Explanation:

RFID in Material Handling: Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) uses electromagnetic fields to automatically identify and track tags attached to objects.

Main Benefits:

Improved Speed and Flexibility: RFID allows for quick scanning and identification of multiple items without line-of-sight, enhancing operational efficiency.

Long Distance Readability: Beneficial but secondary to speed and flexibility in material handling.

Ability to Withstand Harsh Environments: Important for durability but not the primary benefit.

Detection of Multiple Tags: Contributes to speed and efficiency but is part of the broader advantage of improved speed and flexibility.

Conclusion: The main benefit of RFID for material handling is the improved speed and flexibility it offers, allowing for efficient and agile operations.
