RFID tags enable contactless reading of information without the need for direct visual inspection as with barcodes. Eliminates the need for workers to pick up items to scan barcodes directly, saving time and improving efficiency.
We have innovative ways of utilizing RFID to solve problems and improve performance.
RFID is increasingly being used in logistics, distribution and manufacturing.
In addition to reducing workload and improving efficiency, data is collected in real-time
for greater optimization of logistics operations.
RFID tags enable contactless reading of information without the need for direct visual inspection as with barcodes. Eliminates the need for workers to pick up items to scan barcodes directly, saving time and improving efficiency.
With RFID, multiple tags can be read simultaneously. Data on a large quantity of items can be collected in a very short time, contributing to significant improvements in inventory control and efficiency.
Upon receiving of goods, RFID labels with lot and other data are applied. Inventory control data includes stock date, best before date, expiration date, manufacturing date, supplier, lot, and substitutes. When the picking line is replenished, cut-off dates and other parameters are set based on the RFID data on the inventory items. Furthermore, RFID data is read so all lot and other inventory data is linked to the picking results and updated in real-time throughout the process for superior traceability.
We developed an RFID logistics asset management system using return RFID gates, shipping sorter RFID gates, and FRFID handheld terminals by installing passive RFID tags (EPC C1G2 tags) on collapsible delivery totes and carts. With the introduction of an asset management process using RFID, Autobacs Seven was able to reduce loss of collapsible totes and reallocate totes to avoid the uneven distribution of totes at certain stores. The RFID asset management system allowed the company to significantly reduce the cost of lost totes. Further, they were better able to distribute and reuse assets more wisely for a significant reduction in labor cost all while improving delivery times. With RFID, all collapsible totes and carts are tracked individually so operators have traceability to usage, cleaning, and repairs.

The RFID tunnel gate system is a RFID tag reading system that allows for multiple RFID tags in a cardboard box, for example, to be captured automatically. As the container or box on a conveyor moves through an RFID-enabled antenna gate, the RFID tags are read. This type of RFID system significantly improves the speed and accuracy of outgoing inspections which previously had to be checked one by one. The system also allows for optional branching of NG material to a reject collection area and automatic issuance of packing list/shipping invoices.
