RFID Technologies >> Representative Applications >> Crate Management
System
|
|
|
Reltronics Technologies has implemented a Crate Tracking Solution based on ReALTrack
RFID Framework with the SmartInstrument, the versatile network appliance which is
capable of communicating data via Bluetooth, WiFi, and LAN, while furnishing detailed
GPS coordinates for location identification. SmartInstrument has obtained
certification under CE, FCC, and PTCRB, required to deploy wireless technologies
over the GSM network and therefore providing the versatility of communicating data
anytime and anywhere.
Reltronics Technologies has provided extensibility to the existing Government system
in order to cut down the solution deployment, implementation, and maintenance costs
and to have a greater degree of control in the Live Bird Market (LBM) supply chain
activities. ReALeID and the ReALeIDManager assist the existing Government System
to take care of the LBM related data with the actual RFID sensor network being managed
by the ReALeID application. This offers greater equilibrium in price and quality
of the deployed solution and provides higher degree of control over the Live Bird
Market System Supply Chain.
Reltronics Technologies, Inc. offers the SmartInstrument™, which is an automatic
vehicle location and content management system, developed based upon the ReALTrack
framework and utilizing the GPS technology and the GSM/GPRS wireless data transmission
across the wireless networks. Reltronics Technologies is involved in Developing
and Deploying novel, next-generation Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) application
products. It develops the ReALTrack RFID framework as well as novel RFID products
(such as the SmartInstrument) that enable seamless and transparent integration of
legacy RFID technologies with the latest RFID technologies.
About Reltronics Technologies: Reltronics Technologies (www.reltronicstech.com)
specializes in Security and Tracking. The company assists in developing, installing,
and maintaining the security systems. Among the key areas that Reltronics Technologies
concentrates on are (1) GPS Tracking Systems, (2) Automated Vehicle Location &
Content Management Systems, (3) Fire & Security Systems, (4) Radio Frequency
Identification (RFID) Systems, (5) Asset Management Systems, and (6) Record Management
Systems. Reltronics Technologies is certified by New York State to install,

Introduction
|
|
|
Pakster (www.pakster.com), a division of PI, Inc, (www.pi-inc.com) has partnered
with Reltronics Technologies, Inc. (www.reltronicstech.com), and now offers an automatic
crate location (SmartCrate™) system based upon the ReALTrack framework. The
system is a real-time crate identifier which simplifies the crate management process
by congregating and managing associated information regarding the crate in a timely
and efficient manner.
The system records crate information and crate movement automatically and provides
updated and accurate data in real time without human intervention.
|
|
|
Installation Technique
|
|
|
|
Reader/Sensing Equipment is installed inside the crate washer. The crates
have an inherent electronic id or RFID chip. This chip is automatically sensed
by the equipment as the crates are washed. There is no human intervention.
Data is automatically sent across the Internet and is accessible by all authorized
personnel. System comes with a complete web-based system to determine the location
of the crate at each instant in time.
|
|
Benefits of the crate management system
|
|
Among several advantages, the system will immediately benefit the organization with
the following:
|
|
Provides data where crates are, or have crate, equipment, tools and other resources
when required.
|
|
|
Closely monitors information including crate movement.
|
|
|
Enables an organization to manage its crates with automated information updates.
|
|
|
Assures accurate and timely data transmission.
|
|
|
Reduces the crate base with improved crate utilization.
|
|
|
Increases efficiency of crate consumption.
|
|
|
Assures increased productivity.
|
|
|
Enables purchase efficiency.
|
|
|
Ascertains cost-effective maintenance.
|
|
|
Contributes to the enhancement and better return of investment.
|
|
|
Identifies the crate in real-time.
|
|
|
Setup
|
|
Setup takes less than one hour and the system comes ready to deploy. This equipment
has been installed in numerous locations and is time tested.
|
|
|
|
|
Crate Content Monitoring Expansion with GPS
|
|
While Pakster can assist in detecting the crates going through the washer and identify
them, the local crate monitoring system can be expanded in moving vehicles with
the installation of the SmartInstrument licensed by Pakster from Reltronics Technologies.
The GPS-based system can monitor vehicle movement as well as the number of crates
that are loaded. It can pin-point the location of the vehicle in the supply-chain
so that robust decisions are made either to re-orient the delivery schedule or to
re-tract the delivery.
|
|
|
|
Electronic or Radio-Frequency Identification
|
|
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags are required for the crate content identification.
The tags are environmentally robust (rugged with a read-distance between 5-25 feet).
Pakster provides a radio frequency based GPS Automated Crate Locator System for
the Poultry & Feed industry.
The System is able to immediately enhance efficiency, improve safety and customer
service. The turn-key system includes hardware interface, installation and training
and enables users with the most data, using the least amount of effort, at a reasonable
cost. Information becomes available on the crates from any location with internet
access. The system is translatable and Pakster can provide seamless expansion capability
of expanding the crate locating system to additional crates, such as service crates,
other units and delivery crates. The expansion of the system can be for the following:
|
|
|
Obtain driver and passenger information boarding the vehicles in the form of Radio
Frequency Identification (RFID) using a proximity card. Determine if the drivers
are authorized to drive the vehicles.
|
|
|
Obtain instant lot information on the crate inventory.
|
|
|
Determine stopping times of drivers.
|
|
|
Determine route diversions.
|
|
|
Guide drivers to alternate locations.
|
|
|
Expeditiously reroute shipments based upon content.
|
|
|
Verify shipment content.
