Passive RFID Tags
Cost-effective Technology for Tracking Trailers and Shipments
PINC Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) Tags bring
yard management into the 21st century. The new compact footprint and nearly indestructible case house the
latest in passive RFID technology. The PINC Permanent
and Temporary RFID Tags make tracking assets in the
yard easier than ever before. The latest PINC RFID Tags
feature extreme impact resistance and wide temperature
range ratings, for improved location accuracy.
The First Step to Yard Visibility
PINC RFID Tags enhance real-time visibility of trailers and
shipments within the PINC Advanced Yard Management
System (YMS). As a trailer enters the yard, a PINC RFID
Reader scans the encoded information and immediately
uploads the data to the PINC YMS server to confirm the
trailer. PINC YMS provides up-to-the-minute visibility for
assets in an easy to use cloud-based, web application.
Users view tagged trailers location and aging status
within the yard – secure anywhere, anytime access.
RFID vs. Barcode Technology
PINC RFID Tags work in any type of weather – rain, snow,
sleet, and mud. Mud is the enemy of barcode based tags
because it can obscure the view of the number. PINC
only uses the barcode to identify the tag during registrarion, and then relies on RFID technology for tracking the
trailer in the yard.
INC
Easy to Install and Register
PINC RFID Tags are easy to install. PINC Temporary RFID
Tags use two powerful magnets to securely attach them
to a trailer. Built in handles make removing them easy.
Permanent RFID Tags are attached using the recommended hardware and drill settings.
Next, to register the PINC RFID Tag, simply scan the Quick
Response (QR) label on any smart phone or tablet and
complete the fields on the registration web site. Once
registered, the Standard Carrier Alpha Code (SCAC) code
and trailer stay together, independent of random yard
designations. You can now reliably track the trailer on
your PINC Solutions web application.
Accurate, Fast Check-in and Check-out Processes
PINC Permanent RFID Tags are used by carriers and
private fleets that enter the same yards frequently.
When installed on a trailer, PINC Permanent Tags provide
consistent data across the fleet, accelerate check-in, and
check-out, and enable managers and carriers to gain
reliable visibility to trailers across multiple locations.
Temporary RFID Tags enable tracking of all other trailers.
With accurate and reliable data collection, error-free
entry processes, and the elimination of lag time and
human error, the PINC RFID Tags deliver visibility you can
depend on.
