RFID is gradually beginning to be applied to the discrete manufacturing industry

With the rapid development of the economy, the development of the manufacturing industry has been driven, and the development of unmanned, intelligent, and automated production lines has attracted a lot of attention. RFID technology enables large-scale and batch production, solving the urgent need for fast and high-quality production. Fully automatic production line production realizes automated data management, information management, and real-time monitoring and management. RFID production line assembly line applications mainly use RFID Reader devices installed at production line stations or suitable locations to read RFID electronic tags installed on pallets or products for data collection, reading, and control to complete a series of production Situation management.

RFID is gradually beginning to be applied to the discrete manufacturing industry. Compared with the currently widely used barcode technology, RFID electronic tags can be non-contact, wireless and long-distance collection, with strong penetration, high-speed movement, and storage of more data. , can be used in harsh environments and many other advantages. The goal of production line visualization is to enable corporate management to discover the work-in-progress production and production line operating status in real time. The solution mainly consists of an assembly line, an RFID data collection system, a work-in-progress and a Library-borrowing-machine-touch-query-intelligent-terminal-all-in-one-machine.html target='_blank'>workstation. The work-in-process moves on the assembly line. After arriving at the workstation, it is removed by workers for assembly of spare parts. After completion, it is put back into the assembly line until all is completed. In the process, the RFID data collection system mainly includes RFID readers and writers, and each product in process is bound to an RFID electronic tag.

RFID production and intelligent manufacturing usher in new opportunities

To give full play to the technical advantages of RFID and use RFID technology in the production line is not to completely build a new RFID-based production management system, but to integrate RFID information with the existing barcode-based production management system to organically integrate RFID applications. Incorporate into the overall enterprise information architecture. RFID, barcodes, and sensors are used to collect real-time data on the production line, and the read data is transmitted to the upper device (controller, computer) through the network (wired or wireless). To manage loose sensors requires a new management mechanism that can automatically discover and organize the network, deploy RFID readers and writers, and establish reader network connections to solve the planning, optimization and control problems of the reader network. The RFID electronic tags on the items, combined with the RFID readers of Liancheng Network, mean that every identification means the tracking of the items.

Not only that, the RFID system can also provide a variety of applications and services, including: production line status monitoring, employee behavior monitoring, production management, quality management and tracking, material management, job scheduling, on-site operation guidance, and real-time uploading of production data. The entire network architecture must provide information tracking functions. All product information and information on each flow point can be listed based on the product identification code. In order to ensure that the tracking information is complete and the information chain can be queried in real time, the information chain backup function is provided, so that the tracking information can be found even if there is a slight interruption.

RFID is perfectly integrated with existing manufacturing information systems such as ERP, CRM, etc. to establish a more powerful information chain as the basis for intelligent manufacturing, allowing RFID technology to deliver accurate automated data collection at an accurate time, thereby improving Assets utilization, enhance productivity, conduct a variety of online measurements, and support quality control. For enterprises with strong modern, diversified and high-demand enterprise management awareness, RFID technology will bring huge benefits.
