Definition of RFID label:
- Soft RFID labels are a type of label made of paper with an embedded electronic chip to prevent theft for goods in stores.
- Currently, there are two types of RFID labels: hard labels and soft labels.
- Many people choose soft labels because they are cheaper, but improper use may reduce effectiveness.
- Applying soft labels is relatively simple, though not everyone knows how.
- Soft RFID labels are essentially barcode labels with embedded electronic chips.
- They emit a magnetic field when passing through RFID gates, helping the gates detect items that have not been demagnetized and trigger alerts.
- The demagnetization table for soft labels is a demagnetizing device within the soft RFID label.
- Security RFID labels emit an alarm sound when passing through security gates without demagnetization, aiding in protecting goods during inspection and control.
- Barcode Technology provides several classifications to help you understand more about security RFID labels.
1. How to apply soft RFID labels to products.
- Label position: Soft labels are designed to resemble barcode labels of the product.
- Therefore, they are often applied on the back or side near the barcode.
- Applying soft RFID labels in this position helps camouflage them and appear more natural.
- Ensure not to apply labels over product information.
- Application method: Apply soft RFID labels on a flat surface to prevent folding.
- Tightly adhere the edges of the label to ensure it sticks firmly to the product.
2. How to store paper RFID labels.
- Store RFID labels in dry air conditions and at normal temperatures.
- Keep goods with RFID labels at least 1 meter away from demagnetization tables.
- Keeping them close may render the labels ineffective and unable to protect goods.
3. Usage notes.
Do not apply soft RFID labels on metal products as they cannot protect these items.
Due to embedded electronic chips, avoid placing RFID labels on products used in microwave ovens.
+ Soft RFID label:
- Soft RFID labels are label-shaped with embedded electronic chips.
- Used to apply to goods.
- Can emit an alarm when passing through security gates without demagnetization.
– Soft RFID labels come in various sizes:
- Soft RFID label 2.5×2.5
- Soft RFID label 3×3
- Soft RFID label 3×4
- Common frequency: RF 8.2Mhz
- Frequency: AM 58Hkz
….
+ Hard RFID label: A type of label made of plastic with embedded chips, pins, or tie wires to attach to goods. Types of hard RFID labels include:
- Hard RFID labels for clothing: with iron pins.
- Hard RFID labels for bottles: with tie wires, used to protect bottled goods like wine.
- Hard RFID labels for boxes: with large radius tie wires, used to protect boxed goods like milk.
- Avoid applying to metal-coated products.
- For bottles and jars, apply at suitable, secure positions.
- Ensure labels do not cover production or expiration dates.
- Apply labels flat to prevent edges from folding.
- Avoid applying labels to leather or plastic surfaces to maintain adhesive strength.
