Schreiner ProTech, together with Siemens, has developed a new UHF RFID Label with a 4K chip for Siemens’ new Simatic RF600 reader generation, which has been successful in the marketplace following its recent launch. According to Siemens, the 4K chip offers 53 times more storage capacity than conventional RFID solutions.
The new UHF RFID label with a 4K chip is designed for end user applications requiring an elevated chip storage volume. Examples include complex processes in production control. In addition, it is used for permanent storage of production-relevant data on the product or transport container in the automotive and process industries.
According to Siemens, it opted for Schreiner Group as its development partner for three reasons: the industry-specific process knowledge of Schreiner ProTech, the specific RFID label manufacturing know-how available at the Competence Center Schreiner LogiData, plus existing knowledge of suitable suppliers and cooperation partners.
The challenging functionalities specified by Siemens were already achieved after the initial measurement results, as well as the targeted market launch at this year’s Hanover Fair. “As a result, we managed to present the first production-level UHF RFID label with a 4K chip on the market together with a new Siemens reader generation, as planned,” said Klaus Müller, product manager, RFID, at Siemens.
“For years, we’ve intensively been driving proprietary developments in this field together with our Competence Center Schreiner LogiData,” added Michael Drollmann, sales director at Schreiner ProTech. “We’re delighted that we’ve now been able to successfully leverage this expertise in an important contract development for a leading technology corporation like Siemens, as well.”
