Featured Customer Success
TRW Automotive
TRW Automotive is one of the world's leading suppliers of occupant restraint systems -- including Seat
belts -- and a pioneer in development and integration of seat belt,air bag, steering wheel and crash
sensor technologies. In May, 2001, TRW contracted with ToolWorx to create a unique lot tracking
system that would integrate with their existing SAP enterprise system. After an initial pilot in one
of their plants in Mexico, TRW decided to roll out the Lot Track system to all production lines in
all of their Mexican facilities.
From a hardware perspective, due to the need for future flexibility and expandability, TRW selected
the Intermec 700 series handheld computer running Pocket PC, a version of Windows CE. This presented
a unique challenge to ToolWorx as there was no terminal emulation software available that would run
under Pocket PC for our Lot Track system. As a result, along with the handheld terminals, we also
developed and delivered a VT Telnet client and some additional utilities to enhance the functionality
of the 700 terminal.
