DAILY's new adhesive RFID on-metal tag

Tuesday, February 2, 2010

DAILY RFID has launched a new passive RFID series for on-metal industrial applications, such as railway and warehousing. Coined as the On-Metal Tag Series, the adhesive RFID tags are specifically designed for close quarters checking and can be easily affixed to any metal surface with its self-adhesive 3M Glue.

With high performance for on-metal tagging, each tag operates at 125 KHz or 13.56 MHz, making them a good selection for industries that require tags to track products containing metal.

Despite its small size, the RFID metal tags can provide an impressive read range from 40 mm to 100 mm and maximum to 60 cm by using DAILY’s RFID reader. [end]
