RFID tags speed component leak testing

By Paul Dvorak | December 13, 2011

An RFID chip on a test part can store its serial number, part number, lot number, the build plant and production line, date of manufacture, and lots more.

Manufacturers of leak proof components can use RFID tags for part identification and information tracking. The electronic label system with standard and custom components os tailored to application requirements. Custom elements of Uson RFID tags streamline parts processing and help manage test data while cutting overall production cost.

“The potential of Uson’s custom RFID tags technology to help manufacturers get better performance from their leak detection equipment is enormous,” says Joe Pustka, a manager of Uson’s technical support team that helped pioneer the custom RFID tags.

For starts, an RFID chip residing on a test part can store serial number, part number, lot number, the build plant and production line, date of manufacture, and lots more. The custom RFID tags have been especially helpful to manufacturers of disposable parts that work together with a module or console. In these applications, when parts are connected to the console the RFID tags let it know exactly what is connected to it and what the physical parameters required for the test solution to proceed. With RFID tags such as these, any business manufacturing products that need leak testing can create smart linking to end-user consumers, ensuring that the supply chain gets each customer the product with correct specifications.”

Uson provides specifications for custom RFID tags with both its Leak Detector Express Proposal and Leak Detection Equipment Custom Application Proposal services upon request and at no charge. Uson’s no-cost training courses on state-of-the-art leak detection  include discussion of best practices for parts identification using RFID tags, bar coding, and other techniques used for more efficient production lines.
