As vehicles incorporate more new technologies and highly sophisticated components, it has become increasingly complicated and expensive to ship these parts. That's why many automotive manufacturers are turning to the Internet of Things, or IoT, to reduce risk and improve efficiency across the supply chain.

In this recent op ed with Automotive Logistics, Tive CEO Krenar Komoni and Tive customer Agron Galimuna, executive managing director at Tri-Wall Austria Packaging Systems, discuss the impact of IoT on the automotive supply chain. Agron and Komoni shed light on the importance of these new technologies, and how they enable supply chain teams to maintain visibility over their in-transit goods.

Highlighting the important of IoT solutions for the automotive industry, Agron and Krenar suggest that "IoT technology promises to make a big impact in the near future on how automotive manufacturers maintain the quality of their products throughout the supply chain." With multi-sensor tracking devices attached to every shipment, the manufacturer can ensure that they always know where their goods are, and how they're doing. More importantly, real-time location and condition-based alerts make it possible for manufacturers to get ahead of potential issues, proactively responding as soon as delays or damages occur (instead of waiting until delivery to find out that something has gone wrong).

In this article, Agron and Krenar share a trial in which a tracker was used to measure the impact of rough terrain on a fragile car part. They describe how the IoT tracker quickly transmitted a signal that showed up on the computer as soon as impacts occurred, making it easy to track the progress of the part across the facility.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

  • dos
  • tres

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
