Home » Rolling On – RFID Ensures Production Traceability and Error Prevention
Tyre manufacturing is a complex process where raw materials such as rubber, carbon black and chemicals produce numerous specialised components that are assembled and cured.
Traceability of various parts is an important quality function for Nokian Tyres. Traceability requires to know the history of each tyre and the components it is built from. Traditionally tracking processes have been manual which causes more errors, inaccuracy and slowness.
Many raw materials and components out of which the tires are made, look almost identical to each other. Wrong material inputs are possible due to human errors. One false material input at an early phase of the tire production can have an effect to wide range of products and many individual tires. Inaccurate manual process causes a need to have a big safety margin for production recalls.
The RFID implementation has provided Nokian Tyres with robust production traceability and automated error prevention. The system ensures real-time, accurate, and automated monitoring and steering of production featuring:
