Background: A Tier 1 automotive manufacturer in Bavaria, Germany, operating 12 production lines with 340+ AGVs, needed to replace their aging WiFi 5 infrastructure that suffered from interference-related AGV stoppages averaging 23 minutes per shift.
Deployment: Panasonic installed 48 O-RAN compliant indoor small cells on a local 3.7 GHz license, integrated with the plant's MES via our edge gateway SDK. The rollout took 14 weeks including RF planning, installation, and parallel operation validation.
Outcome: AGV communication latency dropped from 45ms (WiFi 5) to 4ms (5G), eliminating interference-related stoppages. Overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) improved by 3.2 percentage points within the first quarter of operation.
Background: A water utility serving 1.2 million residents in Southeast Asia faced 28% non-revenue water loss due to undetected pipe leaks across 4,800 km of distribution network.
Deployment: 6,200 Panasonic NB-IoT pressure and flow sensors installed across the network, reporting to 32 LoRaWAN gateways. Data feeds into a cloud-based leak detection algorithm trained on 18 months of historical pressure data.
Outcome: Non-revenue water loss reduced from 28% to 17% within 14 months, saving an estimated $3.4 million annually. Sensor battery life exceeds 8 years on solar-assisted power with 99.7% uplink reliability.
Every Panasonic module is designed with sustainability at its core. Our ultra-low-power chipsets extend battery life by up to 10 years, reducing e-waste and maintenance cycles across global IoT deployments.
