MMK Launches RFID for Reusable Dunnage
17 January 2020 (09:11)
UrBC, Magnitogorsk, January 17, 2020. Magnitogorsk Iron & Steel Works (MMK) now keeps track of its reusable dunnage appliances with the help of RFID chips, the company’s Information & PR Department reports.
‘RFID chips came to replace the older technique of manually labelling an item with paint and barcodes. The goal is to achieve better accounting and inventory of MMK’s reusable dunnage appliances and to ensure end-to-end tracking of the items. This will help us meet our own accounting/tracking requirements and to handle claims with our metal goods customers in case the appliances don’t get returned,’ the company says.
Experience has shown that RFID chips are an efficient technology that helps scan information even in the complicated conditions of a metallurgical production site. The RFID infrastructure was designed by MMK Group’s member enterprise MMK InformService and ZAO Konsom SKS; the system is now at work in all the railcar departments and all the rolling shops at MMK.
