Description

1 TARIFF THREE-DIMENSIONAL PRINTING AND METAL COATING FOR INDUSTRIAL CONDITIONS. CONFIGURIZED NFC TAG TECHNICAL FIELD The invention is suitable for manufacturing in heavy industry, chemical, defense industry and automotive factories, 5 For the identification of work equipment used in manufacturing facilities. A 3D printer developed for use with and an NFC tag with a metal casing. It is related to. STATE OF THE ART 10 Especially industrial work equipment (fire equipment, pressure vessels, lifting and conveying equipment, industrial racking and doors, construction machinery, etc. identification and legally mandated periodic inspection and maintenance This requires the identification and software-based tracking of this equipment. In order for it to be possible, it must withstand the heat, water, chemicals and impacts it will be exposed to in the environment. Identification elements with high resistance to countermeasures are needed. Among the solutions developed is NFC, which stands for "Near Field Communication". In technical terms, it is an abbreviation for "Near Field Communication". NFC tags are used to exchange data between two devices over short distances. This is ensured. Developed for secure communication and only in the short term 20 NFC is a wireless connection technology used over electromagnetic distances. It is a short-range wireless communication technology that uses induction, and devices By connecting them, they enable the exchange of information. The communication system is bidirectional. It allows devices to connect without physical contact. The QR code system currently used in the industry is only applicable to elevators and indoor areas (25). For equipment with limited capacity, such as stationary machinery, only the periodic inspection report is required. It is used to display QR codes by scanning them with the phone's camera. It provides access to data. Used in maintenance and resistant to impact, heat and chemicals. exposed work equipment (steel-fabric slings, welding machines, parachute type (seat belts, etc.) Labeling with QR code and post-maintenance camera surveillance 30 It cannot be taught. 2 Document number CN201510385305A states, "The invention is an NFC antenna and a device with it." It is a mobile terminal. The NFC antenna consists of: a metal housing. Metal a feed point on the housing and in the direction of the thickness of the metal housing There is a gap that runs through the metal casing. The gap is at least as wide as the metal. It includes a spiral segment provided spirally on the housing. Feeding point 5 It is summarized as "provided in a place close to the void." The document with publication number CN201920954860U states, "The utility model is an NFC smart device." It describes the module and an NFC metal smart product, and the field of smart modules. It is related. An NFC tag is attached to an NFC tag body, with 10 pins on the bottom surface of the NFC tag body. an anti-metal layer placed in the binding mode and an NFC tag It consists of a colloid placed in a bonding mode on the upper surface of its body. The colloidal substance is a droplet adhesive, and the outer surface of the NFC tag is coated with this droplet. coated with adhesive; NFC tag, an NFC main body and NFC main body It consists of a raised unit arranged on it. The NFC tag has NFC functionality. It can guarantee normal operation of an NFC smart module in an NFC metal smart product. It enables implementation, is easy to install, enhances smart functionality, and is visually appealing. and it is good in terms of customer experience and the further development of NFC technology and its application. This is summarized as "it also facilitates its popularization and development." DEFINITION OF INVENTION The present invention eliminates the aforementioned disadvantages and the related technical It relates to an NFC tag developed to bring new advantages to the field. The purpose of the invention is to create a material suitable for use in industrial equipment, where the environment is exposed to 25°C. It is a three-dimensional material with high resistance to heat, water, chemicals, and impacts. The goal is to create an NFC tag using printer technology and metal components. (Existing) The invention allows for the creation of high-strength and durable materials using a three-dimensional printer.

Here, NFC hardware is integrated with 3D printing technology and metal components. software and mobile application for equipment coming out of maintenance in oily and dusty environments 3 even (without needing a camera) allows access to all data simply by touching the screen. This data is provided through a periodic inspection report via QR code, which is limited to this information. It does not remain. Making NFC tags more durable, reducing periodic checks and maintenance to 5 Efficient execution involves labels being resistant to extreme temperatures, water, and chemicals. and providing protection against physical impacts, traceability of work equipment and Specially coated and database-registered NFC for easy tracking. Equipment ID / Code for occupational health and safety purposes of equipment bearing the label, Department, unit, periodic inspection date, next periodic inspection 10 Inspection date, maintenance date, next maintenance date, name and surname of the inspector. Information such as the location of the equipment being inspected can be accessed. In addition to the data, checklists are added to the system on an equipment basis. Once installed, maintenance checks can be performed via mobile software without the need for paper. This can be done. Additionally, maintenance instructions for the most challenging equipment in the field are available on page 15. When user manuals, technical drawings, etc. are uploaded as files, they are also available on the mobile device. This allows the maintenance being carried out to be easily monitored in the field. By eliminating errors, it prevents workplace accidents. Just before work begins... On-site equipment suitability check via touch-screen mobile application. This can be provided. The equipment needs to be checked at the office for documentation purposes. 20 It will disappear. Also, reminders and deadlines for equipment whose lifespan is approaching will be provided. Information about the equipment that has been loaded will be sent via an automated email system. A proactive approach will be taken. This will help to identify and mitigate human errors that might otherwise go unnoticed. It will prevent it. Another objective of the invention is the mobile application prepared for the developed NFC tag. It provides access to equipment information in the field through a web interface. It allows tracking the inventory information of all equipment. Web The entire system can also be managed from the interface. For example; User identification, adding / removing new equipment from the system, sending emails 30 It establishes the rules. When you touch NFC tags with the mobile application. Equipment usage instructions, maintenance instructions, etc., should be available to everyone in the field. It enables access to periodic checks or maintenance via the mobile application. 4 When this is done, photographs of the inappropriate equipment are taken and uploaded to the system as evidence. It can be recorded. Another purpose of the invention is to be suitable for the field in which it will be used and the work equipment on which it will be applied. 5. Creating an NFC tag and establishing a system to fix it to these locations. The purpose is to create. For example, screwing into work equipment such as welding machines, cranes, etc. While it can be fixed using this method, steel slings, fire hydrants, etc. are attached to work equipment made of steel. It can be attached with a wire. Another purpose of the invention is to comply with the Occupational Health and Safety Law No. 6331 and Labor Law No. 10. Regulations on Health and Safety Requirements in the Use of Equipment, primarily higher monitoring and control of mandatory periodic inspections and maintenance. This allows it to be done more accurately, in a shorter time, with less labor and cost. is provided.
