RFID Technology Meets 100% Product Traceability

In the automated process to manually track or provide traceability of parts and materials in the process in the efficiency, accuracy and production site environment is not feasible, RFID and Real-Time Locating Systems (RTLS) technology can meet The requirements for automatic identification, tracking and trace of objects in the process.

Developers of RFID reader systems and applications must understand the target user's application scenario, the operating environment, and the physical characteristics and composition of the object to be tracked. Almost all manufacturing environments use RFID technology, and as users find ways to effectively use these identification technologies, their adoption rate will increase.

Industrial identification and positioning has become a key technology to promote the digitization of manufacturing. By installing an RFID tag on the object, the manufacturer can identify, track, and collect data from the object at the production site. Considering cost, profit and time, RFID is increasingly used in WIP. The beverage, food, and pharmaceutical industries use UHF RFID reader to automatically track the process of containers, raw materials, disinfection and cleaning processes.


Automotive manufacturers and suppliers at all levels also use RFID extensively in manufacturing and assembly. The smart machinery industry uses RFID to identify and track multiple products on a single assembly line to identify ongoing processes for a particular product. The aerospace industry uses RFID instead of manual tracking of documents to meet higher levels of manufacturing traceability. Higher-end consumer electronics are also beginning to use RFID in manufacturing and assembly processes.

Public Hospital in Zhejiang Accelerates the Upgrade of RFID Material Management Solutions

A few days ago, the General Office of the Zhejiang Provincial Government released the "Implementation Plan for Promoting the High-Quality Development of Public Hospitals in Zhejiang Province", which clearly stated that "the operation mode has shifted from extensive management to refined management" and "doing reasonable use of medicines, monitoring of medical consumables and medical core data”, which put forward new requirements for the management mode of consumables in public hospitals. In 2019, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University College of Medicine introduced the SPD model for hospital ma terial management . The "smart update" was carried out on the previous SPD model. The hospital fully combined the latest technological means such as the Internet of Things, robots, artificial intelligence, big data, and image recognition to create a new "IF-SPD" model. The overall construction of "IF-SPD" inc...

RFID Technology Optimizes Self-service in Restaurants

Smokin' Oak Wood-Fired Pizza & Taproom is a growing franchise that combines a pizzeria with a self-serve bar wall, offering fast casual dining across the United States. The company operates five stores and has plans to expand as many as 75 stores over the next few years. The company was originally designed to offer the old-fashioned way of ordering food—with the help of a cashier or bartender at a traditional bar. But its Omaha store offers a self-serve pouring booth powered by RFID technology. The company's CEO, Matt Mongoven, said the model will be replicated in all subsequent stores. The self-service system in this self-service pouring booth utilizes RFID self-pouring t echnology . Pizza and self-service tap facilities are under one roof. When customers arrive, the cashier asks if they would like to use the self-filling bar wall. If they answer "yes", the cashier scans their license and scans the RFID wristband with the restaurant's logo, ...

Wal-Mart Will Expand RFID Applications To Improve Its Inventory Accuracy

  It is reported that Wal-Mart's headquarters has notified suppliers to expand its   RFID e-tags   to some new product categories. As of September, these newly expanded products will carry   R FID e-tags   on Walmart store shelves. The new areas of expansion include the following: 1. Consumer Electronics (such as TV, xbox) 2.
