RFID readers help to innovate and upgrade pallet transport lines

Problems in the use of pallet transportation lines in a factory in Hubei: ■ Pallets are affected by information entry time and other issues on the transportation line, resulting in low efficiency; ■ The barcodes originally attached to the pallets are easily stained and often need to be updated and replaced, resulting in longer time for information entry, warehousing and other steps;

Solution 1. Use RFID tags with long reading distance. The RFID tags are fixed on the legs in the middle of the pallet, and one is fixed on each side of the pallet. The tags can contain detailed information such as the pallet number, the quantity of goods, and the sorting area. Then, they are transported along the predetermined route through the automated transportation track. After arriving at the designated location where the RFID Reader is installed, they wait for the next operation.

2. The goods are assembled into a single transportation unit on a standard pallet according to certain requirements, and then transported along the predetermined route through the automated transportation track. When they arrive at the designated location where the RFID reader is installed, they are automatically loaded, unloaded, shipped and Stored. The pallet transportation line runs faster, saving time and effort, reducing the workload of personnel, improving loading and unloading efficiency, and completing the turnover of goods efficiently and conveniently. 

3. Readers and writers are also installed on the stacker. The stacker runs back and forth in the channel of the stereoscopic warehouse. After the RFID reader identifies the pallet with goods at the designated position, the system collects data and issues instructions to store the pallet with goods in the cargo compartment of the shelf. When it needs to be taken out, the label on the pallet can be automatically identified to obtain relevant information, reduce manual verification time, and improve efficiency.
