Body identification
TURCK's UHF RFID solutions reliably track vehicles across all production steps with just one tag
benefits
- Cross-production identification with just one tag
- Maximum detection rate through polarization switching
- Minimal installation effort thanks to Power over Ethernet (PoE) and integrated I/Os
Challenge
A key challenge in digital production and logistics in the automotive industry is to reliably identify all vehicles across all process steps. Since different identification technologies are often used within the same plant, networking can be severely limited and central data collection becomes difficult. In addition, important information is still partly recorded on paper, which reduces the transparency and efficiency of production processes and increases maintenance costs.
Solution
Robust UHF RFID solutions enable the identification of body and body parts across all vehicles. A high-temperature-resistant RFID tag accompanies each vehicle through the production process and enables continuous identification and tracking from the body shop to delivery. The Q150 RFID UHF reader offers flexible switching polarization for improved read reliability, especially in environments where there is metallic interference such as on production lines. The devices can be connected directly to controllers via Ethernet without additional interfaces, which greatly simplifies installation and reduces costs. These measures enable more efficient production control and increased investment security, as the RFID reader can be used flexibly in various network architectures and a separate power supply is not required thanks to Power over Ethernet.
"Our RFID solutions provide reliable, end-to-end vehicle identification throughout multiple production steps."
