RFID technology helps clothing management
The clothing industry is an industry that integrates R&D, design, production and sales. Currently, most clothing companies use barcodes for data collection. However, as the business scale of clothing companies continues to expand, the number of receipts and shipments continues to increase, and inventory management The difficulty has increased, and the method of scanning garments one by one based on barcode technology can no longer meet the requirements for efficient receipt and delivery operations.
With the development of the Internet of Things, the application of RFID technology in the field of clothing management continues to accelerate and penetrate, and gradually becomes a trend. It is widely used in clothing production, warehousing logistics, daily store operations, after-sales services and other aspects to easily achieve anti-counterfeiting, traceability, Circulation and market control can help improve the efficiency of clothing management and the satisfaction of shopping experience. Currently, there are many companies using RFID technology in the clothing industry, such as UNIQLO, Decathlon, ZARA, Heilan House, etc.
Types of RFID clothing tags
The main form of RFID application in the clothing industry is RFID textile tag. Through the application of RFID textile tag, anti-counterfeiting, traceability, circulation and market control can be achieved.
RFID laundry tag is encapsulated in flexible non-woven fabric, which is resistant to bending, can be rubbed repeatedly, and can be washed up to 200 times. It is a highly sensitive RFID washable tag.
、
PPS laundry tag is a washable laundry tag with a shape and size similar to that of a button. It is packaged in PPS Plastic. It has the advantages of high temperature resistance, flame retardant, chemical corrosion resistance, wear resistance, etc., and is widely used in It is used in applications such as laundry, high-end clothing, school uniforms, special clothing, clothing production management, product tracking, clothing warehouse inventory, etc.
4. EAS RFID tag
EAS RFID tag is encapsulated in ABS material and have a magnetic buckle design. They are easy to install and can be reused. The surface can be printed and coded. It integrates EAS alarm performance and RFID performance. In RFID management Based on the extended EAS anti-theft function, it has excellent reading and writing performance and is used for clothing anti-counterfeiting and anti-theft.
Rubber clothing labels are resistant to high temperatures and rubbing. They are mainly used in the dry cleaning industry to track and check the washing status of clothes. The tags use silicone encapsulation technology and can be sewn, hot-ironed or hung on clothing.
Application of RFID clothing management
1. Production line management
During the clothing production process, the important attributes of a single piece of clothing are written in the RFID clothing tag, such as: item number, name, size, fabric, washing method, execution standard, quality inspector and other information, and the clothing manufacturer will RFID linen tags are bound to clothing. Each piece of RFID cloth tag is unique. When the RFID cloth tag passes through the reader, the reader will automatically read the tag information and update the production progress, realizing real-time monitoring and management of the production line, improving production efficiency and quality.
2. Transshipment management
After the clothing is produced, it begins to enter the supply chain. During the warehousing and transportation process, boxes of clothing will enter the channel machine of the reading and writing equipment along the conveyor line. The channel machine will batch scan the RFID linen tags in the boxes. After the scanning is completed, the channel machine will upload the collected data to the receipt and delivery system for comparison of the quantity of goods receivable and actually received. If confirmed, the channel machine will automatically release and transmit to the next link. If the collected data is consistent with the If the box regulations do not comply with the regulations, the abnormal boxes will be inspected promptly.
3. Inventory inventory
Clothing retail stores use RFID handheld readers to conduct daily inventory. Inventory personnel only need to hold the handheld device and conduct non-contact scanning of the store's clothing to quickly and batchly collect clothing cargo information and improve inventory efficiency. and accuracy, helping store staff understand clothing inventory at any time, replenish goods in a timely manner, and ensure efficient operation of the store.
4. After-sales traceability
When returns or product recalls occur, RFID technology can accurately track the products involved to ensure smooth returns and recalls, helping companies respond to market changes in a timely manner, protect consumer rights, and maintain brand image.
