RFID-based Production Line Management at a Factory in Vietnam

Background
 
In the production process of wire products at a factory in Vietnam, the traditional fixed scanning method of QR codes cannot be used due to the continuous transformation of product forms and structures. In order to ensure production efficiency and product quality, the factory decided to adopt an automated production line management solution based on Chainway UR4 and SR160 RFID scanners to control the production and quality tracing of the entire production line.
 
Challenges
 
  1. Wire products undergo continuous transformations during the production process, making the traditional QR code labeling method inapplicable.
  2. The harsh industrial environment of the production line includes high temperatures and strong magnetic fields, requiring high-performance reader devices.
  3. The production line has complex processes, with different process workflows and times, making implementation difficult. In addition, there is interference between some processes, which affects the accuracy of data collection.
 
Solution
 
Chainway and its partners have jointly developed an RFID-based automated production traceability system solution for wire products, based on user needs and the challenges faced. The solution involves installing RFID tags on all products on the production line and binding product information to these tags. Chainway UR4 fixed RFID readers are installed at the corresponding process positions on the production line to automatically collect and upload product tag information to the RFID control system in real-time. The RFID control system completes data collection, analysis, and storage based on the process flow, and then uploads the final results to the production control system, enabling real-time control of the product production process and traceability management of product quality.
 
Chainway SR160 RFID scanners are deployed for product management in the storage process. After the production of wire products is completed, workers print and paste barcodes for these products, and then use Chainway SR160 to read the product barcode or RFID information for product binding, achieving intelligent storage management.
 
Effects
 
  1. This solution helps customers achieve automated production traceability management of wire-based products, reducing manual intervention and enabling customers to clearly and timely grasp the production process of their products, thereby improving the controllability of the production process. Moreover, based on real-time production data, more reasonable production plans can be formulated.
 
  1. Due to the excellent anti-interference performance of Chainway UR4 and SR160, the system achieves accurate data collection even in the harsh industrial environment of the production line, successfully solving the data collection problems during the production process.
  2. Production management personnel can quickly grasp the changes in the production site and make accurate judgments and rapid response measures, minimizing production errors.
  3. This solution can provide management information for production, quality inspection, process, logistics departments, etc., promoting more efficient collaboration between departments. It can also help companies continuously optimize the entire manufacturing process, achieve a complete closed-loop production, and ultimately achieve intelligent manufacturing and management.
