At SMT Intelligence, the use of barcodes in tandem with RF-ID technology provides a winning combination for transparent and efficient traceability, ensuring that every component and finished product can be reliably tracked throughout its lifecycle.
Étiquette RFID
Real-Time Tracking: RFID tags enable the real-time tracking of products' movements and status, thereby improving inventory management and logistics.
Wide Reading Range: Unlike barcodes, RFIDs can be read from a distance and through various materials, making tracking more efficient.
Durability and Reusability: RFID tags are robust and can be reused, offering economic benefits in the long term.
Automation and Efficiency: Automating product tracking reduces human errors, saves time, and enhances operational efficiency.
Enhanced Security: RFIDs can be used for product security, preventing theft and counterfeiting.
Diverse Applications: Used across many sectors, from libraries (book management) to logistics, access control, and animal tracking.
Technology History: RFID technology was developed during World War II to identify friendly or enemy aircraft.
Extended Capabilities: Active RFID tags, equipped with a small battery, can transmit signals over greater distances and store more data than passive tags.
Internet of Things (IoT) Connectivity: RFIDs play a crucial role in the IoT by allowing objects to communicate information without human intervention.
Speed and Efficiency: RFID systems can read multiple tags simultaneously, significantly speeding up inventory and checkout processes.
Barcode
The use of barcodes complements our transparent traceability system, enabling precise tracking from individual components to finished products.
- Efficiency: Barcode scanning is fast and reduces the risk of human errors, speeding up the tracking and inventory process.
- Accessibility: Barcode technologies are accessible and widely adopted, making their integration into existing systems easy.
