FEATURES & BENEFITS
Peacock Bros, through an automation systems integrator, provided a unique RFID tracking
solution using a combination of handheld readers, fixed RFID portals and rugged RFID
tags to meet the needs of a large airline catering business. The end solution provided an
automated means of tracking trolley movements throughout the facility from point of entr y,
through de-contamination and washing, storage, refilling and dispatch, which resulted
in a complete traceability profile for each trolley in a ver y challenging environment.
Solution components:
Handheld RFID reader, rugged RFID tags, fixed RFID reader, industrial RFID antenna, software
application and inter face to HOST SCADA/ERP System via both wired and wireless networks.
Asset and inventor y tracking in remote areas is an essential requirement for companies
in industries such as Transport & Logistics and Mining. Peacock Bros has designed a
container tracking solution using RFID Tags and vehicle-mounted RFID readers to record
and track container movements within yards located in remote areas of Australia.
Solution:
• To provide WIFI coverage outdoors within a remote rugged site via wireless access
points mounted on poles 30m high creating MeshConnex Network. The network
provides wireless coverage for data to be transferred from the fixed mount computers
located on the forklift to the main database located in the control room.
• Each container was fitted with an RFID tag that upon pickup from a forklift is
detected via the fixed mount RFID reader. The tag data is decoded and processed
by the forklift’s on-board computer. This data is then sent back to the main
database in the control room via the MeshConnex wireless network.
• A redundancy system was also designed, and consists of a large reflective barcode located on
the container, that can be scanned via a handheld scanner that is linked to the forklift’s on-
board computer providing the same data capture functionality as the RFID read solution.
