RFID technology strengthens safety management of power tools

Because electricity is related to the national economy and people's livelihood, the safe and normal operation of the power grid is crucial. The power supply department has strict regulations on the purchase, use, inspection and maintenance of power equipment and Tools. Electrical power tools are the basic guarantee for the safety of various operation and inspection work. Various instruments are the basic guarantee for accurate equipment operating parameters and fault diagnosis. To ensure the safe use of power safety tools, RFID technology will be used for intelligent management and control. RFID electronic tags bind identity information to tools. RFID technology realizes automation and paperless data collection, continuously improves the completeness and effectiveness of power equipment and tool management, and RFID technology strengthens the safety management of power tools.

Power grid enterprises have formulated standardized management requirements for work tools, such as keeping records every time a tool is used, weekly inspection of tool usage records, weekly tool inventory, monthly inspections, quarterly inspections, annual inspections, periodic tests, etc. , its purpose is to ensure that the tools are in good condition, safe and reliable during use. RFID technology is used in the Asset MANAGEMENT system of the power industry to replace the traditional paper test certificate. Establish standardized management procedures for insulating tools and equipment, load specific work processes and requirements into the database through the system, and unify the management of insulating tools and tools in each branch according to regulatory requirements, which will help further standardize the safety management of insulating tools and ensure inspection , test time and quality, improve employee work efficiency and enhance safety management effects.

Tool purchase and storage: First, before the tools are put into storage, electronic tags should be pasted or hung on the tools, and basic information such as the tool's product name, model, specification, origin, brand name, and packaging should be entered, and the tool categories should be divided, entered and classified. After completion, place the tools in the corresponding locations in the warehouse and record the locations.

Tool lending: Use the RFID handheld terminal to read the RFID information of the tools to be loaned, save the loan time, borrowing department and personnel, borrowing purpose and other relevant information in the data collector, and upload it through batch processing or wireless means to the system.

Tool return: Use the RFID handheld terminal to read the information in the tool tag and check it with the information retained when lending it out. After confirming that it is correct, place the tool in the corresponding location in the warehouse, and the return procedure is completed.

Calibration of measuring tools: According to relevant national regulations, measuring tools must be calibrated regularly by designated professional testing departments. After verification, the verification information is written into the system.

Tool scrapping: When the tool reaches the specified service life or becomes damaged and cannot be used anymore, it must be scrapped. After reading the RFID electronic tag information of the equipment through the RFID handheld terminal, the equipment is scrapped after the reason for scrapping, the person in charge, the approver and other relevant information are entered into the system. The equipment information after scrapping will be retained in the scrapping tool File information for query.

Tool inventory: Enter the inventory state, use the RFID handheld device to collect the tool tags on the tool rack in sequence, enter them, and upload them to the backend. Through the RFID electronic tags installed on the tools, the quantity of each tool can be collected, and the backend system Then complete the inventory of warehouse tools and generate reports based on the collected quantity data.

Backend system management: Through the RFID electronic tags installed on the tools, the storage, loan, return, inventory, transfer and other information of each tool can be collected, entered and uploaded to the backend. The background system then completes the management of the tool warehouse based on the collected data information. Managers can conduct inquiries and statistics as needed and generate reports.

The RFID handheld terminal is portable, flexible and easy to use, and has become an important helper for mobile inventory. It can quickly collect and inventory the data of tool RFID electronic tags. RFID electronic tags can be read and written and have a large storage capacity to bind the identities of power tools. Deploy and install RFID identification reading and writing equipment in rooms according to the characteristics of RFID technology to carry out entry and exit, and warehouse inventory collection.

The core of the management of tools and equipment in the power warehouse is to optimize user experience requirements, improve the management level of tools and equipment in the power warehouse, reduce management and control costs, and enable real-time monitoring of the status of tools in the warehouse without missing or misreading. The use of RFID electronic tags replaces the manual pasting of test certificates in the past, and can automatically collect data, greatly saving labor costs and improving work efficiency.
