TAGSYS, the global leader in RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) infrastructure, today announced the release of the ultra-high frequency (UHF) TRAK tag family specifically designed to deliver optimum performance in item-level track and trace applications.
TAGSYS is the only company that designs and develops an RFID system for both high-frequency (HF) and UHF applications to guarantee customers a highly accurate and reliable RFID infrastructure.
TAGSYS' new TRAK tag family includes an industry-breakthrough technology that significantly reduces RFID “shadowing” and “detuning” to guarantee read accuracy and maintain data integrity on an item-level. Shadowing and detuning - common phenomenon with UHF technology - result when one tag in close proximity to another blocks the signal from a reader antenna.
This has been a major limitation in achieving acceptable read rates for item-level UHF implementations. TAGSYS' new design now provides applications requiring item proximity, such as stacked folders or packaged bottles, with precise and consistent data reads on tagged items.
“Our engineering team was impressed with the first UHF tag developed for document tracking and other item-level applications where shadowing is a problem. It clearly demonstrates TAGSYS' commitment to provide quality UHF products to supplement a strong HF RFID product portfolio,” said Chetan Karani of ODIN technologies.
“The DocTRAK tag is a good example of a UHF RFID tag tuned for a specific job. It outperformed three competitors in our internal file tracking benchmark testing.”
