Oceasoft creates two automation tools to optimize cold-chain monitoring
The company’s new automation tools, a Loading Bench for fast datalogger configuration and OceaBridge for automated wireless data collection, bring several sought-after features for cold-chain monitoring management for transportation and high volume shipment.
The Oceasoft Loading Bench programs Oceasoft Atlas dataloggers in 2 seconds wirelessly using NFC (Near Field Communication) technology. The process includes a quick series of tests and controls as a last-minute quality control measure. The company plans to launch the Oceasoft loading bench in Q2 2017.
The OceaBridge uses Bluetooth Low-Energy to automatically detect all dataloggers entering its wireless range and collect recorded sensor readings and other important information.
Oceasoft claim these new automatization tools and cloud services, datalogger programming and reading processes are now fast and easy. Used in combination with OceaView, a web based software running on computer and mobile devices, all programmed and collected data are accessible from anywhere at any time.
Why these innovations are important?
In 2018, 1 out of every 2 pharmaceutical products will be thermo sensitive and will require to be temperature monitored from manufacturing to ‘last mile’ delivery. The same holds true for food products, industrial scenarios, the environment, and many other business sectors.
This progression, combined with market globalization, is leading naturally to increased volumes of shipping under controlled temperature conditions. Supply chain management may thus be burdened by heavy processes, especially when handling high volumes.
Programming, starting missions, and collecting data from hundreds or thousands of dataloggers daily is a huge drain on time and human resources. Oceasoft developed these tools in order to solve this issue by automating key operational processes to reduce risks and optimize the overall logistics chain.
Laurent Rousseau, CEO of Oceasoft, explains:
“At Oceasoft, we didn’t just create a datalogger. We took users into consideration from the beginning of the supply chain to the end. We help optimize the whole supply chain, saving time and energy to meet real-world challenges of our customers.”
