Maruhachi Ceramics of America (MCA) is employing a TracerPlus RFID system to track the locations of 50,000 pallets loaded with products, and has reduced its inventory checking time from 172 hours for eight staff members to only 4 hours for a single person. The system—consisting of TracerPlus software provided by Portable Technology Solutions (PTS), and a Zebra Technologies handheld RFID reader and printer-encoder—also ensures that personnel know where a product is located when they need to load it onto a truck.
