RFID Tag Tracks Tools in Real Time

You know that torque wrench you misplace on a regular basis? You’d have better luck keeping track of it if it were equipped with Murata Electronics’ LXTBKZMCMG-010 RFID tag, which is designed to be placed directly on metal objects, such as surgical tools. The solution can be incorporated into any device’s tool tracking system to quickly determine a specific item’s usage and warranty status, and to assign user accountability. These features help improve loss prevention, eliminate time searching for specific tools, and provide real-time data analytics to key stakeholders such as operations, plant managers, or users in the field.
