UHF RFID clothing supply chain management system
[ad_1]
1. Industry overview
In the traditional concept, the clothing industry is a low-tech labor-intensive industry, but in fact, the development of the entire industry is inseparable from the height of science and technology. From the production of clothing fabrics to clothing design, production and production, logistics to terminal sales, any link is indispensable to the support of scientific and technological strength, especially in supply chain management, faced with inaccurate inventory information, often out of stock and out of stock, goods cannot be Tracking and tracing, often sending wrong goods, asynchronous logistics and information flow, and high labor intensity have brought considerable challenges to the operation and management of garment enterprises.
In recent years, many garment enterprises have also realized the importance of scientific and technological power, and began to explore the supply chain management represented by barcode technology. Information level of chain management. However, due to the poor penetration of barcode recognition, it must be sensed within a small distance. The barcode recognition process cannot be read in batches, and there are many misreading situations in the barcode recognition process. This is because barcodes are printed on paper media. easily damaged and destroyed. In addition, the information that the barcode itself can represent is too single, and cannot describe more characteristics of a certain piece of clothing. There is still a lot of room for improvement in the information management of the clothing supply chain.
2. Technology application
UHF RFID technology is a new automatic identification technology that has changed the supply chain management mode of the clothing industry after bar code technology. It uses the principle of radio frequency identification, which can work in various harsh working environments and can penetrate certain The RFID tag can also repeatedly erase and write data, and the tag can be reused. These characteristics determine that it is currently the most suitable industry for the application of RFID technology. In the process of entering and leaving the warehouse and inventory, the clothing is read in batches accurately, which reduces the labor intensity and avoids possible errors in manual operations, bringing a qualitative leap for enterprises in management cost control, rational allocation of resources and comprehensive competitiveness of enterprises.
3. System Design
3.1 Precise packing
Labels are the basis of the entire RFID system. Each electronic label needs to be encoded at the front end, and then bound to the clothing to complete the identification of clothing information by the electronic label.
Using the unique identity of RFID tags, sticking, embedding or implanting RFID tags on each piece of clothing can completely solve the problem of unrecognized and tracked clothing when packing, and achieve accurate packing.
3.2 Inventory management
Clothing out of the warehouse is a reverse process. The clothing from the warehouse also passes through the RFID reading platform to complete the acquisition of outbound clothing information in batches, and verify the outbound order to ensure the consistency of logistics and data flow.
The schematic diagram of the RFID reading platform is as follows:
3.3 Warehouse inventory
The traditional method of using barcode or manual inventory one by one has long inventory cycle, heavy workload, heavy tasks, slow speed, low efficiency, error-prone and large error. The application of RFID technology in inventory can give full play to the advantages of long-distance and simultaneous reading of multiple tags.
The operator only needs to download the clothing information to be counted in the background system. After arriving at the warehouse, using the RFID mobile handheld terminal, the system information can be quickly and accurately compared with the actual clothing information collected to complete the inventory task.
3.4 Extended application
RFID can also be used in anti-theft applications in warehouses. Install an RFID reading channel at the door of the warehouse. Any unauthorized apparel products will be identified and alerted by the system when entering or leaving the warehouse.
The application of RFID technology in clothing supply chain management can realize the automation of warehouse management, check the inventory of each warehouse at any time, and track the logistics process of products in time. At the same time, the use of electronic labels can easily achieve the accuracy of the receipt of goods and the automation of delivery and distribution, so that there will be no omission and loss of inventory. Real-time and transparent supply management can provide scientific basis for clothing sales, production and stocking while ensuring the first-in, first-out of clothing.
