As specialists in labelling and automatic product identification, we also produce RFID labels. This is a technology that has recently experienced a real boom in popularity. This is a result of the increasing awareness of the need to automate production and logistic processes, as well as improvements in RFID technology itself, which offers increased opportunities to reduce process times.
RFID is a data transfer technology using radio waves for this purpose. Technological advancements in recent decades have resulted in the fact that nowadays RFID tags allow fast and convenient transfer of a wide variety of data and in large amounts.
In order to read data from an RFID tag, you need two elements: a reader and a label (transponder). The reader is a device which receives data stored on the RFID tag. It consists of the following elements: a transmitting and receiving antenna, a transmitter, a receiver, and a decoder. Whereas the tag consists of an integrated circuit and an antenna. How does this system work? In order to read data stored on an RFID tag, a reader emitting electromagnetic waves must be used. If their intensity exceeds a limit point, as a result of the generated energy, the RFID label receives a signal and prepares a response. It is sent in the form of a tag code. Then, a reader receives the signal using an antenna.
It should be noted that RFID tags vary significantly. Different division criteria can be used, such as, for instance, the application of the tags. However, taking into consideration the functionality of the tags, the systems should be divided according to the frequency of radio waves used. In this way we receive the following categories of RFID systems:
The popularity of RFID labels is constantly increasing. In some industries they are already commonly used. The application of RFID labels is, above all, to mark items and record information about products and processes. These issues can also be solved in many other ways. RFID is frequently compared to, for example, classic bar codes. Why, therefore, is RFID gaining in popularity and why is it such an eagerly chosen solution? This is due to a range of advantages of RFID technology. These are:
As we have already mentioned, RFID labels are becoming common nowadays. Nevertheless, their application is particularly popular in some areas. RFID has gained most popularity is such areas as:
RFID labels are also used at all stages of production and logistics, right through to sales. In other words, they are present throughout the whole product manufacturing process and its delivery to the end customers. Moreover, they are more and more commonly used also in business. They are used, among other things, for access control, e.g., as employee ID badges allowing them to enter a company building. However, this is not the only application of RFID labels in business. The rest is discussed further in the text.
Etisoft’s wide offer includes RFID labels for various applications. We cooperate with entities operating in various industries, adjusting our assortment to our customers’ needs. We focus mainly on providing business solutions to production, logistics, trade, and business, as in these areas the demand for RFID technologies is definitely the greatest.
In this area our offer is the widest, due to the largest and most diverse needs of our customers. We offer, above all:
RFID tags for containers and pallets – we manufacture RFID labels for reusable packaging. In this case, the tags have a double function. Firstly, they are used to read the content of a given packaging, which is essential, among other things, in the order picking process and warehouse inventory. Moreover, the RFID tag makes it possible to read the recycling status of a container or a pallet. The advantages of this solution are inventory automation and facilitation of the recycling process.
RFID identification labels – used at all stages of production, to label all components used in the product manufacturing process. They are used to mark components and semi-finished goods, as well as finished products.
RFID labels for shelves and racks – elements of the comprehensive marking system. The information contained in the tags is used mainly by automated robots and vehicles, facilitating, and frequently even allowing their operation. The tags are used in warehouses and other facilities where the specific location of individual goods plays a significant role. This solution serves to automate work.
Within the RFID label offer for trade and marketing we have prepared two major solutions:
RFID product labels – the tags contain the most important information from the end customer’s point of view. The data are usually stored on databases from which they can be downloaded using an identifier stored in the RFID tag.
The tags of this type are used in two ways. Above all, they serve to automate inventory in points of sale of products. In addition to that, they can be used as anti-theft tags.
RFID marketing labels – similar to product labels, they are used to label products. However, their role is slightly different. Their role is to provide marketing data, serving as a promotional tool for the seller. The end customer uses RFID tags to read information about the product. The tags of this type can contain links to websites or text information about the product, as well as encouragement to use additional offers as a bonus resulting from using the particular product. These tags use NFC technology, thanks to which they can be read by any mobile device equipped with this functionality.
As we have already mentioned, RFID is used in business in many ways. An RFID label can be used as an element of access security, for example in an employee ID badge. Etisoft also offers another solution for business:
RFID technology is not a solution of the future, but present, essential for effective process automation. We encourage you to contact us in order to find the optimal solution within this scope. We provide individual approach and adapt our offer to the individual customer needs.
The price of an RFID tag depends on whether it is active or passive, as well as its operating frequency and memory capacity. The cost of passive RFID tags ranges from just over ten euro cents to one euro per unit. Advanced, highly durable, and damage-resistant RFID tags can cost 10 euros apiece.
RFID labels are used for wireless identification of objects using radio waves, making it possible to collect data quickly and automatically without having to place the object in the line of sight. They enable resource management, production process monitoring, supply chain tracking, streamline logistics and warehouse management, and protect goods from theft.
Yes, with an RFID printer, you can print and encode RFID labels yourself. The advantage of printing and encoding RFID tags on your own is that you have full control over the process and you can tailor the labels to your individual needs. To print RFID labels, you need an RFID printer from Zebra or Printronix and ETILABEL software, which allows you to print and encode RFID labels.
