RFID drives the evolution of smart manufacturing for automotive rearview mirrors

In the wave of manufacturing industry's transformation to intelligence and digitalization, the automation and informationization of production processes have become an inevitable trend in the development of the industry. In the traditional production model, data recording and transmission of each production link often rely on manual operation, which is not only inefficient, but also prone to data delays and loss. Chenkong Intelligent provides solutions for a car rearview mirror manufacturer in Guangdong. After the introduction of RFID technology, when the product flows between various stations, the RFID tag can quickly interact with the production equipment for data. The equipment can automatically obtain the relevant data of the product and perform corresponding operations without waiting for manual input instructions or information transmission.

The non-contact data reading and writing characteristics of RFID technology have brought great convenience to the management of rearview mirror production data. On the production line, each rearview mirror carrier is equipped with an RFID tag. From the time the product enters the first station to scan the code for loading, the RFID tag becomes the "digital ID Card" of the product. In the darkroom test, after the equipment reads the product information in the RFID tag, it can automatically adjust the test parameters to achieve fast switching tests of different models of rearview mirrors, greatly shortening the production cycle. When the fifth station is unloading and sorting out, the process of reading the RFID tag content and outputting the QR code to be affixed to the rearview mirror is also completed in one go, making the entire production process smoother and more efficient, effectively reducing the product's residence time on the production line and increasing the production capacity of the production line. This non-contact data writing method does not require manual intervention, avoids errors that may be caused by manual data recording, and greatly improves the accuracy and completeness of the data.

RFID technology also provides a strong guarantee for the quality control of rearview mirrors. Since the test data of each rearview mirror is fully recorded in the RFID tag and output in the QR code by reading the RFID tag data, before the product leaves the factory, through a comprehensive analysis of the RFID tag data in the QR code, it can quickly and accurately determine whether the product meets the quality standards. Once a quality problem is found, the production link and specific equipment where the problem occurs can be accurately locked by tracing the data, so that the company can take timely measures to improve and avoid similar problems from happening again. At the same time, these detailed quality data can also provide an important basis for the company's product research and development and process optimization, helping the company to continuously improve product quality and enhance market competitiveness.

In addition, RFID technology has good environmental adaptability and data security. In complex environments such as darkrooms in rearview mirror production, traditional barcode and other recognition technologies may fail to recognize due to insufficient light, surface wear and other reasons, while RFID tags can work stably in harsh environments to ensure reliable reading and writing of data. In addition, RFID technology uses advanced encryption algorithms to encrypt the data Stored in the tag, effectively preventing the data from being illegally read and tampered with, and ensuring the security of the company's production data.
