Under the traditional apparel management model, when apparel brand warehouses want to send new models to thousands of stores across the country, a large number of workers are always needed to hold a scanner gun to scan each piece for several days, and each piece of clothing needs to be picked up individually, looking for barcodes, and scanning at the right place. This is the unchanged daily routine of the clothing industry in the past two decades – manual, low-speed, and full of errors. However, a quiet technological revolution is changing all that. When labeled with RFID tags clothing boxes slowly through a seemingly ordinary channel, in an instant, all the goods in the box information on the completion of the collection, verification and uploading – this is the change brought about by the RFID tunnel machine.
From “piece-by-piece scanning” to “instant customs clearance”
01
Traditional clothing logistics, the most time-consuming part of the inventory than in and out of the warehouse. A medium-sized warehouse processing 100,000 pieces of goods, often requiring dozens of employees to work continuously for several days. the emergence of RFID tunnel machine, the process will be shortened to a few hours or even a few minutes.
The secret lies in the batch reading ability. RFID tunnel machine adopts high sensitivity reader and anti-jamming algorithms, when affixed with RFID tags of clothing through, regardless of the tag direction, regardless of the goods stacked, the system can be read in a few seconds at the same time all the information on hundreds of pieces of merchandise – style, color, size, unique serial number. After a well-known fast fashion brand introduced Rovinj Technology RFID tunnel machine system, the warehouse receiving efficiency increased by 300%, the accuracy rate of outbound review reached more than 99.95%, and the labor cost was reduced by 60%. What’s more, they finally realized the daily dynamic inventory, which is unimaginable in the barcode era.
Cracking the “black hole of inventory”

What is the biggest problem in the apparel industry? Inventory black hole. Under the traditional management mode, the system records 100 pieces of inventory, the actual shelves may be only 95 pieces – the 5 pieces may be placed in the wrong location, may be on the way to transfer, may have been lost.
RFID technology allows each piece of clothing has a unique “digital ID”. From the warehouse to the store, and then to the hands of consumers, the whole chain can be visualized and controlled. When the inventory accuracy rate from the industry average of 70% jumped to 99.9%, bringing not only the reduction of loss, but also the reconstruction of the entire business model. Omni-channel retailing becomes possible. Consumers order online, the system can accurately locate the exact inventory of the nearest store to achieve rapid delivery; inter-store allocation no longer rely on experience and guesswork, but based on real-time data decision-making; best-selling models of replenishment response time shortened by more than 60%.
RFID Tunneling Machine’s Full Chain Empowerment

The application of this technology has been extended to every aspect of the apparel value chain: at the production end, finished products are instantly matched with quality inspection and packing through RFID tunnel machines, realizing seamless docking of production data and logistics data. At the store end, small RFID tunnel equipment allows receiving time to be shortened by more than 80%, and store staff can have more time to serve customers. RFID intelligent fitting terminal can also be introduced in the fitting room, when the customer enters with more than one item, the system automatically recognizes and recommends the matching, to enhance the rate of connected sales. On the logistics side, the whole box of clothing can be inspected without opening the box, and the efficiency of return processing can be improved several times, accelerating the return of goods to the shelves for the second time.RFID tunnel machine can be integrated with the enterprise ERP, WMS and other systems, automatically uploading the outgoing and incoming data, and generating visualization reports. Managers can monitor the inventory status at any time through the cloud platform, realizing the leap from “manual record” to “full process automation”.
