the Biggest Impact
WISER’s electronics WIP asset locating system provides critical tracking in areas where parts frequently stall or disappear.
It excels in non-linear environments with flexible workstations, mobile storage, and floating inspection zones.
Manufacturing teams use it to monitor key components across simultaneous builds. In PCBA and related electronics processes, it brings clarity to rework loops, test bays, and isolation areas.
These are zones where assets vanish and where WISER makes them visible.
