Covid-19 issues overwhelmed\ncompanies and made a new level of awareness for greater flexibility and\ninnovation in supply chains. All of the tasks that take place in a warehouse\nhave come under review as the world learns to operate in this new normal, tasks\nsuch as managing incoming and outgoing packages, maintaining storage\nfacilities, tracking and shipping packages, and managing inventory of supplies for\nspecific clients —  COVID-19 has brought\non many challenges that require operators and managers to think differently\nabout these daily activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, general warehousing\nand storage companies are also constantly under pressure to reduce operational\ncosts while delivering greater value to their clients and customers\njust-in-time, in the right sequence and with quality assurance. Along these\nlines, the need for smarter and more efficient operations and technology is\nneeded to increase the efficiency of the job. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the introduction of UHF RFID\ntechnology, a radio wave-based technology used to transmit information to an\nRFID reader, regardless of whether there is direct sight of the product or not,\ncompanies have responded to the global disruption in warehouse storage amidst COVID-19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below are a few of the advantages\nof using UHF RFID technology and the tools to scan and document inventory based\non the use of this technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inventory Management<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To run a warehouse, you need an\nextensive, independent inventory management program as well as an in-depth warehouse\nmanagement system. RFID systems significantly simplify the job by efficiently\ntracking parts within the warehouse and monitoring the shipment of goods from\nthe warehouse to the customer. At the same time, RFID solutions can also be\ndesigned to seamlessly interface with the inventory or warehouse management\nsystem that is already in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DT Research rugged tablets with UHF RFID readers <\/a>aid the process of inventory management by performing efficient cycle counts, tracking perishable items and managing inventory on the floor. In seconds, you can locate an item without having to physically move the item. The UHF RFID reader has the ability to scan and read tags up to 6 meters\/20 feet away, thus identifying inventory on the tops of shelves and improving the speed and efficiency of operations, while minimizing the risk of human error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Storage Management<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Specifically, for storage\nfacilities that are small-scale and that cater to clients with temporary\nstorage needs, time logs and inventory checks are a necessity. In addition, the\nstorage facility needs periodic checks to ensure that the client has, in fact,\nmoved their personal belongings when notified. Time logs can be automated and\nsystematically maintained by using RFID technology to ensure efficient and\ntimely vacancy and occupancy of storage areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Optimize Floor Layout<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the warehousing industry, anything that facilitates the organization and management of inventory is a huge advantage. When there is a limited floor space, RFID technology can offer data in real-time. That means with UHF RFID technology, managers of the floor can always have a clear picture of what items are being picked up, moved, or transported to a new location at all times. Using this data allows warehouses to re-configure inventory optimizing operations frequently because the data is always current. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

RFID technology opens the flow of information for everyone involved in the operations of a warehouse. With its capabilities of connecting to the internet and smart devices, the integration of UHF RFID in rugged tablets<\/a> for warehouse operations results in a more efficient process, minimizes human error, and mitigates the impact for storage needs brought by logistics shifts and disruptions. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
