4 Reasons MOTOTRBO Ion is Perfect for Manufacturing Communications

Author: Nicky Jackson, Marketing Campaign Manager, MCA

Safety, efficiency, and uptime depend on fast, accurate decision-making, and communications. Manufacturing facilities face several unique challenges that impact the ability to communicate clearly and effectively including coverage throughout widespread and diverse facilities, audio quality in loud environments, long battery life, device durability and reliability in potentially challenging environments. Above all, manufacturing organizations are challenged by the ability to connect workers and teams across increasingly diverse devices.

MOTOTRBO Ion alleviates the challenges of device proliferation, keeping your team connected across networks and devices.

Here are 4 reason why MOTOTRBO Ion is Perfect for Manufacturing Communications::

1) Work Ticketing

A vital piece of equipment goes down on the assembly line. Using their MOTOTRBO Ion, the worker can create a work ticket for the broken equipment, capture and attach a photo to the ticket, and radio out to the line manager to make them aware of the issue.

2) Video Security Integration

While on the factory floor, the security supervisor receives a mobile alert on their MOTOTRBO Ion about suspicious activity in the loading dock located on the other side of the campus. With Ion, the supervisor can pull up a video security feed of that area directly from the factory floor, and instantly dispatch one of his team members by push-to-talk.

3) Inventory Barcode Scanning

The production line is running low on a specific paint color needed for an upcoming production run. With the integrated scanning functionality, team members can use their MOTOTRBO Ion to scan the barcode of the paint and initiate a work order to secure the additional inventory required.

4) Connected Virtual Work Groups

A vital piece of equipment goes down on the assembly line. A line worker creates a work ticket from their MOTOTRBO Ion. This action triggers a group chat with the correct subject matter experts, who can now triage the incident virtually in real time, with the ability to share images and steam video right from the production line.
