German manufacturer Rehau is employing radio frequency identification technology to track the automotive bumpers it fabricates at its eight global facilities, thereby increasing the efficiency of its processes, from injection molding to final fabrication, and to quickly identify any problems related to a particular customer’s order. The system tracks the parts through injection molding, painting and fabrication, in order to record each process completed for every bumper. Learn how RFID is being used to find where each item is located during the fabrication or painting process, thus preventing mistakes that could otherwise lead to a product for a specific order being fabricated incorrectly.
