Abstract

In the past, the manufacturing data related to workpieces and equipment in plants acquired was not real time which has heavily hampered the optimal decision-making on plant production. In this paper, an RFID-based manufacturing data tracking system (RFID-MDTS) is designed to help users to collect the all kinds of data and further track them in real time. Through retrieving and analyzing the useful data, all kinds of users in the plants can guarantee to execute their operations in both time saving and cost effective manner. In this manufacturing data tracking system, the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is utilized to acquire the data derived from the plant in real time. In order to provide the correspondent data for different users, a time-dependent instantiated template (TIT) model is built to visually describe and supply the concrete data. For demonstrating the validity of the proposed system, a snapshot of running procedure of the prototype is presented which following some concluding remarks.
