Daikin Texas Technology Park in Hockley, Texas Improves Communications

When Daikin completed construction in 2017 of their 4.5 million square foot manufacturing plant, they employed nearly 1,000 people almost instantly to build air-conditions systems. NWR designed and deployed a 4 channel Motorola TRBO system inside their gigantic manufacturing plant to help improve business operations. Today, Daikin has grown to nearly 4,000 employees on 3 shifts for manufacturing and transportation, so NWR worked with them to expand their four channel Motorola Capacity Plus system to eight channels to keep pace with the growth of the A/C manufacturing operations. The first radio system perfectly covered inside and outside of the facility, but growth at the facility was beginning to put stress on their system’s available talk paths for the growing number of employees on each shift. NWR’s upgrade from a DMR/Moto TRBO system to an eight channel DMR system allows them to have 16 conversations simultaneously on the radio system to efficiently run their business. The new upgrades include 4 additional 100-Watt Motorola SLR-8000 repeaters, antennas, and coax runs paired with 2 new dB Spectra 4 channel transmit combiners and eight channel receiver multi-coupler w/pre selector.
