The personal protective equipment industry, which also includes industrial respiratory protection, is increasingly turning to RFID chip technology to transmit information via radio frequency signals.
RFID technology is increasingly being used in production processes, where the opportunities in terms of efficiency and technology are significant. This makes RFID chips a versatile technology that can be used in many applications.
These are just some of the many benefits RFID technology can bring to respiratory protection and its users:
Equipment management of the respiratory protection components: RFID chips are applied both to the products themselves and to their packaging. In this way, operations are mapped transparently and efficiently.
Inventory management: RFID chips are used in warehouse management to track and manage inventory in real time. This prevents overloads, but also identifies the need for certain products and equipment at an early stage and prevents bottlenecks that could lead to downtime.
Individual allocation of the equipment to the respirator wearer.
Maintenance and repair: RFID chips attached to machines and equipment provide important information on maintenance intervals, thus reducing repair costs and downtime.
Quality control: RFID chips can help you maintain quality standards and detect and correct any deviations.
Other information such as current positions and movements can also be monitored in real time.
Over the past few years, the development has continued to progress and is now being used in a wide range of industries to optimise processes and increase efficiency.
BartelsRieger has also successfully implemented RFID technology:
Clear and permanent marking of compressed air supply lines, ensuring simple and reliable identification in the warehouse and during use.
Full tracking of industrial respirator usage times and deployments
