Optimizing Automated Asset Tracking
RFID systems enhance inventory accuracy, help organizations optimize logistics processes and increase productivity. HID Global designs RFID tags that can be customized to any use case offering tags that support all standard frequencies, including low frequency, high frequency and UHF, with memory sizes that range from 64 bit to multiple kilobytes. Meanwhile, manufacturing today is increasingly sophisticated involving a myriad of complexities and automated procedures. With this sophistication has come a greater need to monitor products as they go through the production process to achieve efficiencies that lower operating costs. As part of an automation solution, HID Global’s RFID tags enable data to move with a product, adding information as the product travels through the manufacturing process. The tags can also monitor the performance and repair history of the manufacturing equipment. “We’re everywhere businesses, schools and governments need convenient ways to protect physical and digital places.
