Real-Time Location Control for Data Center Assembly

With infrared-based RTLS, nexonar verifies where assembly actions happen and helps prevent quality escapes by improving precision, reducing rework and supporting traceability.

Optimize your energy storage and data center assembly

Energy storage systems and data centers are critical infrastructures where reliability and uptime are essential. From energy storage cabinets to high‑density server racks, multiple mechanical, electrical and thermal components must be assembled with absolute precision.

As power density and system complexity increase, even small assembly errors can lead to safety risks, costly downtime or performance losses. Ensuring right‑first‑time assembly is therefore a key requirement in this segment.

Right‑first‑time data center assembly with nexonar

  • nexonar ensures that every assembly step in server racks and data center cabinets is performed at the right place and the right time.

  • The system digitally validates critical fastening and assembly actions to improve quality, reduce rework and enable full traceability.

  • nexonar guides operators from training to real‑time execution, supporting accurate assembly in confined spaces and across tall server racks.

  • Designed for data center environments, nexonar integrates seamlessly into existing production setups and scales with changing layouts while maintaining high precision.

Modern data centers are highly complex, always‑on ecosystems where precise assembly is critical to prevent downtime as AI and cloud demand grow.

Typical customer challenges

  • Island-based production

    Energy storage cabinets and server racks are assembled in island‑based workstations with multiple tools and screw types at one station. This non‑linear workflow increases the risk of missed steps or incorrect fastening, especially with product variants.

  • Confined workspace

    Fastening often takes place inside cabinets or racks with limited access, poor visibility, and inconsistent lighting. These conditions make reliable position tracking and operator guidance difficult.

  • Line-of-sight obstruction

    Cabinets and server racks often exceed two meters in height and require consistent accuracy from bottom to top. Conventional positioning systems often lose precision at higher levels, increasing the risk of assembly errors.

How can nexonar solve these challenges?

nexonar’s Real‑Time Location System ensures error‑free, fully traceable assembly in complex data center and energy storage environments.

  • Flexible solution for island‑based production

    nexonar supports flexible, decentralized production layouts. Compact cameras can be installed or repositioned quickly and support multiple tools at one station—ideal for island‑based assembly environments.

  • Reliable performance in confined spaces

    Infrared tracking ensures stable performance in tight cabinets and racks. Trackers can be mounted flexibly on the tool, and the system remains accurate as long as one camera detects one tracker—even in poor lighting conditions.

  • Height of the cabinet

    nexonar delivers consistent accuracy from bottom to top of tall cabinets and server racks. A large field of view and long working distance ensure precise tracking over height, with easy scalability using additional cameras.

Your questions about nexonar in data center assembly answered

What is a Real‑Time Location System (RTLS) for data center assembly?

 

A Real‑Time Location System (RTLS) is a technology that tracks the position of tools and assembly actions in real time. In data center assembly, RTLS helps ensure that every fastening and assembly step is performed at the correct location inside server racks and cabinets.

How does nexonar help prevent assembly errors in data centers?

 

nexonar prevents assembly errors by tracking tool position in real time and digitally validating each assembly step. This helps avoid missing screws, incorrect tightening sequences, and rework during the assembly of server racks and energy storage cabinets.

Why is RTLS important for assembling server racks and data center cabinets?

 

Server racks and data center cabinets are assembled in confined spaces and often across the full cabinet height. RTLS is important because it ensures consistent positioning accuracy and reliable verification of assembly steps, even in complex and hard‑to‑access areas.

What assembly challenges are typical in data center environments?

 

Typical challenges include island‑based production, limited access inside cabinets, variable lighting conditions, and high precision requirements across tall racks. These factors increase the risk of assembly errors without reliable position tracking and guidance.

How does nexonar ensure right‑first‑time assembly in data centers?

 

nexonar ensures right‑first‑time assembly by guiding operators step by step and verifying that each action is completed in the correct position. This digital validation helps ensure that all critical steps are completed correctly before moving to the next operation.

Can nexonar provide full traceability for data center assembly processes?

 

Yes. nexonar digitally records where and when each assembly action is performed. This creates a complete traceability record for server rack and cabinet assembly, supporting quality documentation and process transparency.

How does nexonar perform in confined data center assembly spaces?

 

nexonar is designed for complex and confined environments. Its infrared‑based RTLS provides reliable position tracking even inside cabinets, across varying heights, and in environments where conventional positioning solutions struggle.

Which data center applications benefit most from nexonar RTLS?

 

nexonar is especially suited for server rack assembly, energy storage cabinet assembly, and other data center applications where precision, error prevention, and process traceability are critical to avoid downtime and quality issues.
