Passive UHF RFID System supports distances to 6 m.
October 25, 2011 -
Providing real-time visibility within supply chain and manufacturing process using reliable, flexible tools, BIS U series RFID system enables non-contact read/write ranges up to 6 m. It can be used with paper tags as well as industrially hardened, long life, metal mount container tags and high-temperature tags. Along with RS232 Serial or Ethernet TCP/IP interface options, features include multi-tag detection and processing capabilities.

Long Range Industrial RFID from Balluff - up to 6 Meter Read/Write Distance
UHF based RFID tracks assets with greater range and flexibility
Florence, KY: In today's manufacturing environments, knowing where both parts and assets are can be key to maintaining continuous operation and preventing production delays. Assets like containers, totes and skids are as critical to maintain a smoothly running manufacturing process as the parts themselves. Knowing where these assets are in the supply chain provides significant visibility into where the process is now and where problems may arise. Being able to track assets and the parts they contain can help prevent shortages at manufacturing lines and create real-time visibility into the state of the process, providing a means for greater efficiency and process improvement that can translate into real cost savings.
Balluff's BIS U series UHF or Ultra High Frequency RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) provides one of the most reliable and flexible tools to get visibility into your supply chain and manufacturing process. Because BIS U technology is passive, no expensive battery based tags are required to achieve long detection ranges. With the BIS U, non-contact read/write ranges as high as 6 meters can be achieved. BIS U RFID can not only be used with low cost paper tags, but also industrially hardened long life metal mount container tags and even high temperature tags.
