THE DEVELOPMENT OF MATERIAL FLOW ARCHITECTURE USING RFID TECHNOLOGY IN REAL INDUSTRIAL ENVIRONMENT
The development of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is widely used to monitor pallets, cases or individual items in industrial manufacturing fields. However, this method was implemented only at the warehouse where it captured raw materials that need to undergo with manufacturing process until it becomes products but it was not monitor during the process in production line. Our proposed is to build the RFID system that can capture real-time data and monitoring during the entire production work flow where the transmission, tracing, storage and retrieval of overall process can be done. This technology is associate with unique electronic identity that are embedded to raw materials throughout the manufacturing cycle where it was registered to the RFID reader at every workstation so that the information for the start and end at each job can be transmitted to the main server at real-time for storage, categorizing, tracing, processing and analyzing. By these technology systems, we can promptly update of production-line information with real-time visibility of the whole work in progress production management among offices and sites in a construction supply chain environment.
