Application of Radio Frequency Identification to the Manufacturing Execution System

[[abstract]]MES與ERP是製造業兩大關鍵資訊系統，尤其MES更是扮演著生產工廠與營運中心溝通橋樑的角色，過往，MES多半透過條碼技術來蒐集生產現場的所有資訊，如今隨著RFID技術成熟發展，使用RFID標籤取代條碼，縮減製造人力成本以及提升效率，成為製造業最新發展趨勢。 換句話說，透過自動化生產設備與資訊系統，降低人工參與的比重，進而提升作業效率與降低成本，已經變成台灣企業強化競爭力的最佳管道，這也讓整合RFID的製造執行系統(Manufacturing Execution System；MES)變得越來越重要。[[abstract]]MES and ERP are two key manufacturing information systems especially MES plays an important role as a bridge between the manufacturing plant and the operation center In the past MES mostly through barcode technology to collect all the information of the production site As now with the development of RFID technology RFID tags is used to replace the bar code to reduce labor costs and improve manufacturing efficiency and become the latest industry trends In other words through the automated production equipment and information systems to reduce the proportion of labor participation thereby enhancing operational efficiency and reducing costs have become the best way for Taiwan enterprises to strengthen competitiveness It also allows that the integration of RFID in Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) becomes increasingly importan
