RFID
RFID is essential when you own a large volume
of Returnable Transport Items (RTI).
- Up to 25% of RTIs are lost per year.
- Counterfeit RTIs are being returned to your facility and you are reconditioning or replacing assets you don’t own.
The costs associated with these two actions alone can be staggering. Add to them the inefficiencies in your supply chain because you don’t know where all your RTI assets are and the cost to you becomes astronomical.
The ROI on durable Laser Direct Structuring (LDS) designed RFID tags makes perfect sense.
The issue with traditional RFID tags is the fact that they just aren’t durable enough. Harsh environments require premium materials.
You’re not only dealing with normal wear and tear but the elements as well. Exposure to water as well as high and low temperatures can drastically reduce the efficiency of RFID tags. The long life expectancy of your RTI can require several tags over its lifetime. The proper materials need to be considered during the design phase. That’s why we believe designing durable RFID tags utilizing the LDS method for RTIs is essential.
The LDS Process Gives You:
- The long life expectancy your assets need.
- Superior thermal, impact and vibration resistance.
- The ability to integrate the necessary circuitry directly onto the tag reducing the need for sub-components and costly assemblies.
