RFID media are built into or onto work piece carriers, for example, and are generally used for production control. The latest approaches use RFID in the area of production logistics, where e-kanban ensures the availability of replacement parts, or components already tagged by the supplier are verified at the point of installation.

UHF RFID transponders (‘electronic labels’) detect goods of all kinds within the logistic chain. They identify and store production data and are used to trace the paths of individual goods. Transponders have become an essential control element in logistic chains and production processes. The textile and elastic UHF RFID transponder from the RFID company deister electronic can be directly integrated into flexible materials, quickly and accurately providing the information required during the production process.

The experts of deister electronic also developed the new compact industrial readers TSU100 and TSU200 for short and mid-range applications in logistics, transport and industry. The robust IP67 housing protects the antenna against rugged environment and provides perfect reading results (simplifying installation).

The robust TSU 200 UHF RFID reader was developed for applications in both, industry and in the areas of parking management and access control. The device is used for managed processes in the automobile industry and in automation technology. Production parts are recorded in seconds by the UHF reader. High temperatures, dust, dirt, oil, grease, and water are just some of the environmental influences in the industrial environment that the new TSU 200 from deister electronic can withstand. A small, flat, and compact IP67 aluminum ABS housing (dimensions: 175 x 200 x 60 mm) protects the built-in antenna and electronics. The compact TSU 200 UFH write/read head supports the ISO 18000-6C and EPCglobal GEN 2 standards.
