Frequently Asked Questions
What level of visibility is provided with RFID?
Xemelgo can tell you in exactly which building, department, and even which workbench a work order is at, when it arrived, and for how long it was there.
Most customers begin their RFID journey with a starter kit to deploy RFID readers at choke points and prominent zones within the facility. Handheld readers can then be used to pinpoint the exact location of work orders on the floor.
How are RFID tags used to track work orders?
If you’re using paper job travelers today, the easiest way to get started is to apply an RFID tag to your existing paper work orders. If your facility is already paperless, kudos! – Temporary or permanent RFID tags can be applied directly to the part to complement existing labels.
Xemelgo and our best-in-class partners have helped customers tag and track their work in progress in all sorts of environments from ESD-safe clean rooms to machine shops.
Can Xemelgo integrate with existing ERP systems?
Absolutely, but it’s not required. Xemelgo is ERP vendor agnostic and can be fully integrated with existing business systems, completely standalone, or somewhere in between.
Most Xemelgo customers recognize tremendous value immediately without with ERP integration. When integrated, Xemelgo further complements your existing business systems with an intuitive user interface and further automation of manual data entry, and your ERP remains your single source of truth.
How does RFID improve productivity on the shop floor?
What gets measured gets worked. Xemelgo empowers everyone from the plant manager to support staff and operators with unprecedented visibility into key priorities and department performance so they can manage and work proactively.
In addition to making work and process flow visible, Xemelgo has helped customers save countless hours of time spent searching for missing orders and hot jobs, eliminated manual data entry and report pulling, and reduced meeting time needed to manage production.
