What is RFID ?

Radio Frequency Identification for tracking of Tagged items under a closed environment.

What Constitutes an RFID System?• One or more RF tags

• Two or more antennas

• One or more interrogators

• One or more host computers

• Appropriate software

Proposed Architecture- Features

• Easy to track the flow of inventory

• Gives real time Stock details online

• Can be integrated to any kind of database which is already existing

• Mandates proper stock management in stores

• Pilfering can be avoided• Easy to audit in real

time• Easy to identify and

Track the movement of stock between various internal departments.

Few Additional Features of our Implementation

Real Time Stock Identification through Handheld Readers

Real time Alerts for Unauthorized Transactions at Entrances and Exits

APHMHIDC 13

Value Addition and Conclusions• Adoption of Biometric Finger prints for Accessing the

Application software • Alerts should be acknowledged by authorized personnel only• Stock can be moved from one location to other using

authorized finger prints only

Warehouse Management Equipment The role of equipment in warehouse operations

• Reduce cost (labor + space)– enhance space utilization by, e.g.,

• enabling the exploitation of the vertical dimension of the facility• allowing for denser packing

– allow for more efficient order-picking by, e.g.,• increasing the density• supporting the automated transfer of material from storage to sorting and

Dispatch area

• Enhance responsiveness– increase the throughput of the facility, e.g.,

• increasing the SKU(Stock keeping Unit) density• establishing a more ergonomic environment/arrangement for the

warehouse operators• facilitating the parallelization of order picking• by parallelizing the tasks of order-picking and replenishment

Proposed CIVIL and Warehousing architecture at Scientific warehouse of Hyderabad and Mahbubnagar

> Four Layouts of the Warehouse are proposed following the International Warehouse Design standards> The Preferences were assigned to each of the layout considering the maximum space utilization as priority.
