TESTING PROCESS / SCOPE OF WORK

 

Although the following list should be used as a guideline only, it clearly represents the challenges of deploying RFID effectively in any supply chain scenario.
 
 Determine optimized label placement based on requirements
 Determine effects of materials in food stuff and manufactured goods
 Determine effects of indoor/outdoor humidity levels on packaging
 Determine label types based on client's needs
 Determine level of label placement and orientation (pallet, case and/or item)
 Test manual and automatic label application during various phases
 Determine antenna distance in relation to correct reads (detect null spots and shadowing)
 Determine antenna configuration, to overcome system or environmental limitations
 Perform reader protocols and communications testing as per the manufacturer
 tolerances between readers and labels and their performance specifications
 Determine through-put speeds of pallets, cartons or items on forklifts, jacks or conveyors
 Test for signal interference from other RF devices and identify shielding characteristics
 Determine software device and data management architectures
 Evaluate efficiencies and robustness with existing software or Ship2save OMS

Testing is conducted at different available reader frequencies: low-frequency (125/134 KHz); high-frequency (13.56 MHz); ultra high-frequency (850-950 MHz); and super high-frequency or microwave (2.4 GHz).
