Shanghai Tobacco Beijing Cigarette Factory / Tobacco manufacturing and warehousing
RFID-linked production and warehouse operations at Shanghai Tobacco
Customer deployment reference / SEUIC (Dongji) hardware platform
Shanghai Tobacco Beijing Cigarette Factory used a CRUISE2U 5G RFID terminal to connect tobacco sourcing, production, warehousing and distribution records in one operating workflow.
Case Studies
Design the mobile workflow before locking the device SKU.
Manual operations, low data accuracy and weak coordination between warehouse activity and production processes limited operational visibility.
Workflow solutions
Priority workflows
A detachable RFID handle supports data capture across production and warehouse scenarios, while IP67 protection and 5G plus Wi-Fi 6 support continuous data collection in dusty or humid environments.

Solution planning sequence
Solution planning sequence
A reliable deployment combines the right capture method, application behavior, connectivity, ergonomics, charging and replacement process. Solution design keeps those choices connected.
01 / Capture source and production events
Read RFID and barcode events from tobacco sourcing through production.
Connects material movement and production records in one traceability chain.
02 / Verify warehouse movement
Use the detachable RFID configuration for warehouse data collection.
Supports inventory and movement activity without changing the basic work process.
03 / Synchronize operations
Transmit data over 5G or Wi-Fi 6 as work is completed.
Keeps production and warehouse teams working from current operational records.
04 / Work in industrial conditions
Apply rugged hardware protection to dusty and humid work areas.
Matches the capture layer to the physical environment as well as the data requirement.
Case Studies
Outcome-led scope
Solution pages will recommend capabilities first. Exact models remain replaceable until testing confirms the best fit.
Order processing
30% faster processing per order.
Inventory counting
50% improvement in inventory counting efficiency.
Operational data
99.8% data accuracy through successful scan performance.
Engineering and supply services
Five service layers for a more predictable device program.
RuggedLayer organizes access to multiple manufacturers into a consistent engagement model. Each layer has a defined input, deliverable and evidence boundary. Hardware margin, validation, staging, project management and lifecycle support are distinct value streams. Scope and fees depend on the project.
Select
Material handlers, production operators, warehouse teams, inventory controllers and traceability administrators.
Validate
Barcode and UHF RFID events for source material, production movement, warehouse location, inventory and order handling.
Deploy
Production traceability, MES, WMS, order processing, inventory reconciliation and managed device services.
Commercial boundaries
Dust, humidity, dense inventory, detachable RFID use, 5G or Wi-Fi 6 coverage and strict traceability records.
A clear handoff at every layer
Five service layers for a more predictable device program.
Hardware margin, validation, staging, project management and lifecycle support are distinct value streams. Scope and fees depend on the project.
Operator application
Station-aware screens present the work order, material, operation, quality and exception actions needed at that point in production.
Commercial boundariesRuggedLayer maps the device workflow and validates the production application; the customer or MES owner controls routing and manufacturing rules.
Industrial capture layer
Rugged mobile or fixed capture is selected around code type, distance, surface, lighting, gloves, shift pattern and physical mounting or handling.
Commercial boundariesRuggedLayer owns the agreed device, scanner, accessory, configuration and sample-validation scope.
Plant connectivity
Plant Wi-Fi, private cellular or wired station links carry scan and process events with controlled retry and clear offline rules.
Commercial boundariesRuggedLayer validates device-side connectivity and application recovery; plant radio and server infrastructure remain customer-owned unless separately included.
MES, WMS and quality systems
Enterprise systems remain authoritative for work orders, bills of material, inventory, process history, nonconformance and quality release.
Commercial boundariesRuggedLayer reviews event payloads and integration behavior in scope; the system owner approves production transactions and exception rules.
Publication gate
Comparable device evidence with method, version and limitations.
The Test Lab defines what must be recorded before a manufacturer reference or RuggedLayer observation can support a purchase or deployment decision.
Publication gate
- 01
RFID batch count differs from the expected warehouse set.
Keep the session unposted, separate missing and unexpected tags and require recount or item-level verification.
- 02
A material event is scanned against the wrong production order or process.
Block the transaction and require supervisor resolution before the material status changes.
- 03
The network drops during a production or inventory task.
Queue signed events locally with visible sync state and idempotent submission after reconnect.
How to read the references
Traceability
Representative materials retain source, production, warehouse and order history across the approved transaction chain.
RFID accuracy
The defined count method reaches the approved expected-tag rate and adjacent-zone leakage threshold.
Industrial use
Device, detachable reader, charging and connectivity complete the dust, humidity and shift profile.
Data integrity
Duplicate, offline, mismatched-order and count-variance events all reconcile without silent status changes.
A clear handoff at every layer
Choose the first service layer.
A short requirement review will identify whether selection, validation or customization comes first.
01 / Discover
A station-by-station event map covering codes, surfaces, cycle time, MES ownership, operators, environment and rework paths.
02 / Line-side validation
Real samples tested at working distance, angle, lighting, gloves, scan frequency, network conditions and shift duration.
03 / Bounded production pilot
One line, station group or warehouse zone with baseline data, controlled fallbacks and production-owner sign-off.
04 / Standardize and deploy
Approved hardware and configuration, station or charging plan, enrollment package, operator training, spares and change control.
