Transport monitoring with ASPION data loggers - cost-effective and wireless

More transparency in the supply chain - transport monitoring with ASPION data loggers

Sensors for shock, temperature and humidity provide more transparency, safety and quality control

When shipping goods and merchandise, a falling crate can quickly have costly consequences. Unintentional shocks or vibrations too often lead to damage to the goods being transported. Good if you have taken out transport insurance in such cases. However, this only applies if the damage incurred can be proven accordingly.

The ASPION G-Log shock sensor makes this complete and safe recording of transport events possible. The cost-effective data logger records discreetly and permanently critical transport events - from falls to vibrations to noticeable temperature or humidity fluctuations.

Transport monitoring with ASPION data loggers: variants for flexible use

The data loggers are available in the standard version ASPION G-Log and in the new generation ASPION G-Log 2 with additional humidity sensor and Bluetooth. All ASPION G-Log data loggers can be discreetly and unobtrusively attached to all goods and merchandise thanks to their ultra-compact, small housing. New is the ASPION G-Log 2 with shock and climate data recording such as temperature and relative humidity, NFC and Bluetooth communication as well as a replaceable battery. The ASPION G-Log 2 Waterproof is also dust and waterproof to IP65/67 and effortlessly withstands harsh environmental conditions during any type of transport monitoring.

How it works

The handling of the shock sensors is designed for maximum user-friendliness. The sensors are initialized with individual threshold values and - if required - activated time-controlled before they are attached to the transported goods. During transport, all events outside the tolerance range are recorded. The stored data can be read out wirelessly via Smartphone App at any time and sent by e-mail for evaluation. Alternatively, the sensor can be read out using the included PC software with USB card reader and then be analyzed.

Cloud based service ASPION G-Log Premium

With the software service G-Log Premium, a function extension for the G-Log data loggers is now available. The cloud-based software service enables the fully automated transmission of recorded events as well as the current GPS position of the transported goods and merchandise to a cloud memory using a smartphone app. In the cloud, the data is processed additively and is available for further analyses and for tracking transport sections. Due to the almost unlimited storage space in the cloud, even extensive transport data can be processed and evaluated without additional costs for hardware and infrastructure.

Expressive user-friendliness for satisfied customers

The basis for the development of shock sensors and software services is always the pronounced user-friendliness. The sensors can be operated safely even by untrained persons after a short briefing and convince by their high, flexible and individual adaptability to all needs in industry and transportation.

After extensive testing, we recently started using the Aspion G-Log 2 sensor to monitor the global transport of our circuit breakers. The data logger has the ability to select the transport class 2M4 to 2M6 according to IEC 60721-3-2 Ed. 3.0 standard. If thresholds within a transport class are exceeded, these events are recorded and marked in red. This has the great advantage that it can be quickly recognized whether the standard has been complied with or not.

"The problem with our instrument transformers is that damage that occurs during transport is not immediately apparent. For us it is more than important to know exactly when a critical event occurred. Both the measurement data from our laboratory and the price for the G-Log sensor from ASPION convinced us quite quickly."

Manuel Hollet, Shipping Manager
Trench Germany GmbH

"We use the shock sensors to monitor the transport of our high-quality pharmaceutical packaging machines and to track transport or loading damage. The shock sensors have proven themselves right from the start and provide us with very good service in the argumentation of damage to insurance companies or customers."

Rolf Geiger, Head of Export & Shipping
Uhlmann Pac-Systeme GmbH & Co. KG

"For the monitoring of a machine transport to Russia we successfully used the ASPION shock sensors. With the Smartphone App our technician was able to read the data at the destination and make an initial diagnosis. Due to its simple handling and robustness, we will continue to expand the system."

Helmut Sobotta, Head of Quality & Martin Ruess, Head of Shipping
Gebr. Heller Maschinenfabrik GmbH, Nürtingen

"We import photovoltaic panels from Asia. Our experience with transport damage and the unpleasant disputes have led us to organise the complete transport ourselves. The G-Log 2 shock and climate data loggers from Aspion were used from the very beginning. The high quality and level of detail of the recorded data has significantly strengthened our negotiating position with the insurance companies. The days are over when transport parties blamed each other."

Alexander Marxreiter, Managing Director
pv-sos GmbH

"For over 25 years, we have been supplying customers with our machines and systems, which are characterised by quality, availability and delivery speed. With the use of the small and compact ASPION G-Log 2, we track our complete solutions in terms of shock, humidity and temperature.This enables us to detect damaging environmental conditions at an early stage. In this way, we rule out possible malfunctions."

Enrico Dornack, Purchasing Department
ruhlamat GmbH

"In the field of heavy goods packaging as well as for products that are very sensitive to packaging, we rely on complete documentation of the loads during the logistics chain. Here we appreciate the ASPION data logger's simple and individual adjustability as well as the multitude of readout options. Especially the mobile readout via Smartphone provides for enormous transparency and inspires our customers from the special machine construction again and again anew."
