Samsara Equipment Monitoring — Andrew Deagon

Samsara Equipment Monitoring

Samsara expanded their tracking offering beyond vehicles by introducing Equipment Monitoring. This allowed customers to track their equipment, optimize utilization, implement preventative maintanence and improve billing and job costing. To implement the equipment tracking product line, we needed to plug into a plethora of new machines, trailers and reefers, while also creating the most robust outdoor tracking device yet. The result was the AG series.

As HW manager, our team developed a robust RMA process to investigate all field failures from AG24. These learnings were directly implemented into the AG26 design and updated reliability test suite. We updated material selection and enclosure design.

Mounting corners are overmolded steel bushings, allowing the user to crank down on the screws while mounting to their asset.

The AG26 dramatically improved field reliability to meet establish yield goals.

Unpowered Assets

The Unpowered Asset Gateway is a wallet-sized tracker ideal for monitoring assets like intermodal containers, construction equipment, dumpsters, light towers and other mobile assets etc. As HW manager, I helped oversee production of the AG46, navigating supply chain issues, studying field failures and implementing critical improvements which allowed us to expand into new markets and expand the business.
