With the launch of the Transport Data Logger (TDL) at Hanover Fair, Bosch Connected Devices and Solutions brings transparency into the entire supply chain. By being attached to the shipment of sensitive industrial goods, e.g. industrial machines, and recording relevant measured parameters such as temperature, humidity, tilt, and shock, the TDL makes the delivery process visible and traceable. These measurements are then documented and visualized through an app for smartphones and tablets. Since the limits of each parameter can be individually configured, any parameter that exceeds its limit is traceable thereby ensuring that the appropriate stage of the supply chain is held accountable. In the event that a parameter exceeds its limit, the TDL provides verifiable proof and a reliable indication for possible primary and secondary damage. In the case that no limits are exceeded, the TDL is the evidence of a carefully conducted and failure-free transport chain.
