In the ever-evolving landscape of aerospace and manufacturing, maintaining precision and efficiency in material tracking is essential. This project introduces an RFID-enabled system that seamlessly monitors the movement, storage, and processing of raw materials, sub-rolls, kits, and final assemblies. By leveraging RFID technology, the system ensures real-time tracking, automated data capture, and seamless inventory control across critical manufacturing stages—from freezer storage to autoclave processing and final assembly. The intelligent out-life monitoring prevents material expiration, ensuring compliance with quality standards while optimizing resource utilization. This solution enhances process accuracy, minimizes material wastage, and empowers teams with actionable insights, error reduction, and improved workflow automation, leading to a smarter, more efficient, and highly controlled production environment.
In industries where precision, compliance, and efficiency are critical, our RFID-enabled Smart Material Tracking System eliminates manual errors, enhances visibility, and optimizes resource utilization. By automating real-time tracking of raw materials, sub-rolls, kits, and final assemblies, it ensures seamless inventory control and proactive decision-making. With intelligent out-life monitoring, materials are tracked against temperature exposure limits, reducing waste and ensuring quality compliance. Seamless ERP integration, including SAP, improves process transparency and efficiency. Designed for high-precision industries like aerospace and defense, our system guarantees accurate tracking, reduced material wastage, and complete process control, leading to increased productivity and cost savings.

Built for aerospace, defense, and manufacturing
RFID Readers, Antennas, Handheld Scanners, and RFID Printers are installed at key checkpoints, while a centralized software system is deployed on a SQL-based server with real-time monitoring dashboards, seamlessly integrating with ERP/SAP for data synchronization.
Raw materials arrive at the facility and are assigned unique RFID tags at the unloading station, with the system recording tag details, material specifications, and timestamps for accurate tracking.
Tagged materials are stored in freezer conditions (-18°C), with RFID readers at entry and exit points tracking movement, while the system continuously monitors out-life by calculating the total time materials spend outside the freezer to prevent expiry.
When a roll is cut into sub-rolls, each new roll is assigned a child RFID tag linked to its parent material, ensuring complete traceability throughout the production process.
Multiple materials are grouped into a kit based on production requirements, validated by the RFID system to ensure the correct components are selected, and each kit is tagged and tracked as it moves to the next stage.
Operators work on kits at designated RFID-enabled workstations, where real-time tracking ensures accuracy, and alerts notify teams when out-life is close to expiration, preventing material wastage.
Before entering the autoclave, all parts are scanned and validated using RFID handheld devices, and the system checks out-life limits to ensure compliance before processing.
After the autoclave process is complete, parts are rescanned and tagged for further tracking, ensuring no expired material is used in the final assembly.
Finished parts are assembled into the final product, tracked using RFID, logged into the inventory system for visibility and audits, and RFID tags are removed before shipping if required.
