Manufacturer Of Frozen And Refrigerated Foods Meets RFID Compliance Mandates Using The Printronix SLPA7000e Printer

As a large U.S.-based manufacturer of both frozen and refrigerated foods, the company produces thousands of different products for a wide range of customers including Wal-Mart and other retailers. In order to meet the Wal-Mart RFID mandate, the company implemented a process-driven approach using its existing Ethernet-based host system network to interface with its enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, eliminating the need for a third-party integrator. Having had extensive experience with automated barcode manufacturing processes using non-RFID print and apply systems, the company's IT personnel identified the need for an application that would replace current systems with RFID-enabled applications, and turned to Printronix for help in choosing an Ethernet-enabled Smart Label Printer Applicator.
