DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION - PART 2: RFID SYSTEMS – SOLUTION
WHY CHOOSE RFID TECHNOLOGY:
- EASY POSITIONING IN MATERIALS / PRODUCTION UNIT
- HEAT RESISTANT / TORSION / PRESSURE AND
TEMPERATURE
- EXCELLENT READING PERFORMANCE
- No frontal constraints
- No label integrity constraints
- Cumulative reading possibility
- No special light conditions
- allowing the automatic (hand free),
massive and remote detection of static
and moving objects.
