Manufacturing Processes

RFID provides reliable tracking of materials, parts, and goods throughout the manufacturing process and along the entire value chain.

Improve Operations with RFID

Today’s highly automated manufacturing processes require reliable tracking of materials, parts, and goods along the entire supply chain. Supply chains that move a high volume of goods can result in complex processes and poor visibility. Asset identification and location tracking with the help of RFID technology increases the overall efficiency of operations.

RFID drives efficiency across the entire supply chain of a business. Due to the on-demand economy that surrounds us, fast-paced manufacturing and distribution have become paramount. As a result, RFID and real-time location tracking make businesses more competitive in the marketplace by gaining access to the most accurate data. Give your business a competitive advantage by reducing order time and eliminating wasted tasks when you deploy a custom RFID solution from RMS Omega.

Enhanced visibility in the Manufacturing Process

  • Work in Process Tracking: Monitor products or raw materials as they pass through different steps in a process. Enforce compliance and tracking stages of production with ease.
  • Inventory VisibilityAutomate inventory counts and workflows throughout your value chain with RFID inventory management solutions.
  • Asset Tracking: Utilize RFID with a combination of barcode-based technology applications to efficiently track multiple types of assets across an entire organization with real-time accuracy
  • Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS): Pinpoint the movement and location of assets, inventory, and personnel with real-time location systems and RFID.
  • Check-in/Check-Out: Eliminate time-consuming paper systems or enhance your barcode-enabled check-in / check-out processes with RFID.

Benefits of RFID Solutions in Manufacturing

RFID technology can take your manufacturing operations to the next level by:

  • Improving efficiency and lowering operating costs by minimizing lost assets and wasted products.
  • Easily identify errors with a completely visible supply chain.
  • Improve inventory accuracy with RFID tags and readers that don’t need a direct line of sight
  • Real-time information enables just-in-time manufacturing with improved timing and use of assets to reduce customer wait time.

What Goes Into An RFID System

Our RFID solutions use the right mix of tags, readers, software, and services to tackle your specific challenges.

  • Tags & Supplies

    Tags, labels, and inlays are the fundamental building block of any RFID solution. Between passive or active, a range of frequencies, label specsand environmental conditions there is a lot to evaluate when finding the right label.

  • Handheld Readers

    Gun-style, rugged handheld readers and good for read-intensive tasks in the warehouse and other industrial environments where a large quantity of tag data needs to be collected in a timeefficient manner.

  • Antennas

    Antennas provide the vital link between the fixed reader and tag, serving as the conduit that moves data back and forth. 

  • RFID Portals in Warehouse
    Fixed Readers & Portals

    With fixed RFID readers and checkpoints, you can quickly and accurately track large volumes of RFID-tagged cases, pallets, and items. They are ideal for use in high-density tag environments, high throughput applications, and on RF-challenging materials.

  • Printers & Encoders

    RFID printers give you the ability to identify, track, manage, and optimize, assets and inventory. Encoding (or printing) on RFID tags is the first step to having a successful RFID system.

  • RFID Software

    RMS Omega has partnerships with a variety of software vendors, allowing us to find the right inventory control or check-in/ check-out software for your application. RFID software provides a central database for monitoring inventory levels, location, and movement.

A Complete Solution From Design To Support

Every facility and business process has its own unique challenges. That is why RMS Omega takes a hands-on approach in managing RFID and RTLS implementations. Our process starts with understanding your unique challenges, needs, and goals – helping us create a solution that delivers positive outcomes for your business. Ultimately, we want to ensure that you receive a technology solution that exceeds your expectations and delivers a positive ROI. Our six-step process ensures just that.

Discovery & Design

Our trained systems & sales engineers will evaluate your work environment to determine the best plan of action for strategic technology implementation to solve challenges and achieve both short and long-term goals.

Project Management

RMS Omega has an internal team of solutions experts to oversee the successful design and implementation of complex and technical projects. We will monitor the project from the start and make sure everything is completed within an established timeline.

Statement of Work

The statement of work is a document that will map out our plan for implementation. This includes both hardware and software along with a description of processes after the system is complete. You will also receive a timeline for each phase of the project.

Deployment

During deployment, we collaborate with your team to bring the proposed plan to fruition. Deploying each strategy often includes network design and implementation, staging and configuration of hardware, data integration, and staff training. Each of these necessary steps will ensure your team can hit the ground running once your system is live.

Analysis & Optimization

In an Analysis and Optimization, or A&O, we want to ensure your system is functioning the way it was intended. This is a process designed to optimize and enhance the performance of wireless coverage or system functionality throughout your facility and processes. An A&O is performed to identify and correct poor signals or reads along with incorrectly installed or underperforming hardware.

On-going Support

We are here to be an extension of your team, one point of contact for all of your data collection and RFID technology solution needs. To assist your organization in reaching new levels of productivity, you need a true partner, not just a vendor. That’s why we believe our support services are essential.
