Establishing a network in factories has gradually become a demand, from building wired office networks and monitoring networks in factories to involving wireless office networks. Nowadays, more and more factories are implementing overall wireless access point coverage within the factory.
Most factories have warehouses and workshops, and with the popularization of intelligent terminals in factories, more and more devices will support connecting to WiFi to transmit data. The factory information system is also becoming increasingly popular, and every step of employee operation, production, and uploading of every component cannot be separated from the enterprise network.
Therefore, on the one hand, the network construction of the factory will provide transmission support for the factory's business; On the other hand, it will also provide employees with online services. The general factory network is divided into an office network and a monitoring network, and some even separate the employee/visitor network.
From traditional manual completion of everything, it has gradually shifted to machines replacing centralized procurement, statistics, and some repetitive operations. The overall development trend of factories will be towards intelligence and automation, gradually reducing human intervention, reducing operational errors, improving picking efficiency, and improving the input-output ratio.
Factories generally have warehouses, where scanning guns are now used to record product information such as inbound and outbound information and serial numbers. The number of scanning guns is generally not large, but workers will move around the warehouse with scanning guns.
If WiFi does not have full coverage or the roaming switching effect between access point is not good, it will lead to data upload failure or delay, which also affects the accuracy of the factory's data.
