AutoID / RFID

SIGMA PDA for production and assembly

The PDA module is used for production data acquisition and storage of object states of a component over its entire life cycle. After detection of a component by reading the attached RFID transponder or QR code, its status ( ok, nok, locked etc. ) can be booked. Depending on configuration, the booking is forwarded to third party systems.

If required, this software solution can be extended with further modules of the RFID Middleware Graidware product family such as basic fault detection ( BFD ).

The use of SIGMA PDA is part of the strategy paperless production or manufacturing.

Elements of production data acquisition

The SIGMA PDA terminal module is used for production data acquisition as well as for storing the object states of components over their entire life cycle. It supports the modes goods receipt, assembly and rework, amongst others. After detection of the component its status ( ok, nok, locked etc. ) can be booked.

 

 

The booking types Rework and Rejects guide the operator through a step-by-step error recording based on defined and pre-configured error characteristics / error zones ( also multiple ).

 

Customer-specific evaluations
