There’s debate over the origins of the French fry did it originate with English fish and chips, French steak-frites or Belgian frieten with mayonnaise? Many have laid claim to the fried potato. What cannot be denied, however, is the dish’s popularity as a staple of the modern Western diet. But this global demand requires intense processing, and data management, from food manufacturers. That’s why, when a provider of frozen potato products, Clarebout Potatoes, sought to do more with its data, it turned to Crosser, a specialist in edge analytics for the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).

(Sponsored Feature) Large hospitals and medical organizations usually have a large stock of medical assets and goods.  A lot of these consumables, medical devices and other assets are very expensive.  They are highly used and require frequent maintenance.  With traditional management methodologies, the workload of asset management is high.  These assets are often misplaced.  When they are in need, it takes a long time to look them up as there is no way to locate these items immediately.  A huge amount of manpower and time have not been spent effectively and this has led to low efficiency and impact on the quality of services.   To this end, a lot of hospitals have introduced UHF RFID technology including RFID solutions, UHF RFID readers and others to track and locate valuable assets in real-time in order to improve asset management.

Specifically, the valuable assets are labeled with RFID tags which carry information about these items.  Subsequent asset inventory, maintenance, search work and record can be promptly completed by reading the tags using RFID intelligent terminals such as CHAINWAY C66 RFID readers, R6 UHF Sled readers, UHF fixed readers, etc.  This significantly enhances the accuracy and speed of the process and improves productivity.  This helps not only saving valuable time of the health care personnel, but also supporting more accurate inventory and avoiding unnecessary wastage.

(Sponsored Feature) For the efficiency and convenience UHF RFID could bring, they have gradually been widely applied in a lot of industries. The medical industry is no exception. The demands for timeliness and precision are high in the medical sector. Effectively ensuring the right patients have been provided with accurate and efficient medical services would affect not only the quality of services in hospitals, but also the life and death of patients.

At present, in order to improve the level of medical services and reduce the occurrence of medical errors, a lot of hospitals and medical organizations have adopted UHF handheld terminals, sled readers, and fixed readers based on UHF technology such as CHAINWAY C72 UHF RFID reader, R6 UHF sled readers, etc., for the management of newborns and the management of valuable assets such as high-value consumables, medical devices, etc.  The application of these UHF RFID terminals enables accurate tracking, locating and management of people and valuable assets, ensuring that patients are properly treated at the right time and in the right place.  At the same time, the environment in which the patients are treated can be accurately documented.

Newborn identification management application

There is a large number of newborns coming to the world every day.  However, they are similar in physical characteristics and are unable to interact with the outside world due to lack of comprehension and expression skills.  Therefore, traditional manual identification approaches are not reliable.  It is difficult even for their biological parents to accurately identify them.  Simple item identification approaches are also prone to intentional exchange.  Once an error has been made, it will have an irreversible impact on everyone.  Therefore, the identification of newborns, in addition to the ordinary patient identification, should employ a third-party matching mechanism to avoid loopholes with a single infant identification approach in order to eliminate malicious exchange.

At present, hospitals generally make use of RFID identification bands to link newborn babies to their mothers.  The information on the bands of both mother and infant are the same so that the contents for the mother and her infant can be verified as needed.  This includes the mother’s full name, identification number, sex of the baby, date and time of birth, etc.  Health care personnel can check whether the relationship is matching through UHF handheld terminals, UHF sled readers, fixed readers, etc. and fully guarantee the security of the patients.  If someone tries to steal the newborn from the ward, the RFID smart terminal, which is monitoring in real-time, can issue alerts, track the latest location of the stolen baby, and notify relevant personnel immediately.

(Sponsored News) Uly Dala is a large chain store in Kazakhstan. As the business grows, Uly Dala has opened one of the largest Uly Dala stores in the city of Jezkazgan, selling more than 20,000 items on the opening day. In order to achieve high-performance store operation and management and provide customers with a superior shopping experience, Uly Dala decided to deploy smart data acquisition terminals for intelligent goods management of their warehouses.

Challenges

1. The warehouses of shopping malls had a wide variety of goods. The efficiency of manual identification and record was low. It was not possible to effectively monitor the arrangement of goods on shelves, shelving, and inventory putaway and retrieval.
2. It was not possible to monitor the stock and consumption of goods in each warehouse in real time, thus scheduling to refill in a timely manner.
3. Real-time recording and tracking of goods movement could not be achieved. The entire goods movement from suppliers to end-users could not be effectively monitored. So, the records could not be reviewed later.

Solution

With the barcode identification technology introduced by Chainway C66 Handheld Computer, Uly Dala has achieved intelligent warehouse operation such as identification of goods being moved in and out of warehouse and identification, monitoring and tracking of shelved goods.  The equipment has also been used to manage selling prices and audit expiry dates.  An efficient, real-time and smart stock management has been attained.

The key activities during the entire process, from suppliers, warehouses through to the delivery to order, and the coordination among warehouses, for every single batch of goods, have been recorded in real time and uploaded to backend management system.  The management has been able to monitor the goods movement in real time, audit historical records and perform data analysis.

Outcomes

1. The application of C66 barcode technology has enabled the management to obtain the goods information in no time while the goods were being moved in or out of the warehouses and put on shelf by simply scanning the barcodes on the packages. The information was uploaded to the backend simultaneously.  This application has saved a lot of working hours and improved efficiency.
2. The stock and consumption data in each warehouse has become available in real time in the backend. This has facilitated the management of replenishment, dispatches from the closest warehouses, and optimization of stock allocation.
3. Managers have been able to monitor real-time dynamic information of goods via the backend management system, and file digital records. The records could be reviewed in the future and used for data analysis.
