Original Press Release:
New Labeling Solution from Avery Dennison Printer Systems Helps Companies Meet Retailer and DoD RFID Requirements
solution consists of scalable ItemSight(TM) software and scanner, plus printer options
PHILADELPHIA-A new labeling solution that helps companies meet major-retailer and Department of Defense (DoD) RFID and bar-code identification requirements is now available from Avery Dennison Printer Systems. The solution consists of new scalable ItemSight(TM) software bundled with a scanner, plus optional label production systems. The label production options include Avery Dennison's AP5.4 and 64xx series printers, and ALX print/apply systems.
The software and scanner, along with optional printers, enable users to convert existing bar code container labels into labels that meet retailers' and DoD bar code and/or RFID product identification requirements.
In operation, a user simply scans the bar code that currently exists on a container. The ItemSight software then converts the bar-code's data to EPC- and DoD-compliant 96-bit formats, such as SGTIN, SSCC96 and DoD96. The converted files can then be electronically transmitted to customers and vendors. With an optional printer, users can produce Gen 2 RFID-enabled labels and bar coded labels for application beneath the existing container label.
For DoD applications, Avery Dennison Printer Systems provides and records pre-encoded labels. The scanner reads the RFID label and logs the carton content. The system then logs the cartons to the pallet. Data is uploaded, quickly and accurately for DoD RFID compliance.
"The solution enables small and mid-size manufacturers and suppliers, especially those with limited IT resources in-house, to comply with today's stringent labeling requirements," reports Dan Williams, marketing manager, Avery Dennison Printer Systems. "The program updates existing carton and labeling information, including manufacturing codes, date codes and SKU numbers, and ensures compliance with 96-bit, Gen 2 standards. Plus, the solution is reasonably priced."
Scalable Program with Database Capabilities
Itemsight can be integrated into a company's existing IT environment, and comes with on-site installation support. The program is scalable to fit user requirements. Companies can start with the basic program and then scale up as production levels increase.
In addition, the program features excellent data-logging and integration capabilities. Users are able to create and save databases that contain the original scanned data and the converted files.
