Industrial RFID

HF RFID for identifying carriers, pallets, and trays at each station. Three readers that differ by housing and read range, and the tags that go with them. Everything runs over IO-Link.

4 readers and tags

RFID Transponders

Passive 13.56 MHz data carriers powered by the reader's field. Each has a globally unique ID that can be read but not overwritten, plus writable user memory.

Key Specifications:

  • Frequency: 13.56 MHz, ISO/IEC 15693
  • Memory: 112, 316 or 2,000 bytes
  • Sizes: Ø9 mm to Ø50 mm discs
  • Up to IP68/IP69K
Applications: Tagging workpiece carriers so each station can read and rewrite process data, Food trays tracked through processing, Batch traceability across the production process, Tagging tools or fixtures, embedded out of sight
