The Newest Omron Electromagnetic RFID System Combines High Speed with Ease of Operation



SCHAUMBURG, IL (June 25, 2003)-The Omron V670 Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system is a high-speed production line control and data tracking system. Operating in self-execution mode, the system eliminates delay required for communication with a host controller, therefore providing the high-speed processing required to track products as they move on high-speed production lines. The V670's rapid read/write control is user-friendly, with ease of operation that is similar to an on/off sensor.

The V670 system ID tags incorporate batteryless ferroelectric RAM technology that eliminates battery replacement, tag replacement or related maintenance. Each tag has a memory capacity of 128 bytes and can be accessed 1,000,000,000 times, enabling virtually continuous use for ten years. Antennas located ten centimeters apart experience no mutual interference that might lead to malfunction.

The V670 system is ideal for process inspection of moving objects in production lines for foods, chemicals, cosmetics, or compact parts. Other applications include flow control of moving objects in material handling environments, including sorting and distribution, and control of component mounting in assembly areas.

The Omron V670 Electromagnetic RFID System is available from stock at a cost of $1,400.
