Intermec RFID Technology Helps Japan Freight Railway Improve Operating Efficiencies
Overview To meet the growing transport needs of Japan's businesses, JR Freight maintains more than 120 terminals in Japan, managing 8,000 rail wagons and 100,000 railway containers. Keeping track of hundreds - even thousands - of containers has involved tedious, time-consuming manual labor. JR Freight wanted to find a better way to track those containers, especially actual loading arrangement of containers on rail wagons. It implemented a RFID tracking system with equipment from Sharp that incorporates Intellitag RFID tag technology from Intermec.
