How Passive RFID Technology Improves Asset Management Efficiency

For a long time, the data collection of traditional Asset MANAGEMENT is often wrong, the asset code is easy to wear out, the circulation management has no tracking, and the regular inventory is manual, which leads to the distortion of asset information and low management efficiency. To improve the efficiency of asset utilization, the most important thing is to efficiently identify and track assets. When using them, there is no need to search for replacements, so as to optimize the use of assets and reduce operating costs.

Why adopt passive RFID technology?

The main difference between active and passive RFID is: whether the RFID electronic tag has a battery

Because no batteries are used, the advantages of passive RFID tags are lower cost, no built-in batteries, and no maintenance, so they can be used for a lifetime. The pricing of passive RFID tags can be as low as one yuan in large quantities, even those powerful and reinforced tags, while the most basic market price of active RFID tags is usually more than 30 yuan.

In order for a passive RFID solution to work, the passive RFID tag must draw power from a powered UHF RFID Reader to send location data back to the reader. The reader then sends the tag data to the customer's database or the cloud, where it is Stored. Most of the target customers of passive RFID tags are those who need highly reliable, reinforced and long-lasting RFID tags; in addition to their obvious advantages in cost, they can be used in a wide range of applications, including industry, construction, and vehicle management. , Retail, Asset Management, warehouse Management, Hospitals, Government/Military, etc.

How does RFID technology work?

After the passive RFID electronic tag enters the antenna magnetic field, if it receives a special radio frequency signal from the reader, it can send out the product information (passive tag) stored in the chip by virtue of the energy obtained by the induced current, or actively send a certain A frequency signal (active tag), the reader reads and decodes the information, and sends it to the central information system for relevant data processing.

When using RFID to manage materials or fixed assets, it is necessary to install RFID electronic tags on the items, and install RFID reading and writing equipment (integrated readers, UHF access doors, etc.) in management places (such as entrances and exits, warehouses, etc.) ), combined with local area network, Internet, security alarm system and cloud data center to monitor the use and flow of assets in real time, and complete real-time information update and real-time query. The RFID asset management system is generally composed of four parts: the acquisition layer, the transmission layer, the execution performance layer, and the monitoring layer. It is equipped with technologies such as network, positioning, and database to realize the whole life cycle of asset storage, inventory, storage, scrapping, and security. manage.

The advantages of using RFID technology for asset management include:

1. RFID reading and writing equipment uses wireless technology to identify electromagnetic fields, with fast speed, low error rate, and on-site interference factors can be minimized.

2. RFID electronic tags and UHF handheld terminals have unified data format and technical standards, and the data connection is accurate, without the need for additional development of interfaces and management systems.

3. Through the establishment of a real-time monitoring platform for data center assets, combined with cloud technology, it can make full use of tracking information for decision support, real-time query, tracking, and early warning of asset usage and flow conditions, greatly optimize asset utilization, and realize asset life cycles. refined management.

At present, passive RFID technology is bringing about a huge change in the refined management of assets. With the advantages of long distance identification, non-damage, and large capacity, it can effectively improve management efficiency, simplify complicated work processes, improve asset transparency, and realize asset management. Real-time synchronous interaction of physical objects and system information. As the first batch of high-tech enterprises in the RFID field, IFAST has made achievements in asset management, warehousing and logistics, smart retail, vehicle management, smart grid and other fields, and committed to providing customers with overall solutions from product development to front-end applications.
