1. What is an RFID Printer (and Why Do You Need One)? An RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) printer looks almost identical to a standard barcode label printer. However, it performs two distinct actions simultaneously: It prints: It prints visual data (price, barcode, SKU, logo) on the label surface. It encodes:  Inside the printer, an antenna sends a radio signal to the tiny chip embedded in the label (the inlay), writing a unique code (usually an Electronic Product Code or EPC) to it. …

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) labels are the backbone of modern asset tracking, inventory management, and supply chain visibility. Unlike traditional barcodes, RFID labels contain a chip and antenna that enable wireless data transmission. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) labels are no longer just a technical upgrade—they are a strategic enabler of efficiency, compliance, and customer satisfaction. The right label size and format can reduce shrinkage, accelerate inventory count …

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology has become a cornerstone of modern tracking, inventory management, and identification systems across various industries. One of the most flexible and widely adopted forms of RFID technology is the RFID label. RFID labels, often confused with RFID tags, combine the benefits of RFID with the convenience of traditional adhesive labels. These smart labels are transforming how businesses manage assets, inventory, logistics, and retail operations. In th …

In today's fast-paced and hyper-connected world, knowing where things are in real time is critical to operational efficiency, security, and asset visibility. This is where Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS) come in—powerful technologies that allow organizations to track the movement and position of people and assets with high accuracy. One of the foundational technologies that enable RTLS is Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). This article dives deep into how RFID tags enable RTLS, the v …

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology has revolutionized supply chain management, asset tracking, and security verification across industries. One specific category of RFID tags that plays a critical role in tamper detection and cargo/container security is the RFID Seal Tag. Unlike standard RFID tags, seal tags combine electronic identification with a mechanical locking mechanism to create a tamper-evident, secure, and traceable seal. This article explores the complete lifecycle of RF …
