The intention of this project funded by Daimler Chrysler AG was to ensure the supply process and gain further transparency within the automotive supply chain. To achieve this, the LogDynamics Lab at BIBA conducted a series of tests concerning the identification of metal transport items and plastic boxes containing metal on forklifts and trucks. An RFID gate equipped with six different UHF readers was built and tested. The identification of returnable metal transport items on forklifts with specialized transponders attached showed very good results, whereas plastic boxes containing metal equipped with RFID smart labels did not show the needed read rates.
