Asset Management

With the Sandgrain Solution an immutable ID remains with the part/equipment for its entire lifetime. Therefore, the system owner, OEM, supplier and all actors in the equipment supply chain have an overview of all assets that have been produced, are in use, or even (after end-of-life) have ever been used.

As such the SandGrain token is equivalent to a bar-code or QR-code, but without the risk of it being removed or inaccessible. It shows the status of a part at all times, whether active in a machine, in repair, storage or being reused/refurbished.

By means of the hardware token on the asset its status can at all times be verified in the SandGrain cloud platform. The authentication functionality will ensure detection of illegal copies or other anomalies. The OEM can at all time check the actual configuration (HW & FW) of the asset.
