Tool tracking that saves money.

In any shop, tools are how the job gets done — and one missing tool can bring work to a stop. A comprehensive RFID tool-tracking solution on AssetWorx! keeps every tool accounted for.

Why it matters

One missing tool stops the job.

Lost, misplaced, and walked-off tools cost real money — in replacement, in downtime, and in the scramble to find them. RFID makes every tool self-reporting, so a cycle count takes minutes and a missing tool is obvious immediately.

Passive RFID

Tool-crib checkout, automated.

A passive tool-tracking system uses a fixed reader at a strategic point to catch tool movements, plus handheld readers for tool-crib checkout and finding.

  • Fast — many passive tags read at once, so counts fly by.
  • Inexpensive — passive tags are low-cost, even at high volume.
  • Fits any tool — tags come in many sizes, down to the very smallest.
Active V-Tag

Plant-wide, hands-free monitoring.

When you need to keep an eye on high-value tools across the whole floor, active V-Tag mesh tags add continuous, hands-free, zone-level tracking — no scanning required.

  • Longer read range than passive — cover a large shop with far fewer read points.
  • Shock sensing — an automated alert if an expensive tool is dropped.
  • Zone-level location, hands-free — tools report their area automatically (the self-healing mesh settles in about 3–4 minutes) — no chokepoint to walk through.
