RFID Technology Promotes Visual Management of Production Line
In the past, as an important product source in traditional manufacturing enterprises, the production data information is particularly important. Barcode technology has been unable to meet the existing diversified production needs. The rapid rise of RFID technology has been promoted and used. It can provide long-distance multi-label batch reading and writing, read and write and store a large amount of data in high-speed mobile state. It is used in harsh environments. At present, RFID technology has been applied to many application scenarios. With the application of RFID technology in the production and manufacturing industry, the completion of the products in production and the operation of each station can be judged by connecting the PC with the server. The production and operation mode of traditional enterprises has changed greatly. RFID technology promotes the visual management of production lines.
RFID technology is applied in the production line, transfer and temporary storage warehouse to write the product information into the label and bind it with the product. Readers and writers are installed at the production line station and at the entrance and exit of the warehouse. The system automatically reads the data and geographic location information in the label, shares the data with the IT system, displays the information on the display screen, and prompts the production line operator how to operate. By combining with ERP, SCM, MCS and other management systems, RFID enables every employee of the enterprise to exert the maximum efficiency.
The system mainly includes card issuing, station management, warehouse management and other processes.
Card issuance management
The production plan is arranged according to the production order, the goods are bound with RFID tags, the product information is obtained through the ERP related data interface and written into the tags (such as batch, box number, etc.), the product file is established in the MES system, and the conversion process of the goods production line is automatically tracked.
Station management
RFID reader and antenna are installed at each station. When the product with RFID tag enters the RFID station, the reader reads the tag data on the product and transmits the information to the logistics control management system. The system lists the package number, batch number and other information of the goods according to the product information, and displays them on the display screen to prompt the production workers to carry out relevant operations.
Warehouse management
The product is transferred to the warehouse after offline. The RFID channel reader is installed in the warehouse, which automatically collects the data of the products in and out of the warehouse, reflects the inventory situation in real time, and realizes the efficient and real-time management of the products and goods.
RFID technology is used for visual management of production lines, enabling real-time uploading and tracking of enterprise production link data. The production line management scheme combines the characteristics of each RFID electronic label (with "one item and one code"). RFID technology has great significance in the application of production line, transfer and temporary storage warehouse. RFID forms the collected data by combining with ERP, SCM, MCS and other management systems to realize real-time tracking of order progress, guarantee the delivery date, real-time and accurate collection of data in the production process, and promote the productivity to be greatly improved.
