Resumo

THIS DOCUMENT PRESENTS A MODULAR TRACEABILITY SYSTEM THAT ALLOWS INTEGRATION WITH ERP SYSTEMS, AS WELL AS INTEGRATION WITH RFID FOR IDENTIFICATION AND GEO-POSITIONING TECHNOLOGIES. THE SYSTEM IS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE A COMPLETE AND EFFICIENT SOLUTION FOR TRACKING TRAIN CARS & LOCOMOTIVES AND CONTROL THE TRANSPORT ORDERS TO LOAD AND UNLOAD MATERIAL. IN THIS ARTICLE IT WILL BE DESCRIBED THE IMPLEMENTATION FOR A RAILWAY YARD USED FOR STORAGE AND TRANSPORTATION OF INGOTS/SLABS/COILS IN TRAIN CARS OF A GLOBAL PRODUCER OF STEEL IN THE UNITED STATES. THE SYSTEM WAS IMPLEMENTED TO TRACK AND CONTROL THE TRAIN CARS AND LOCOMOTIVES AND CONTROL THE CARS TRANSPORT ORDERS THROUGH LOAD AND UNLOAD LOCATIONS WITH THE OBJECTIVE TO INCREASE THE LOGISTICAL EFFICIENCY BY OPTIMIZING THE DISTANCE COVERED BY LOCOMOTIVES. AFTER IMPLEMENTATION IT WAS POSSIBLE TO OBSERVE A SERVICE TIME DECREASE TO WAIT A CARS TRAIN FOR LOADING OR UNLOADING, AND A REDUCTION DISTANCE COVERED BY LOCOMOTIVES WITHOUT CARS DUE TO EFFECTIVE USE OF LOCOMOTIVES. THE SYSTEM HAS BEEN TOTALLY INTEGRATED THROUGH THE INTERFACE WITH THE ERP SYSTEM AND THE USE OF DIFFERENT HARDWARE: TABLET, SCANNER, PC, GPS AND RFID. THE SYSTEM INCLUDES THE DIGITALIZATION OF THE RAILWAY LOGISTICS PROCESS AND WORKFLOWS OPTIMIZATION, BY MEANS OF UTILIZATION THE ESSENTIAL CARS MOVEMENTS TO MEET THE REAL DEMANDS. IT WAS CREATED A BIG OPERATIONAL PANEL TO REPRESENT THE RAILWAY ROAD FOR BETTER USER EXPERIENCE BY OPERATORS.
