Dell Increases Production Efficiency With ICODE

Overview The second largest computer retailer in the Asia-Pacific region, Dell Computers supplies a range of desktop PCs, notebooks and servers for the huge Chinese computer market. However, when it first established its manufacturing, sales and support facilities in Xiamen, the company quickly noticed bottlenecks occurring within its logistics and distribution operations due to the lack of an automated data capture system. Weighing up the options, Dell decided to upgrade its logistics control with an RFID system that offered proven benefits over the alternative barcode solutions. When Dell wanted to improve the productivity, efficiency and the visibility of its supply chain and inventory tracking procedures, it opted for an I?CODE-based RFID system from Escort Memory Systems (EMS).
