As we know, Marriott International is one of the world’s leading hotel groups, operating in 127 countries and regions with more than 6,500 hotels worldwide. In China, Marriott manages over 570 hotels. To improve operational efficiency and enhance service quality, Marriott has adopted RFID technology in multiple areas, including linen management.
During periods of high occupancy, linen cycles accelerate, with multiple item types moving quickly across departments. Traditional manual counting and paper-based records often lead to low efficiency, delayed visibility, and unclear handover accountability. To improve linen management efficiency and visibility, Marriott introduced an RFID Linen Management System (SLMS) and deployed the Rayfine MC51 built-in UHF handheld as the frontline operational device, enabling full-process digital management of hotel linens.
Becaue using RFID technology to manage laundry has many benefits below.
Key requirements of hotel linen management include high tag density, bulk scanning, fast speed, low missed-read rate, and device durability. As the frontline operational terminal, MC51 is highly aligned with these needs:
- Built-in PCB antenna design: Innovative structure improves performance and ensures a lightweight, ergonomic handheld experience for high-frequency use.
- Powered by Impinj E Series chipset and supports Impinj Gen2X: Delivers stronger efficiency and stability in dense multi-tag reading scenarios.
- High-performance multi-tag reading: Supports 750+ tags/second, ideal for rapid bulk counts on linen carts and baskets.
- Long read range up to 5m+: Reduces repeated close-range scanning and improves mobile counting efficiency.
- Highly reliable reading performance: Capable of reading 240 tags in 1 second with no missed tags, ensuring accurate inbound/outbound verification.
- 5000mAh removable battery with hot-swap / quick-swap support: Ensures uninterrupted operations throughout long working shifts.
So using RFID handheld reader and RFID tag to manage laundry is more and more popular.
If you can enter industry as soon as possible, you can get more benefits.
