RFID Tracking
Identify assets, pallets and work in progress with readers and tags selected for each read zone.
RFID
Details and scope
Identify assets, pallets and work in progress with readers and tags selected for each read zone.
- Applications
- Asset check-in and check-out · Pallet and work-in-progress tracking · Read-zone design and duplicate-event filtering
- Project inputs
- Tag type, material and mounting position · Reader interface and antenna layout · Event rules and connection to asset or production systems
- Delivery scope
- RFID reads identifiers; location and movement are inferred from configured read zones. Validate read rate on real materials before acceptance.
- Project format
- Devices with setup or a scoped integration project
- Acceptance
- Validate against actual equipment and customer reference data
Operational uses
Identify assets, pallets and work in progress with readers and tags selected for each read zone.
- Asset check-in and check-out
- Pallet and work-in-progress tracking
- Read-zone design and duplicate-event filtering
Before system design
Select devices and integration around the actual site.
- Tag type, material and mounting position
- Reader interface and antenna layout
- Event rules and connection to asset or production systems
Scope and acceptance
RFID reads identifiers; location and movement are inferred from configured read zones. Validate read rate on real materials before acceptance.
- Validate readings and events against actual devices
- Specify devices, software licences, integration and training in the quotation
DETAILS & PLANNING
Plan your RFID project
From site inputs to daily use
RFID reads identifiers; location and movement are inferred from configured read zones. Validate read rate on real materials before acceptance.
- Tag type, material and mounting position
- Reader interface and antenna layout
- Event rules and connection to asset or production systems
Validate before rollout
Compare actual device data with displayed values and source events. Test disconnection, recovery, user permissions and handover documentation against jointly agreed operational scenarios.
- Correct readings and events
- Defined handling of missing data
- Operator acceptance of the workflow

Questions about this topic
Is this included in every cloud package?
Devices, licences, development and integration are assessed separately from cloud subscriptions. Confirm scope in the quotation.
Can we start with a pilot?
Start with selected read zones or a production line, and validate against actual equipment before adding devices and sites.
Choose hardware and software that work together
Start with your equipment and data points, then define the right site scope.
