RFID Project Tool Tracking For Maintenance Management

NORDAM collaborates with 3M to implement RFID tracking solution into its manufacturing operations, which is part of a Six Sigma improvement project. The radio frequency identification (RFID) system manages tool across a large manufacturing facility. ...

Nordam RFID project

... "The initial 18-month project involved attaching passive, temperature-resistant UHF tags to a variety of small and large tools used in the construction of business jet composite interior panels. NORDAM and 3M installed corresponding scanning stations in strategic positions throughout the manufacturing process, such as tool storage areas, composite lay-up rooms, and curing ovens. As a tagged tool passes an RFID portal, the tracking system registers information about the tool instantly, such as location, age, and usage history. This information is then used to maximize asset utilization and schedule tool maintenance. " ...
