Handheld and Mobile Devices

Fixed position scanning devices are great for bulk scanning and tracking movement inside and outside a facility, but many supply chain and warehouse operations require on-the-go scanning and operations process that can only be completed with handheld and mobile devices. 

These devices come in many form factors and can be used in both RFID and GPS applications to provide access to location data or common workflow activities like commissioning a tag.

Interius SaaS

Interius is a SaaS tool, 100% cloud-based and built on Microsoft architecture, programmed and maintained by the team at Surgere.

Interius is available to all Surgere clients, providing always-on access to your supply chain metrics, reports and insights that provide real-time information and alerts for exactly the intelligence you need.

Overhead and Ceiling Readers

With floor space in a warehouse becoming increasingly critical and a demand for flexibility in production lines and storage processes, overhead, ceiling-mounted readers have become a valued option in warehouse manufacturing environments.

Overhead readers are often used with RFID technology to track tagged assets as they move throughout a facility. Similar to portal or dock door readers, overhead readers can track inbound and outbound asset or material movement, but overhead readers have the added advantage of tracking directionality and movement in multiple zones of a facility.

With the ability to scan hundreds of assets in seconds, overhead readers are often chosen for clients that need flexibility across an entire zone or floor space while requiring little to no human intervention to continuously operate.

Overhead readers are often made from a plastic shell that allows for reliable RFID signal transmission and reception.

Portal and Dock Door

Portal and dock door scanning devices are usually made up of one scanning device for each side of the dock door or choke point that you want to track and understand movement of assets through. The devices are installed into concrete or other solid substrate that can support the necessary required installation hardware.

These devices are used to track inbound and outbound assets with RFID tags, and their primary advantage is bulk or mass scanning of those assets so any human intervention is minimal or non-existent. This makes tasks like loading and unloading a truck simple while greatly reducing any error in the tracking and processing of data.

Sensors and Tags

Sensors and tag technology have advanced significantly since the mid-2000’s. Today’s IoT technology is not only connected to the internet, but can – sometimes – be upgraded over time to ensure you have the latest and greatest features in place to scan and process data related to your assets, materials and finished goods.

Every warehouse, production facility and storage process is unique, so there is no single solution for every need, but Surgere’s teams have seen multiple types of facilities and company operations in addition to hearing about many business challenges and data needs. This experience allows us to specify and recommend a single technology or layered, multi-technology solutions.
