WELLPOINT RFID

RFID Tool Management

Tools go missing, kits go out incomplete, and somebody spends part of every day checking. WELLPOINT RFID tool management replaces the checking with a fixed read zone that knows which tagged tools are present, automatically.

The problem

  • Which tools are missing right now?
  • Is this kit complete before it goes out?
  • Who had the torque wrench last?
  • How much time do we spend on manual tool inventories?
  • Which shift keeps losing the same items?
  • Are calibrated tools where they should be?

How WELLPOINT solves it

  1. Tag the tools. UHF RFID tags, including on-metal tags and protective housings for tools that get dropped, oiled and heated.
  2. Install a WELLPOINT read zone. A fixed reader with antennas covering the tool crib, cabinet, workbench or vehicle interior.
  3. Presence is detected automatically. The read point continuously registers which tagged tools are inside the zone.
  4. See it in WELLPOINT.cloud. Present, missing and movement information on a dashboard, with export and API for your systems.

Why it is practical

  • Nobody has to scan anything. Presence is read, not reported.
  • Built-in cellular connectivity where used: the read point does not need the factory or fleet network. No local network required.
  • Purpose-built boxed solutions for tool cribs and vehicles are close to plug and play: mount, power, start.
  • Responsibility becomes visible without accusing anyone: the data shows when a tool left and did not return.
