RFID Tags for Harsh Environments
Speakers: Evie Bennett, VP of Sales and Marketing, William Frick & Co.; Brent Howell, Business Development Manager, William Frick & Co.
Finding the right passive UHF RFID tag to work in your specific environment, particularly in harsh environments, can be a challenge. A tag's ability to transmit to a reader can be affected by the hum of nearby machines, metal shelving, liquids or a host of other distractions. Additionally, the tag itself may need to survive abrasions, high temperatures, hot water or solvents. William Frick & Co. provides tags for challenging environments. In this solutions showcase, learn about some of the company's tags that will work in difficult environments, and hear how tags can be customized to meet any challenging need.
