Application of RFID intelligent inventory equipments

For many companies, improving inventory visibility and speeding up production schedules are key requirements for their production plans. The core of inventory management is the management of the goods themselves, which is the management of the quantity and related attributes of the goods. The purpose is to serve sales and purchases, ensure a reasonable amount of inventory, and handle inventory ledgers and in-out journals. The form basically covers all kinds of warehouse in and out operations, but it cannot integrate various resources of the warehouse, nor can it optimize the efficiency of a large number of operations in warehousing and distribution.

The so-called RFID intelligent inventory is to use RFID identification technology to check the quantity and type of items in the warehouse, so as to accurately grasp the inventory quantity. Automated data collection through RFID intelligent inventory vehicles ensures the speed and accuracy of data input in each link of warehouse management, ensures that enterprises can grasp the real data of inventory in a timely and accurate manner, and realizes efficient goods search and real-time inventory inventory, which is conducive to improving The work efficiency of warehouse management, get rid of the time-consuming and laborious traditional warehouse management, reasonably maintain and control the enterprise's inventory, so that the enterprise can operate with high efficiency.

RFID Smart Retail Inventory Vehicle

Recently, a company in the United States provided an RFID smart retail inventory cart for an online retailer. This RFID Smart Retail Inventory Cart can accommodate laptops, UHF RFID Readers, printers and RFID Antennas, and it can accommodate four RFID antennas on telescopic poles. RFID readers can emit energy up, down, and from the side, but to ensure that the effective read area is contained, users can manage the read range with the help of filters and gain adjustments.

In a row of 10 4-foot-deep pallets, users can simply push the trolley in the aisle at normal walking speed, and the trolley will simultaneously read the RFID tags in all the pallets. The RFID antenna can move up and down on a telescoping pole up to 10 feet, and it also comes with an adjustable four-channel RFID reader.

Intelligent inventory of RFID books and archives

RFID books and archives intelligent inventory vehicle is to quickly scan the electronic tags through the RFID reader and the handheld antenna, and cooperate with the corresponding software to complete the inventory of books/Files, along the shelf, on the shelf, query, statistics, etc., through the RFID on the bookshelf The scanning of circulation materials with electronic tags can help arranging shelves, finding and counting specific circulation materials, etc., and exerting efficiency when Library staff look for lost materials and inventory books.

Decathlon's RFID intelligent inventory robot

The RFID intelligent inventory robot is mainly used in physical shopping malls, and realizes automatic inventory of all categories of products by carrying RFID technology and artificial intelligence. The height of the robot is about 163cm, the weight is 30kg, the walking speed is 0.45 m/s, the average scanning time is 2 hours, and the RFID reading range is 4 meters. During the walking process, the inventory, out-of-stock management and delivery are completed through RFID, vision + perception technology. Bit optimization eliminates the need for employees to read tags with handheld RFID readers, and at the same time realizes comprehensive inventory management more intelligently.

During the working process of the RFID intelligent inventory robot, if it passes through a crowded area, the sensor will identify it in time and guide it to detour, and wait for the personnel to leave before going to the area for inspection. The traditional manual inventory method can handle an average of 200 pieces of goods per hour. Using RFID intelligent inventory robots can check 15,000-30,000 kinds of products per hour, and can check 3 times a day. The efficiency of warehouse inventory has been greatly improved, and a small shopping mall can be completed in 2 minutes. Complete the entire shelf inventory with an accuracy rate of over 97%. According to data, the use of RFID technology can increase the inventory accuracy rate from the industry average of 65% to 95%. RFID technology can achieve accurate inventory and help consumers find the goods they need, so more goods can be sold at full price instead of waiting for discounts, which increases profits and reduces product losses.

What are the advantages of RFID smart inventory?

1. Automatic warehouse entry and exit

The stable reading and writing distance of the handheld reader can reach 2-5 meters, and the reading and writing distance of the Honglu fixed reader can reach more than 15 meters. It effectively solves the problem that barcodes must be scanned manually close to the barcode in the past, realizes automatic warehouse entry and exit, and greatly improves warehousing labor costs and forklift use efficiency.

2. Read multiple tags at the same time

The UHF RFID reader can instantly read the RFID tag information. Using RFID anti-collision technology and Honglu fixed reader, it can instantly read dozens of hundreds of tags, greatly improving scanning efficiency and reducing labor costs. .

3. No barrier recognition

RFID technology can penetrate non-metallic and non-liquid materials such as paper, wood and plastic for penetrating communication without the need for light sources. Provide a better scanning experience, which can quickly tally, find goods, and take inventory.

4. Large data capacity

The capacity of a one-dimensional barcode is 50 Bytes, the maximum capacity of a two-dimensional barcode can Store 2 to 3000 characters, and the maximum capacity of an RFID electronic tag is several MegaBytes.

5. Long service life, adapt to harsh environment

The radio communication method of RFID enables it to be used in highly polluted environments such as dust and oil pollution and radioactive environments, and has a lifespan of more than 10 years (100,000 reads and writes); the carrier label paper of traditional barcodes is easily polluted. In addition, because the barcode is attached to the plastic bag or the outer carton, it is particularly vulnerable to damage; the RFID tag stores the data in the chip, so it can be free from contamination, and the RFID has strong anti-pollution ability and durability.

6. Reuse

The content of the RFID label can be changed, and the direct benefit is that the RFID electronic label can be reused, getting rid of the situation that the traditional barcode label can only be used once, which can effectively reduce the cost of enterprise consumables (enterprises using the barcode storage system need to purchase a large number of labels and ribbons every year. ).

7. High security

RFID electronic tags can not only be embedded or attached to products of different shapes and types, but also can set password protection for the reading and writing of tag data, which has higher security. Since RFID carries electronic information, its data content can be protected by passwords, so that its content is not easy to be forged and fabricated, and its security is higher.

8. Miniaturized volume and diversified shapes

RFID does not need to match the fixed size and printing quality of paper for reading accuracy, and is more suitable for the development of miniaturization and various forms, so that it can be easily embedded or attached to products of different shapes and types.

Following the industry trend, the diversity of intelligent inventory equipment based on RFID technology is also becoming more and more diverse. The advancement of technology will not stop, and more RFID scene applications will be derived in the future.
