A research on integrated application of RFID-based lean manufacturing

The discrete manufacturing workshops usually suffer from a bottleneck of capturing and collection of real-time field information, which is important for improving reactivity capability of production system, during they organize production adopting JIT (Just-In-Time) mode. As a rapid, real-time, accurate information collection tools, RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) improved JIT production to a great extent. This paper proposes an approach of Kanban management based on RFID, and designs the framework of RFID-based Kanban management information system. A prototype system is finished in detail eventually.
