MoreHow do I install fixed RFID readers for warehouse inventory management?
Installing fixed RFID readers in warehouses requires strategic planning to ensure accurate inventory tracking. Follow these steps:
- Map Key Zones
- Identify high-traffic areas: dock doors, aisles, packing stations.
- Use UHF RFID readers for long-range coverage (up to 12 meters).
- Mounting & Positioning
- Install readers 3–5 meters high, angled 15–30° downward.
- Avoid metal obstructions (shelves, machinery) to reduce signal interference.
- Power & Connectivity
- Use PoE+ (Power over Ethernet) for combined power and data transmission.
- Connect readers to a central server via industrial-grade switches.
- Antenna Configuration
- Pair with circular-polarized antennas (e.g., AR-2610-CP) to handle tag orientation changes.
- Integration with WMS
- Sync RFID data with warehouse management systems (e.g., SAP EWM) using middleware like Siemens SIMATIC.
Pro Tip: Test coverage with a handheld RFID scanner to identify dead zones.
