Siemens announces acquisition of Agilion GmbH
西門子宣布收購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，西門子正式接管了位于開姆尼茨的Agilion GmbH公司的所有權。Agilion是工業實時定位系統（RTLS）的供應商，專注于生產、物流和維護應用。該公司被公認是超寬帶（UWB）頻譜實時定位系統領域的先驅。這項技術能夠在幾厘米的范圍內精確定位，追蹤多種不同資產。
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.
實時定位系統的用途包括復雜環境中的一系列應用程序。例如，在制造業場景中使用它可以監控生產過程和透明物料流。使用實時定位系統提供的關于資產位置和狀態的實時數據構成了價值鏈上參與者與物流過程之間聯網的基礎。這允許用戶通過產品或生產環境的3D模型，自動比較每個生產資產的位置。這種“數字雙胞胎”與其他信息的評估和組合——例如在開放物聯網操作系統MindSphere中應用程序的使用——旨在加強生產和物流過程的優化。 實時定位系統還為生產、物料流量控制和物流工作流程提供基礎，例如與自動導向車輛（AGV）或移動機器人相結合。
