Why RF Scanning Systems Are A Basic Requirement For Warehousing/3PL Logistics

As your operations grow, it becomes essential to add a technology stack that streamlines your workflows and helps multiple departments collaborate. One such aspect includes RF scanning that allows you to generate, manage, audit the product data electronically. These tasks require businesses to have accurate information of each inventory item stored, their location, availability of free space, and trackability of the items across your storage facility. Thus RF scanners provide you with a quick, convenient, and reliable solution to register and trace stock throughout your organization.

Which Type Of Scanners Are Used By Warehouses And Logistics Companies?
Barcode, And QR Code Scanners

These are the most economical options as they use paper-based printing material. Also, the rate of printing is much higher, and the barcode scanners provide high interoperability since they have been a part of the global supply chain for decades now. The only downside of these scanners is the need for close proximity for scanning, and the condition of barcodes/QR codes should be in good condition.

RFID, NFC Scanners

These are technically advanced scanners that require you to use RFID tags/NFC cards to mark the inventory items. These scanners provide better-operating conditions as you can scan the packages from a larger distance at a much higher rate.

Mobile-App Based Scanners

Many businesses prefer integrating smartphone camera-based scanners with their 3PL Dynamics and Dynamics 365 software solutions to improve ease of working and enable their employees to update the database on the go. PL Solutions provides you with technical support to implement mobile app-based scanning as required.

Which Aspects Are Considered For Implementing RF And Barcode Scanning Solutions?
Compatibility Of The RF Tags/Barcodes With Standardization Authorities And Members Of Your Supply Chains

It is necessary that the barcode and RFID scanning equipment is compatible with the standards laid down by governing bodies at the regional and international levels. This applies equally to ensuring compatibility with your suppliers and distributors to ensure that the data fidelity isn’t compromised and your operations are executed without any technical errors.
