Long Range UHF-based Industrial RFID from Balluff

October 7, 2011 By Miles Budimir Leave a Comment

Florence, Ky. – Balluff’s BIS U series UHF or Ultra High Frequency RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) provides one of the most reliable and flexible tools to get visibility into your supply chain and manufacturing process. Because BIS U technology is passive, no expensive battery-based tags are required to achieve long detection ranges. The BIS U allows non-contact read/write ranges as high as 6m. They can not only be used with low-cost paper tags, but also industrially hardened long life metal mount container tags and even high-temperature tags. 

Some of the benefits of Balluff’s UHF system include the enabling of real-time visibility for logistics and manufacturing, needing no batteries for long-range transmission and unlike bar codes, UHF does not require “line-of-sight.” Other features include RS232 serial or Ethernet TCP/IP interface options and the ability to detect and process multiple RFID tags at once.

Applications include asset tracking, logistics tracking, closed-loop and supply chain logistics and production tracking.

Balluff can combine the new UHF system with our other passive RFID technologies, including high frequency ISO15693 systems to provide greater flexibility with the highest reliability. Balluff can also provide the necessary services for site surveys, hardware and even software integration to create a fully integrated, cost effective and reliable manufacturing and logistics solution.
