Smart Industries: Logistics Making Industry 4.0 a Reality

We help industries to optimize and automate their production and supply chain management processes by providing real-time visibility to asset and component tracking and traceability.

Logistics applications

 

Returnable Transit Item Pooling

Plastic and metallic containers, roll cages and intermediate bulk containers are stored outdoors, handled roughly and facing washing processes – the RFID tag must tolerate all of the same elements. By giving a unique ID for every single container the reliability and efficiency of handling the whole RTI pool is taken to a new level.

Plastic pallets

Tagging plastic pallets requires a robust tag that can withstand the mechanical impacts of forklifts handling the pallets. Carrier family offers both label and hard tag options. Industrial labels are optimal for pallets that offer protective slot for the tag. Hard tags are designed to withstand robust handling when no protection is given by the pallet structure.

Suitable products

Plastic boxes

Boxes used to transmit various items from automotive componets to apples share same requirements for the tag. When same tag is recycled in the pool it needs to withstand all the washing processes of box itself. Carrier family offers variety of products designed for harsh industrial use with high end adhesive. eKanban is a specific product to tag VDA compliant plastic boxes in the automotive industry.

Post and Parcel

RFID applications to track and trace goods from supplier to customers have become standard in around-the-clock logistics operations. Giving a unique ID for every package and automating the process brings number of benefits, including less incorrect shipments, faster deliveries, better visibility over the whole process and less customer service queries.

Carton boxes
