UHF IDENT System

By connecting UHF read/write heads to the IDENT Control family, logistics applications with a large sensing range are now possible. The compact UHF handheld readers are very fast, enable a sensing range of several meters and can be connected via an M12 plug, while the passive transponders are extremely cost-effective. They are therefore ideal for intralogistics.

All common frequencies can be connected to the IDENTControl system in mixed mode. Standardized operating, the universal command structure for the PLC program, and the sturdy, EMC-proof design with metal housing make commissioning simple and safe. The range of read/ write heads has been extended with the addition of the UHF family of antennas.

The compact UHF antenna is easy to connect via one M12 plug and has been well-received in the field of intralogistics. Containers and pallets can be identified as easily as car bodies in the automotive industry. Because passive data carriers in various industry construction types as well as in the form of labels are inexpensively available and because we can achieve sensing ranges up to 6 meters, this system is a real alternative to the commonly used barcode. It features significant advantages: It writes data; no direct visual contact is needed; it is not sensitive to dirt; etc.

The clever technology of the read/write head transmits on one frequency and the transponders respond on a free channel in order to prevent distortion and interference.
