RFID Project for Kovapaint
RFID on Paint Production Line and Warehouse Management
Industry: Paint Manufacturing | Scale: Production Plant
Before and After RFID
Before — Barcode
Must scan each paint drum individually, line-of-sight required.
Large warehouse, tens of thousands of drums, production must stop.
Barcodes get paint-stained, faded, torn, unscannable.
Scan each drum on pallet, queue at dock doors.
Staff write on paper, enter into system at end of day.
After — RFID
Scan entire pallet at once, no line-of-sight needed.
Audit entire warehouse without stopping production.
RFID tags resist paint, chemicals, unaffected by dirt.
Forklift drives through RFID gate, auto-recorded.
Instant ERP update on every in/out/movement.
Video: RFID vs Barcode Speed
See the real-world speed difference between RFID and barcode at the factory.
