Productivity increase with RFID Kanban
RFID Kanban: Save time and reduce costs.
- RFID Kanban supply with our brand CPS® (C-Product Service)
- C-parts supply using Radio Frequency Identification.
- Radio transmission of the item and bin data directly from the customer's production facility to the central Würth Industrie Service warehouse
- Early recognition of demand fluctuations
- Automated repeat orders without the need for scanning or manual entry
- Maximum supply security
The technique is explained quickly: The basis is an insensitive chip with antenna, referred to as a so-called RFID tag or RFID transponder, which is attached to the respective object, in the C-Parts area as a label on the Kanban bin, and is movable. Each tag is identifiable by a unique number for data security. An RFID system also consists of a reading device for detecting the transponder and the sending unit for data transmission or for the automated reordering of C-Parts for production. The essential distinction of the systems lies in passive or active RFID transponders.
While passive RFID transponders do not have their own power supply and gain the energy to send the data from the energy field generated by the reader, active transponders have their own energy source, for example battery, which initiates the data transfer.
Würth Industrie Service operates both systems, but mainly favors systems with passive RFID transponders, as these are maintenance-free. In addition, the integration of systems with passive transponders is seamlessly possible and no change in customer processes necessary.
iDISPLAY
The digital shelf label displays all item information, enables reordering at the push of a button, and offers a pick-by-light function when used with the iTERMINAL.
iTERMINAL: the digital information point
The screen displays all information about the Kanban rack at a glance and enables item search via pick-by-light in combination with the iDISPLAY.
iSCALE and iSCALE pal
The two weighing systems send a demand notification as soon as a defined weight threshold is undershot. iSCALE is a sensor-controlled scale directly connected to a Kanban bin. iSCALE pal uses the same technology for pallets and accommodates up to 64 bins.
Kanban information platform WIS Portal
The specially developed WIS Portal provides you with complete transparency in the Kanban process! Bin status, item location, and fill quantities, as well as consumption analyses and turnover volumes, can be accessed at any time with just a few clicks. Additionally, the system gives you access to material and certificate data, as well as invoices, delivery notes, order notifications, and item data lists.
CPS®Kanban flex: the flexible Kanban rack
Our self-developed Kanban rack impresses with its stability, sturdiness, and flexibility.
Kanban bins
Our Würth small load carriers according to VDA standards can be perfectly combined and offer optimal storage solutions for a wide variety of items. With our bins, you make the most of your available storage space.
