Inventory Management
RFID asset tracking does not require line of sight for scanning, unlike barcode labels where the employee has to be able to see the label to get a scan. Because RFID tags can be read from any orientation, it can speed up the scanning and inventory management process and reduce the labor associated with repositioning boxes for scanning.
Here to summarize the benefits of switching to use RFID at your warehouse:
- Tags do not have to be seen in order to read data.
- RFID tags can store up to 100 times the data of barcodes, allowing you to keep track of all the data you need for your inventory such as lot and serial number, size, manufacturer, vendor, expiration date, user, location on production line and anything else you might want to know.
- Readers can read up to 200 tags at once. This will increase speed and productivity
- The position of each tag is flexible (as long as they are not blocked by metal or water) since the tag doesn’t need to be physically seen by the reader. For example, you can place tags in boxes or within a pallet.
- RFID technology is functional inside and outside the warehouse. The technology has the capacity to withstand harsh environments and temperatures, even the tags!
