Avery Dennison's AD-641 incorporates scalable EPC memory up to 512 bits using NXP G2X silicon. A cousin of the AD-840 and AD-843, this 2.76 inch square design features familiar sloop technology to deliver 360 degree performance in application across the 860 - 960MHz frequency band.
The large antenna design is optimized to support dense read environments where it is desired to query select items in an area. Through leveraging pre-programmed unique ID's from NXP silicon and balancing performance characteristics of the antenna design, the AD-641 supports a targeted inquiry process. The AD-641 specifically targets carton and pallet asset management.
Below, the 360 degree angular performance of AD-641 is shown.
Features:
Designed for global UHF frequency (860-960MHz) carton and pallet asset management in dense environments
Sloop technology for 360 degree performance and orientation insensitivity
Unique 32 bit serial number, factory programmed and locked
240 bit EPC memory with an additional 512 bit user memory option
EPCglobal C1G2 1.0.9 certified, compliant to EPCglobal C1G2 1.1.0
Available in tightly pitched high yield / high capacity rolls which integrate seamlessly into high-volume converting processes
Inlay circuit is tuned for global frequency operations for single solution fit
Radiation patterns enables reads any angle or in any orientation
Unique 32 bit serial number, factory programmed and locked, eliminating the need to program tags downstream with unique numbers
Extra user memory enables more applications that require additional data beyond the EPC number such as life cycle verification, warranty tracking, expiry dates, work in process, routing or quality data
The EAS security feature allows the tag to be used as an anti-theft device by sending an alarm signal to a reader if the tag has not been deactivated by the business application software when moving through a reader gate
Read protection helps to prevent unauthorized memory access by requiring a password handshake with the reader and can protect potentially sensitive data in the memory
Calibrate custom command send a continuous data stream that enables easier tag to reader communications evaluation and application performance fine tuning
Benefits:
Strong read ranges and read rates improve system data reliability and increases efficiency, throughput. Reduces costs associated with missing data or line stoppages
Additional user memory allows you to configure your tag data for custom applications, extending the utility of the EPC solution to support additional efficiency and service improvement programs like carrying a maintenance record, WIP updatable record or product expiration dates for asset utilization management
Helps speed audit/inventory process, security features reduced theft and loss, thereby reducing operational costs
Markets and Applications:
Supply Chain carton, pallet and item level tagging
