Inkampani yenethiwekhi yomhlaba wonke yakha i-RFID ezimotweni ezingu-60,000 kulo nyaka—kanye nezingu-40,000 ngonyaka ozayo—ukuze ithole ngokuzenzekelayo izigidi zamaphakheji amakiwe.
Ukukhishwa kuyingxenye yombono wenkampani yomhlaba wonke wamaphakheji ahlakaniphile axhumana ngendawo yawo njengoba ehamba phakathi komthumeli nalapho aya khona.
Ngemva kokwakha ukusebenza kokufunda kwe-RFID kumasayithi okusabalalisa angaphezu kwe-1,000 kunethiwekhi yayo yonkana, ilandelela izigidi “zamaphakheji ahlakaniphile” nsuku zonke, inkampani yezokuthutha yomhlaba wonke i-UPS inweba isixazululo sayo se-Smart Package Smart Facility (SPSF).

I-UPS isemkhankasweni kuleli hlobo lokuhlomisa wonke amaloli ayo ansundu ukuthi afunde amaphakheji amakiwe e-RFID. Zingu-60,000 izimoto ezizosebenza nobuchwepheshe ekupheleni konyaka, kanti ezinye ezilinganiselwa ku-40,000 zizongena ohlelweni ngo-2025.

Uhlelo lwe-SPSF lwaqala ngaphambi kwalolu bhubhane ngokuhlela, ukusungula izinto ezintsha kanye nokuhlola amaphakheji ahlakaniphile. Namuhla, iningi lezikhungo ze-UPS zifakwe abafundi be-RFID futhi amathegi asetshenziswa kumaphakheji njengoba etholwa. Ilebula yephakheji ngayinye ixhunywe olwazini oluyinhloko mayelana nendawo yephakheji.

Isikhungo sokuhlunga se-UPS esimaphakathi sinamakhilomitha angaba ngu-155 wamabhande okuthutha, ahlela amaphakheji angaphezu kwezigidi ezine nsuku zonke. Ukusebenza okungenazihibe kudinga ukulandelela, umzila kanye nokubeka phambili amaphakheji. Ngokwakha ubuchwepheshe bezinzwa be-RFID ezikhungweni zayo, inkampani isuse ukuskena kwamakhodi amabhakhodi okuyizigidi ezingama-20 ekusebenzeni kwansuku zonke.

Embonini ye-RFID, umthamo omkhulu we-UPS wamaphakheji athunyelwa nsuku zonke ungenza lesi sinyathelo sibe ukuqaliswa okukhulu kakhulu kobuchwepheshe be-UHF RAIN RFID kuze kube manje.
