Impinj announced that French jeweler CLEOR has implemented Impinj RFID technology as part of a chain-wide solution aimed to improve inventory accuracy.
The RFID solution, developed by Frequentiel and Tageos, employs multiple read points throughout the supply chain including automated shipment receiving, delivery verification and on-shelf inventory.
Impinj Speedway Revolution readers with Tageos Cube antennas read incoming bags containing hundreds of pieces of RFID tagged jewelry. Store employees verify receipt of jewelry packed in small plastic bags using Speedway Revolution readers and Tageos mat antennas. Then, employees use handheld readers based on Impinj Indy reader chips and Tageos paddle antennas to frequently inventory items on store shelves.
A process that once consumed days now requires only a few hours, and reduces damage by eliminating physical handling of jewelry.
