Read-point and portal design
Dock doors, conveyor tunnels, handheld zones and shelf-level reading, each specified with antenna type, angle, height and power to hit a defined read rate.
RFID Solutions
RFID System Design & Transformation
Read-point architecture, RF modelling and middleware design — plus the process redesign that turns tag reads into business outcomes.
A system designed around your process, integrated into your ERP, and engineered for the read rate the business case assumed.
What we deliver
RF modelling and interference planning
Field mapping so adjacent portals do not read each other's stock, and so metal racking and reinforced concrete are accounted for rather than discovered on go-live day.
Middleware and event handling
Filtering, de-duplication, direction detection and business-rule logic, so your ERP receives clean transactions instead of a raw firehose of reads.
ERP and WMS integration
API, middleware or database-level integration into SAP, Oracle, Dynamics, Odoo or your in-house platform, with reconciliation and exception handling designed in.
Design is where read rates are decided
Two deployments with identical hardware can perform completely differently. The difference is antenna polarisation, mounting height, portal geometry, power settings, tag orientation and how the middleware handles duplicate and phantom reads. That is design work, and it is the part most integrators skip.
How we work
-
01
Process mapping
Current-state and target-state workflow, so the design serves the process rather than the other way round.
-
02
Architecture
Read points, network, middleware, and the integration contract with your existing systems.
-
03
Pilot build
One zone or one line built and measured against the target read rate before the rollout is committed.
-
04
Rollout and handover
Phased deployment with documentation, as-built drawings and training for the team who will run it.
/01
99.9%
Target read accuracy designed and measured, not assumed
/02
100%
Deployments integrated into an existing ERP or WMS
Frequently asked questions
Can RFID work around metal and liquids?
Yes, with the right tag and design. On-metal tags use a spacer or ground plane so the metal becomes part of the antenna rather than detuning it.
Will this integrate with SAP?
Yes. We integrate through whatever interface your SAP landscape exposes — RFC/BAPI, OData, IDoc, or a middleware layer.
How do you stop a portal reading stock that is just parked nearby?
Through a combination of physical design and software logic: antenna polarisation and shielding to shape the read field, power tuning, and direction-of-travel detection in the middleware so an item is only counted when it genuinely crosses the portal.
