SAVR Partners with HOLT CAT, RFID For Tools In The Game Plan
If you think tools get lost in your home, just imagine how they get lost in a gigantic warehouse.
Which is why the idea of tagging those fix-it gadgets is catching on.
Hence, SAVR Communications is partnering with HOLT CAT to bring RFID technology to the tool room. Caterpillar dealer HOLT CAT will rely on an RFID-based tool room tagging system to save thousands – improving inventory control, automating usage record-keeping, enhancing theft detection, and doing all the great stuff RFID is known to do.
RFID Partnership: RFID-Enabled Tool Room For Automated Inventory Control
SAVR Communications partners with HOLT CAT to bring RFID technology to the tool room. HOLT CAT, one of the largest Caterpillar dealers in the world, will rely on an RFID-based tool room solution to improve inventory control, automate usage record keeping, and provide enhanced theft detection / deterrence.
With better security and simplified tool tracking, HOLT CAT expects to save $30,000 in lost tooling per location within the first year alone. The system features UHF technology and an array of unique Gen2 tag solutions to accommodate the harsh environment. Project challenges include tagging dirty metal tools in sizes that range from small drill bits to heavy impact wrenches. All will be RFID tagged for easy identification. Employee access is controlled with RFID badges. Data handling and user interface can be a stand-alone function or integrated into existing applications such as the ACCUTRACKER system – preferred by HOLT CAT.
