FME Zone

Alphasource^® Toolsaver^® FME Solution

It is vital that all equipment is accounted for as it enters and exits an FME Zone. Keeping track of the equipment can be a daunting task, as many plants log tools/equipment manually (by writing all of the information down). Our Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) solution will eliminate the overwhelming task of logging each and every piece of equipment, by automatically identifying each piece as it enters and exits the zone; and instantly and accurately reconciling equipment logs.

Toolsaver® FME Solution is a materials, asset tracking and loss minimization system designed to track tools, spare parts, materials, MRO items and other supplies with unparalleled accuracy and confidence. Our software, developed specifically for the power-generation workplace, utilizes RFID, bar coding and other technologies to reliably and instantaneously transfers information to a powerful system for tool and equipment user accountability.
