Intermec Announces New IT67 Enterprise Rigid Asset Tag
New rugged RFID metal tag enables multidirectional reading performance for portal and forklift applications
EVERETT, Wash., Oct. 21, 2008 -Intermec Inc. (NYSE:IN) today introduced the IT67 Enterprise Lateral Transmitting (LT) Tag, an RFID tag with both edge and normal reading performance designed specifically to support portal and forklift applications and enhance forklift reading performance. With edge reading, users can now read the data from the IT67 laterally, eliminating the need to face the tag directly. This allows organizations to streamline operations and track assets more effectively without the need for chokepoints.
The IT67 is ideal for industries that track large metal containers such as the automotive, postal and waste management industries. The passive tag meets Gen 2 and 18000-6C requirements and is equipped with a rugged casing to survive extreme wear and tear. It also features a thin profile and provides read range performance of up to 26 feet. Further, the IT67 is reusable for lower cost per use and can be mounted to containers with a variety of methods including screws, rivets and double-sided adhesive strips for simple installation. It is compatible with the complete suite of Intermec mobile and fixed RFID readers.
"The IT67 is a significant advancement for our line of rugged, industry leading RFID tags," said Ray Cronin, Vice President and General Manager, RFID, Intermec. "We designed the IT67 specifically to track returnable containers for automotive manufacturers and their suppliers giving them the ability to read data in either a portal or forklift application, thus simplifying their tracking processes and minimizing their infrastructure investment requirements. The combined edge and normal reading ability allows businesses to optimize operations, save time, minimize shrinkage and achieve a better return on investment."
