IDeal 134 RFID reader for Tambour-ID applications

Admin@IdentSystem Uncategorised

IdentSystem’s Ideal134 RFID reader is not installed in nice papermills Tambour-ID system all over the world.

Our solution makes system design very flexible since we can design both the tags for different tambour sizes and types of metal surroundings as well as tailor-make antenna sizes and shapes depending on positionening needs. Antannas can also be fine-tuned for optimal readability, even in difficult environments.

The system can both replace the Baumer Ident OIS-P and is ideal 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 IDeal134 reader connects 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.

We have put together a short system description of our Tambour-ID solution that can be downloaded from our website here: Link to Tambour-ID pdf.

More about EVS144 barcode readers

Admin@IdentSystem Uncategorised
We have been talking a lot about our EVS144 imager and line cameras lately, and since there is a lot to say about them we will continue doing so even this week.
  • evs144 line camera
Besides excellent reading capabilities (autofocus and long distances), the readers are configurable to automatically capture codes as they come into reading range, this setup makes reading almost automatic as all reading is done while the goods are moved. it is also ergonomic since no extra motions are needed for the forklift driver in order to make the capture, and also reduces the risk of damaged goods. For more information and orders, please contact us at contact@identsystem.com, or through your ordinary contact within our company.

Newsflash – LF RFID Ethernet reader coming!

Admin@IdentSystem Uncategorised

As part of our continuous efforts to supply our customers with products suited for their needs, Ident System will soon be launching a new RFID reader in our LF series. The reader’s main uses are for example conveyor belts, CNC machinery, and pallet conveyors.

This reader will work on both the 125 and 134.2kHz range and is designed to communicate data and instructions via Ethernet.

Configuration of the unit is done through a user-friendly web interface from your browser, but configuration through a serial terminal is also available. To further simplify usage, the reader uses our standard (and custom RFID LF antennas). Note that there are some limitations to the size of antennas that can be used.

We will update with more information as the reader gets closer to release date.

Contact us for more information.

Custom RFID-Antennas for special needs

Admin@IdentSystem ENG, Newsletter, RFID

Identification tasks in manufacturing industries, logistics, and many other areas can often be solved using stock antennas. These consist of two sizes of cylindrical antennas (M30/L70mm and M18x1 L25mm), and square antennas from 100x100x15 mm to 400x400x15 mm.

However, there are instances, when there is very little space to mount a standard antenna, or when you want a different shape to optimise coverage as in circular or rectangular shape. On other occasions, it is desirable to integrate the antenna into a tool or machine.

Through our vast experience from working with RFID, we have the knowledge and tools that let us design and manufacture virtually any size and shape of special antennas.

As an example we can mention a mini-antenna Ø5x18mm that was integrated into a special electric drill for the Aircraft Industry. For robot arm applications, we have manufactured antennas Ø10x50mm. Flat, rectangular antennas to be mounted directly on metal is yet another speciality. They come in sizes 20x32x10mm and 30x40x10mm.

All other sizes and shapes are just a request from you away.

Comparison – Line and Imager EVS144 code reader

Admin@IdentSystem Uncategorised
Ident System AB EVS144 code readers are a code reader series that is easy to install because of their small dimensions.
While both EVS144 models are made for rough in- and outdoor use, mainly forklift-mounted, there are some important differences between them that we will highlight below. 
If you already have the EVS144 Imager it can be upgraded to EVS144 Matrix.EVS144 Line Camera.

Auto-focus system reading range 0,5 -13m (x-dim= 2mm)

Both models have a joystick-controlled movable read-head which makes them suited for both fixed mounting such as entrance areas or conveyor belts, or forklift mounted.

The long reading distances, depth of sharpness and ability to read a wide range of codes as well as inverted codes, codes punched in metal sheets or low quality printed codes makes this a truly versatile series for use in harsh environments where reading conditions and/or a large flexibility to read a range of code types and object sizes are present.

Ident System AB – Our RFID tags

Admin@IdentSystem ENG, Newsletter, Paper industry, RFID
Ident System carries a range of specialized and standard RFID tags on stock, or in some cases as made to order to adapt to our customer’s system. We will present a few of our most common tags here, but you might want to contact us to find the tag best suited for your specific needs.
When you want positional data for a forklift in the loading dock or factory floor to ensure that the load is taken to and from the right place, use our floor tag. The floor tag is part of a 125 kHz LF system and designed to be embedded in the floor – out of the way. All that is needed is to drill a small hole, drop in the tag, and refill the hole. Tag dimensions are 105 x 16 (diameter) mmWe typically install our Ideal125 LF reader in the forklift, connected to its terminal wich forwards the positional data to the WMS, etc. The antenna is mounted under the forklift.
For the packaging industry that manufactures for food and beverages companies, we have a UHF wet inlay tag suited for mounting inside the carton rolls.
We also have an LF 134.2 kHz tag especially developed for ID of Tambours in the paper industry. This tag is especially developed to handle the high demands of ruggedness and good readability when placed against a metal surface.
For tracking of tool (drills, milling machines etc) auto-selection and wear, we have a miniature glass tag working at 125 kHz. This is placed inside a milled slot in the tool and is ideally read by our handherld reader USB125 or similar.
For customers that still use the pc3103/xx (OIS-P) tags from Identec solution (Baumer) wich production were closed down in 2018, we offer customers a refurbishment program that makes the tags as new.The refurbishment program includes:
– exchange of battery = prolonged lifetime
– test of tags functions
– test of micro wave functions.
– The program is based on a minimum tag volume of 20 pc per batch or more.We can also offer a wide range of cable ties with LF/HF/UHF tags from HellermannTyton.
