Mobile data capture with RFID handhelds
With a manual / mobile recording and identification of AutoID marked objects ( e.g. goods or goods carriers ) objects can be recognized and booked at defined points. The recorded data is automatically transferred to third party systems by means of RFID middleware GRAIDWARE ® and collected for evaluation if required.
The use of suitable handheld devices allows flexible use, for example, in narrow or changing acquisition points. The assistant-supported menu navigation allows a very easy and intuitive operation.
Advantages of mobile data capture with RFID
- Bulk capture ( for example, for physical inventory )
- Identification through packaging without visual contact
- Representation of process-adequate application
- simple and intuitive operation through assisted user interface design
- Very high system mobility
- System can be used in harsh and adverse environmental conditions despite contamination
- high availability through mobile radio systems such as WLAN, UMTS or GPRS
- Use of different AutoID technologies ( e.g. RFID, barcode, etc. ) in one device
Examples of use
- goods-in / goods-out
- RFID order picking
- Production
- Tool Management
- Maintenance
- Warehouse management
- Intralogistics
- Shipping
Functions
- ready-made standard application for identifying Auto ID marked objects
- Linking of Auto ID marked objects ( e.g. article with box, packaging material with pallet or machine with tool )
- WLAN interface to GRAIDWARE ® Server
- Buffer for data storage, e.g. for ( temporarily ) non-existent WLAN
- LAN interface to the GRAIDWARE ® server ( data exchange when plugged into LAN docking station )
