Free flow at Distribution and Logistic centres with TagMaster's Long Range RFID solutions.

A distribution centre is a very busy place, and everything has to run without any delays. To have a large number of trucks enter and exit such a place smoothly has its challenges. When approaching, the truck has to stop and identify itself. This takes time, is disruptive and increases cost, fuel consumption and pollution. TagMaster offers a solution that eliminates these problems and gives all approved vehicles free flow.

Installer and End User

Another aspect when an Installer or Integrator is planning the installation of an access solution in a logistics centre or a port, is to think about the complexity of the solution. The installer must consider the time it takes to install it, as well as the functionality, ease of use and the cost of ownership for the end user.

The installer wants an easy to understand, easy to install solution and the end user just wants it to work flawlessly for many, many years at a low cost. It must be a win-win situation, and this is why TagMaster Long Range Readers are the perfect choice.

Entry and Access Control

All inbound and outbound trucks are identified with TagMaster's superior RFID Readers which will read vehicles coming and leaving the area within 14m range. The readers capture secure data from passing tags and authenticates that it is a valid TagMaster tag. The data is forwarded to a software application hosted on a local server. It is also possible to combine RFID Long Range Readers with ANPR cameras (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) to register all in and outbound traffic.

Overview and security

Large distribution centres or industrial compounds like ports or freight terminals have strict requirements when it comes to whom can access the area, monitor the whereabouts of the vehicle when in the area, and analyse and direct the traffic flow. TagMaster's RFID Long Distance Readers and ANPR cameras are very suitable technologies to provide secure access and to monitor and analyse the movements of vehicles or use of resources in large logistic centres.

Directional information

With TagMaster Long Distance Readers, trucks are monitored, and directional information can be provided to the driver, such as what lane, terminal or Ship-to-shore Gantry Crane to go to, all based on trucks being identified entering or moving within the compound. This enables a secure and efficient flow of traffic.

Take it to the next level with ANPR cameras

Efficient management of vehicles and resources can be secured with sophisticated ANPR cameras and analytics software. For example, statistics can show the busiest time of the day to help with staff allocation or improve the planning. The software can also report dwell times, waiting or loading and unloading time and be a part of the efforts to reduce emissions.
