The RFID Bottle Digitalization Solution
Why RFID Now?
SOFTWARE
Components of the Solution
BOTTLE DIGITIZATION
Historically, RFID technology was not a suitable solution for the BWS & perfumes markets due to their challenging environments. Liquids impact the RFID performance, making it complex to integrate in a production line. But we found a solution…
Solution fully integrable with your existing Management System.
HARDWARE
New solutions integrating advanced technology. Easy to implement solutions.
LABELS
Developed an optimized label for this specific environment with proved performance.
How can RFID help?
Digital Identity
Provide a unique digital identity to each bottle in a seamless and fast process.
Distribution Channel control
Make sure your products are present in authorized markets.
Production Visibility
Register unique digital identifier to obtain full-visibility of your production at bottle level.

Checkpoint Systems’ software solution designed to manage RFID solutions installed at the Distribution Centers. Main features:
RFID DC Controller
RFID devices management
Real-time data management
Data exchange and integration
DATA MANAGEMENT
Obtain RFID tag UIDs and associate them to the specific BoxID, providing visibility of the ítems at box level. Validate box composition comparing the read vs expected information*.
* Requires expected information to be provided via Box barcode or by an external application like a WMS/ERP.
DEVICES MANAGEMENT
Manage and control the RFID solution hardware to monitor its status and capture the data generated.
DATA EXCHANGE AND INTEGRATION
Manual export in CSV format. SFTP reporting. Automatic integration from/to external traceability platform via REST API.**
** Requires external traceability platform availability. NOT provided by Checkpoint.
Process
Integration of the RFID label behind the generic back label or in the DO one with the serial number.
Tag with RFID each bottle produced.
Read bottle’s RFID unique identifier in the production line
Integrate and capture this data
Associate the logistic information with each bottle’s RFID unique identifier
Uses Cases
Production details at bottle level
RFID provides a digital pointer to the unique bottle information. Thanks to the RFID, it is possible to associate production information at bottle level improving the
quality tracking.
D.O. Label Management
Provide a digital identity to your D.O. label, enabling a full-visibility during production. RFID Unique Identifier can be associated to the D.O. serial number in a separate process, before the D.O. label arrives at the production site.
Automatic digital register:
Authorized channels control
Thanks to the production details at bottle level, RFID enables a strict control on the distribution channel policies to identify products being sold in non-authorized markets or regions.
USES CASES
A bottle is identified in a
non-authorized market or region.
RFID UID is obtained
RFID UID information is received from the

Add product localization to an inventory performed with the RFID handheld currently in use.
Checkpoint creates a tracking system to the RFID handheld to know where the measurements were done.
With these measurements it is calculated the products position.
Minimize new hardware installed in the store add on system.
Schematic
The installation in the store consists of 3 components:
The RTLS server performs the processing and provides the final information to the Inventory Management System of the retailer. Information provided includes basic RFID position and assignation to fixtures.

Fixed radio with known position
Handheld Tags:
RTLS Server:
Server that receives the measurements made by the
handheld and the localization of the handheld tags.
Tag used to calculate their localization and it is attached to RFID handheld.
EPC is reported with the position in the map Timestamps of the last time the tag was read Best signal level reported to be used as an indicator of quality of measure
REAL CASE EXAMPLE
EPC Level Measurements
Why Product Localization?
RFID has enabled the opportunity to have high accuracy of stock level at store. Next step is to determine the position of the products in the store:
Each EPC is assigned to the closest piece of furniture Each piece of furniture is then reported on the list of EPCs that were assigned
