Certification
The co. has earned certification to use EPC Gen2 RFID inlays from both Avery Dennison and Alien Technology. The co. converts its own SmartTrak brand of RFID smart labels, and says it will use Avery's Gen2 Runway and other Avery inlays, plus Alien's Gen2 Squiggle inlay with its smart labels. Weber
RFID labels
The co. is the industry's first converter to offer a 100-percent performance and delivery guarantee for rugged, reliable RFID labels. The guaranteed performance and delivery offer, coupled with the lower order amount and per-unit price, enables users to enter a risk-free pilot program for inserting
RFID emissions certified
Ten IDENT RFID read heads received FCC approval, certifying that their electromagnetic fields fall within radiated emissions limits, the co. says. These guidelines are designed to minimize potential electromagnetic or radio-frequency interference between various devices in a facility. The IDENT
RFID reader
The INfinity 110 HF RFID reader incorporates the new Texas Instruments TRF7960 chip and reportedly provides application developers with a variety of tag choices by supporting numerous protocols. The module is designed for compactness and low power consumption, requiring only a 3.3-v power supply.
RFID tagging system
The SmartMark customized RFID tagging system is designed to solve the requirements of harsh-environment RFID tag exposure and permanent RFID tag-deployment durability. The co. has partnered with Stratum Global, an RFID applications-solutions provider and systems integrator, to offer a turnkey RFID
RFID starter kit
The Gen2 RFID Pilot Express program includes a turnkey RFID hardware and software package that facilitates the launch of pilot RFID programs, using new, EPCglobal Gen2 protocol, in 30 days or less, the co. reports. Contents include an MP9320 v.2.8 multiprotocol reader, antennas, a light stack and
Track-and-trace
The CPI-Express will debut at PACK Expo, displayed with track-and-trace applications including serialized erected cartons, serialized 2D codes on labels and flat feeding. The co. designs product handling, printing and vision inspection systems for the pharmaceutical industry. Its CPI-300 system
RFID reader
Expected to ship this month, the XR450 fixed RFID reader features both bi- and mono-static antenna ports for simplified deployment. The mono-static reader is said to be more durable and have greater data capture capabilities. Other changes for the XR series include new management software and
RFID encoder/applicator
An integrated RFID system is introduced to pave the way for compliance while anticipating future needs with integrated software and services. The Cimjet® RFID encoder/applicator automatically encodes and applies RFID tags to cases and cartons for higher throughput via greater tag placement accuracy
Electronic-control antenna technology
A new, patent-pending, electronic-control antenna technology embedded in UHF-band RFID readers will soon be available (late Q4) that the co. says can improve RFID tag-reading performance. UHF tags, which offer a significantly greater communications range than other frequency bands, have become
