RFID technology more and more becomes a serious resource to facilitate and improve working and services in industrial and hazardous areas.
By combining with GPS, RFID technology can be used as a powerful tool to locate assets in the plant. Workers spending hours of their time inspecting cables and pipes, can now identify assets easier. Even in case of emergency, critical assets can be found and located more quickly, and disaster can be avoided or stopped.
Ideally, assets have been provided with a RFID tag at birth. Workers can read these tags with handheld RFID readers (i.roc® Ci70 -Ex or Ident-Ex® 01) and their Smartphone or Tablet, to get instant access to the asset's history; including all activities such as inspections or repairs. By scanning the RFID tag, all field data is delivered via wireless technologies, such as Wi-Fi or 4G LTE, to the engineer's mobile device; even logging who performed these operations, in the past. If a repair is needed, the software installed on your mobile device tells you what tools are required.
Thus, it can also be a dynamic lifecycle management tool for quality control. Moreover, this technology will save money and time, and will improve your workers' efficiency and productivity. To master challenging situations, ecom recently launched a professional scan engine. It's an intrinsically safe Barcode Scanner and RFID Reader providing outstanding scan performances. With a unique modular design, the Ident-Ex® 01 can be specifically configured to the customer's requirements by selecting different head modules and paired with a smartphone or tablet device.
