Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology is becoming a necessary scanning method for retailers and manufacturers.
In addition to retailers driving the use of RFID, scaling up dynamic data collection for production can create a bottom line across your supply chain - turning your RFID investment into a sustainable competitive advantage.
◆ Track and trace products accurately by collecting product IDs, time stamps, tag numbers for each stage of production, and historical information about the tag numbers that enter the supply chain.
Improve asset utilization by tracking reusable assets and clarifying their positioning, use and maintenance arrangements.
◆ Improve quality control by marking the raw materials, the work in progress and the stock of finished products.
Improve MRO operations by providing accurate, timely, and detailed information for CMMS applications.
◆ Reduce waste and increase production line performance by controlling the operation of production lines based on the label information.
RFID is not a simple plug-and-play technology, choosing an incremental investment strategy is not easy: you have several options to consider when implementing a scalable, strategic approach. Rockwell Automation can help you create an RFID business case and develop your pilot application for a comprehensive manufacturing process, taking into account your existing investments in hardware, software, and information management systems.
