Operation process control & production control
Industry 4.0 is the digital networking of machines, raw materials, products and people. The aim is to sustainably increase productivity, safety and efficiency. The topic is gaining momentum with the EU Commission's Green Deal, which has launched the Digital Product Passport (DPP). The DPP is intended to map all economic processes along the value chain in a transparent and sustainable manner.
In the context of DPP and Industry 4.0, RFID/NFC technology is the most important cross-sectional technology. Only with its help is the realization of the smart factory possible.

Advantages compared to conventional methods
- Durability: Robust and resistant for industrial use
- Readability: No smudging, no fading, soiling does not play a role when reading
- Intelligence: Smart components "think" and simplify production control
- Memory: Data can be stored decentrally directly on the chip
- Accuracy: Unique identification of components reduces process errors
Reference projects from smart-TEC
Soldering process: The soldering process has been optimized using a temperature-resistant RFID tag on the soldering frame to enable a fully automated production process - from placing the frame to the finished product
Building materials management: The producer of building materials optimizes its logistics process chain with an RFID-supported system solution to ensure end-to-end transparency for filling and transport.
Coin minting: With the help of RFID, the quantity of coins is tracked, documented and processed according to a defined process - seamlessly from goods receipt to packaging.
