MACtac(R) Adds RFID to Its Conductive Solutions Capabilities
Stow, Ohio - Spring 2002 - MACtac(R) Technical Products' Hopkins, MN facility has integrated its radio frequency identification (RFID) technology with its existing pressure sensitive adhesive knowledge to provide high-quality and cost-effective RFID solutions.
Radio frequency identification consists of tags, readers and a host computer interface. MACtac has commercialized its unique high-volume process to produce RFID consumables with broad capabilities. MACtac Technical Products is able to produce
RFID antennas, inlets and finished tags in various forms at almost any frequency to meet specific needs. According to MACtac Technical Products' sales and marketing manager, Ross Burnham, this process allows MACtac to provide its customers with several benefits.
