RFID Utilization Project Progress and Achievement Collection System

Recently, Takaya Corporation's products and technologies were featured in the Okayama Prefecture special edition of the industrial information site "Biz-Nova," operated by Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun. The article highlights the following key products from our company. Please take a look at the related links below. ■ Autonomous RFID Reader (IC Tag Performance Collection Terminal) The autonomous RFID reader developed by the RF Division is a touch panel terminal that can complete the reading, verification, and transmission of IC tags on-site. By linking with the cloud service "Takaya IoT Platform," it visualizes operational data from all locations in real-time, contributing to the prevention of human errors, increased productivity, and process improvement. ■ Flying Probe Type PCB Inspection System "APT-T400J" The new product "APT-T400J" from the Industrial Equipment Division is a model that inherits the flying probe technology accumulated over many years while achieving a more accessible price range. It flexibly accommodates small-batch production without the need for fixtures and is equipped with a 4-axis configuration suitable for high-density mounting and appearance inspection functions, providing an inspection solution that contributes to quality improvement and production efficiency.

The December 23, 2024 issue of the Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun national edition features a special page on Okayama Prefecture, which includes an introduction article about Takaya Corporation's RF Division. Please take a look. Below, you can view it in PDF format on the Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun's website.

Takaya Corporation will begin selling the cloud service "RFID Work Performance Collection System." This service enables data collection and accumulation from RFID readers, as well as the visualization of the collected data through the cloud. In recent years, with the promotion of work style reforms, there has been an increasing demand for improved productivity and correction of long working hours. Companies need to accurately grasp the actual working hours and content of their employees, but the accuracy of data collection remains unclear. This is particularly challenging in the manufacturing industry, where handwritten forms are often used, leading to issues such as omissions and errors that make it difficult to obtain accurate performance information. In response to this situation, our company has developed the "RFID Work Performance Collection System," which allows performance data to be transmitted simply by placing an RFID tag on an autonomous RFID reader. Since there is no need to record data each time work begins or is completed, workers can naturally and accurately record their working hours without being conscious of it. The ease of collecting performance data allows for more time to be dedicated to data analysis, enabling effective use of this information for reviewing personnel allocation and understanding and improving the status of each process as part of profit improvement efforts.
