Identec solution (Baumer) closed down production of the pc3103/xx (OIS-P) tags in 2018. Until now there has been no replacement tags, refurbishment- or update program available for your originally installed tags. Ident System AB can now offer customers that have this type of tags a refurbishment program that makes the tags as new.
The refurbishment program includes:
The program is based on a minimum tag volume of 20 pc per batch or more. If you have any interest in this please contact Ident system.
Identsystem AB are now adding the Cargospect volume measurement system from CIND to our product portfolio.
Cargospect is an optical system for precise measurement of the volume of a pallets load – for example when a loaded forklift passes the system and is ideal to use for optimising vehicle loading and for invoicing according to shipping volume. Cargospect work fast and with high accuracy.
Cargospect can be combined with barcode and RFID-readers like our own EVS138 and IDeal series for seamless integration and identification of the goods being measured.
Contact us for more information.
We continue this year by presenting our next product in a series of new releases where refocus on increasing the life and compatibility of your existing system.
After Introducing our ZIOX-converter in our RFID line last year, we now present our EVS Signal Interface Converter (EVS-SIC)
You might want to keep your existing camera in a code reading system, while still needing to upgrade the readers to more modern technology. As always when merging new technology with old, there might be problems with communication between the units.
A common case we have seen is when a customer want to switch to our EVS138 readers while preferring to keep their old Baumer EVS128 or EVS134 cameras. Our EVS138 reader communicate via a 115.200 kbit/s interface, while the Baumer camera send its data at 12.000 kbit/s. By connecting our EVS-SIC between the units, the signal is converted seamlessly.
The EVS-SIC can of course be used for any kind of serial data conversion. The connection is made through standard RS232 interfaces both in and out, and the transfer rate on both ports can be selected between 12.000 to 115.200 kbit/s. Parity and/or Stop bits can also be converted.
Ident System IDeal125 LF-controller is fully compatible with the obsolete OIS-L Series-77 reader from Baumer Ident.
Our IDeal125 LF-controller is a Read/Write device with two antenna ports that we developed to fill the gap that occurred when production of the Baumer Ident OIS-L product line was stopped.
Being a more modern design than the OIS-L, the IDeal125 has a number of additional features. We kept the external connections and the program commands identical to the old system so all existing cables and programs can be used without causing additional work or cost. New antennas are required but the housings are identical to the old OIS-L series.
To increase the compatibility options even further IDeal125 is avaliable in two different versions, one with a standard RS232 serial interface and the other with PROFIBUS, for compability with those systems that are running on PROFIBUS protocol.
Depending on antenna type and size, this powerful device can achieve a reading distance of up to 30 cm. The IDeal125 two channel controller allows near field and short range applications.
Since the launch of our Ideal134 system, IdentSystem AB have now made our 5th installation globally of the system for use for Tambour ID at papermills.
The system fully replaces the older Baumer Ident OIS-P and it can also be used for new installations. Ideal134 give the user full traceability back to master systems such as MES and similar and is invaluable for operators to avoid errors in handling and to trace production and quality data.
The system consists of a reader connected to the present Mill Executive System and will keep track of Tambour-ID, orientation and acceptable destinations. The Tambour-ID system easily integrates with various MES e.g. Honeywell Optivision, ABB Automation, Paperline and similar systems.

Tambour identification has in the past mostly been done using Microwave-based systems. That hardware is now getting to a point where it needs to be replaced in order to warrant a safe and trouble-free operation in the mills. Since a few years Ident System AB offers an economic and well-proven replacement system based on LF-RFID instead of the microwave systems.

Project objectives:
We were contracted by a tool manufacturer for the airplane industry to develop an RFID system to be integrated into a new type of portable precision drilling machine.
Project background and description:
The customer serves primarily the global automotive, aerospace, energy, and general industry markets. In most traditional industries precision holes can be successfully drilled with a drill press or CNC machine but because a significant number of aircraft components are too large, too complex or too irregularly shaped to be taken to a machining center, portable precision drill motors must be taken to the plane itself. It is impractical to drill precision holes in a wing, fuselage or engine nacelle any other way. With a wide wide range of hole sizes, the critically close tolerances required of those holes and the divergent materials used in the aerospace manufacturing industry demand that these portable precision drill motors are available with a remarkably broad range of cutter speeds, feed rate combinations, and physical properties that can accommodate virtually any workspace or application.
All of the customers tools in this range are designed to be fixture mounted with torque and thrust counteracted by the fixture, not by the operator. These tools do not rely on the variable strength of manpower to push against a drill, which means they deliver greater accuracy, repeatability and consistency of hole integrity, as well as greatly reduced fatigue and risk of injury to the operator.
When drilling the thousands of precision holes in a wing, a large number of fixture segments are used and in each segment several bushings are mounted. The bushing has a bayonet locking mechanism to allow for a secure and exact positioning of the drill motor. Each bushing is fitted with a small RFID tag. The fact that most of the components to be machined are not only very expensive, but also difficult to machine materials, it is essential to knew that the right tool is used, at the right cutting speed and feed, at each particular instant.
The project solution:
We designed a small RFID reader that could be integrated into the drill motor body. The reader can control two antennas. The drill machine is of a modular design. It has a control unit to, amongst other features; also govern feeds, speeds and coolant supply. Depending on size and type of tool different nose pieces can be attached to the machine. Each of the nose pieces has a small RFID tag installed. One antenna is used to verify that the correct type and size is fitted for the job to be performed.
The second antenna is mounted at the very tip of the nose piece. It is oriented so that when the machine is securely clamped in the drill bushing, the nose antenna and the bushing tag are lined up in front of each other.
When the machine is first set under power, the reader automatically switches to antenna No.1. As soon as the nose piece has been identified and verified to be the correct one, the machine is ready to dock onto a fixture bushing. There the bushing tag ID is read and sent to the machine control unit. There the correct program is loaded and the hole is automatically drilled, using the preset ideal cutting conditions.
The result is an improved hole quality:
Reduced cost per hole:
Reduced inventory & capital investment:
Improved tool economy:
