Emerson releases next-gen GO Real-Time Tracker
Emerson, St. Louis, has released its next-generation GO Real-Time Tracker, which gives companies cold chain data throughout the shipping process.
The updated tracker is based on 4G/Category M technology, and as cellular communication providers phase out 2G/3G networks, Emerson is adopting emerging technologies, according to a news release.
The company unveiled the new GO Real-Time Tracker Feb. 5 at the Fruit Logistica expo in Berlin. It can monitor in-transit conditions including temperature, location, light and humidity, for up to 20 days of continuous operation, according to the release.
“We provide real-time data, insights and intervention services that allow our customers to take meaningful action for their valuable in-transit cargo,” Frank Landwehr, vice president and general manager of Cargo Solutions for Emerson, said in the release. “We look forward to helping our customers navigate the cellular transition so they can continue to use our services to deliver their highly valued cargo safely and on time to their customers.”
The company’s full suite of trackers is available in single- and multiple-use models, and shipments can be tracked in real time through cloud-based portals or mobile applications, according to the release.
Emerson has pre-production samples of the GO Real-Time 4G/Cat-M Tracker, with more availability in the second quarter of 2020 as production volumes build.
