Asset tracking, a challenge in any industry, is especially so in the oil, gas and industrial construction sectors – where assets are hard to tag and even harder to track because of shape, size and geography.

From pipe work to refinery QA checks, through tracking trucks and mission critical assets, SandLinks Active RFID technology is an excellent fit in industries that can’t compromise on asset tracking. Flexible and cost-effective, SandLinks can monitor and manage inventories and fixed assets, leveraging UWB Active RFID that operates optimally in almost any kind of harsh environment.

Using SandLinks systems, oil, gas and construction companies can lower labor costs associated with searching for equipment when needed, and eliminate down time owing to tool/equipment unavailability. Further SandLinks helps streamline error-prone manual audit processes, raise security of high-value assets, and lower staff frustration with operational inefficiencies and loss of productivity.

The SandLinks Tag’s omni-directional antenna accommodates random orientations of the tag with respect to the interrogator. Together with the tag’s small form factor, this enables maximum flexibility in fixture of tag to item.

The low cost of the SandLinks Tag makes it practical to tag equipment, as well as bulk materials like pipes, construction tools, and construction material.

SandLinks use of UWB Active RFID enables tag reading even in harsh metallic environments, where other types of RFID fail due to the multi-pass phenomenon.

SandLinks real time positioning of tagged items facilitates location of tools and equipment within the warehouse or construction site.

SandLinks’ long read ranges (tens of meters indoors, up to hundreds of meters outdoors) mean that fewer interrogators are required to cover large areas.
