Application of RFID readers in logistics and warehousing

With the continuous development of the logistics industry, RFID technology (Radio Frequency Identificatio) plays an increasingly important role in logistics and warehousing management. As the core equipment in the RFID system, RFID readers are efficient, accurate and reliable, and are widely used in logistics and warehousing. We will introduce in detail the application of RFID readers in logistics and warehousing.

Before introducing RFID readers, we first clarify the core difficulties and challenges in the logistics and warehousing industry:

Information opacity leads to decision-making delays

l Manifestation: In traditional logistics warehousing, goods location and status information updates are lagging, management cannot obtain real-time data to support decisions

l Impact: Low order processing efficiency, imprecise resource allocation, decreased customer satisfaction

Serious inventory information distortion

l Manifestation: High error rate in manual inventory counting (typically 3-5%), inventory data does not match actual goods

l Impact: Leads to overselling or stockouts, increases operational costs, affects supply chain stability

Insufficient sorting accuracy and speed

l Manifestation: Traditional sorting relies on manual identification, slow speed with high error rates, typically processing only 200-300 items per hour

l Impact: Long order fulfillment cycles, high labor costs, increased customer complaints

Inadequate access control

l Manifestation: Traditional access control systems cannot accurately identify personnel permissions, high risk of goods theft and illegal intrusion

l Impact: Serious asset losses, prominent security risks, increased insurance costs

Serious system isolation phenomenon

l Manifestation: Data standards inconsistent among WMS, ERP, TMS systems, information cannot be synchronized in real-time

l Impact: Business process breakpoints, duplicate data entry, low overall operational efficiency

1. Cargo tracking and management

The AUTOID UTouch RFID reader can uniquely identify each cargo and realize the tracking and management of the cargo. Just paste the RFID tag on the goods, and the location, status and other information of the goods can be obtained in real time through the reader, which greatly improves the accuracy and efficiency of goods tracking.

2. Inventory management

3. Automated logistics operations

The combination of AUTOID UTouch RFID reader and logistics equipment can realize automated logistics operations. For example, in the logistics sorting process, by attaching RFID tags to the goods, the reader can quickly and accurately read the goods information, and accordingly send the goods to the designated location, which greatly improves the efficiency and accuracy of logistics sorting. Spend.

4. Security protection

RFID readers can also be used in the field of warehousing security protection. By associating RFID tags with the access control system, only personnel carrying valid RFID tags can enter the warehouse, effectively avoiding illegal intrusions and theft.

For years, SEUIC has focused on the research and development of products such as fixed scanners, handheld terminal PDAs, RFID readers, and industrial barcode scanners. Leveraging rich design experience in the industrial-grade 4G/5G terminal field and relying on highly reliable product performance and efficient services, our products have been widely used in manufacturing, retail e-commerce, logistics and express delivery, healthcare, and public utilities.
