Two-way radios for manufacturing plants that link production, materials, and maintenance.
Plant ops, maintenance, materials, and shipping need to talk across a 200,000-square-foot floor — over machine noise, between mezzanines, and into the loading dock.
Nationwide cellularNo FCC license72-hour shipping
A typical day on a manufacturing site.
7am shift change. The outgoing supervisor briefs the incoming on a CNC down for tooling. Materials is forklifting pallets to staging. Maintenance is responding to a hydraulic line on the secondary press. Shipping is pulling for an afternoon trailer. QA is sampling mid-run. Across an open floor with mezzanines, indoor cranes, and loading docks at four corners, the only way everyone hears the same line-down call is if every radio is on the same channel — and the only way that works is if the radios actually reach.
How POC LTE solves it.
- Cellular push-to-talk works across the plant, mezzanines, and exterior yards.
- Rugged speaker mics that cut through machine noise and hearing-protection earplugs.
- Separate channels for production, materials, maintenance, shipping, and QA.
- AES-256 encrypted talk groups keep proprietary process data off open spectrum.
- Pre-programmed line-down channel monitored by every radio in the fleet.
Roles we equip.
The radios are sized and programmed for who actually uses them. A front desk gets a different setup than a banquet captain or a security supervisor.
Plant manager
Coordinate shift handoffs, escalate from production to engineering.
Shift supervisor
Run a shift, escalate line-down events to maintenance and management.
Materials handler
Stage pallets, coordinate forklift moves with the floor team.
Maintenance lead
Respond to line-down calls across multiple machines simultaneously.
Shipping supervisor
Pull outbound loads, sync trailer arrivals with dock door availability.
QA inspector
Pull samples mid-run, escalate holds to production and shipping.
Line operator
Call for materials, flag QA issues, escalate to shift supervisor.
On-call engineer
Take after-hours line-down calls from anywhere on or off site.
POC LTE vs UHF/VHF for manufacturing.
