United Biscuits produces biscuits, cakes, and prepared foods in their Ashby, U.K. plant. This is a rigorous environment for any automatic ID technology because it is full of moisture, metal and variable temperatures. RFID is working successfully to control raw materials movement, and the weighing, mixing and baking processes. United Biscuits has mounted a tag on each bin, which provides a unique assigned number. The tags are read at the beginning of processes to ensure that no errors occur. Overhead displays signal to operators when everything is functioning correctly, or when a problem comes up.
