RFID Tag Manufacturer

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tags are small devices used for tracking and identification. They are typically made from durable materials such as PET, PVC, or paper, depending on the application. The chip inside the tag stores data and operates at various frequencies, including Low Frequency (LF: 125-134 kHz), High Frequency (HF: 13.56 MHz), or Ultra High Frequency (UHF: 860-960 MHz).

Applications range from inventory management and asset tracking to contactless payments, access control, and logistics. RFID tags are versatile, offering solutions for industries like retail, healthcare, transportation, and supply chain management.

### RFID Tag FAQ

1. What materials are RFID tags made of?
RFID tags are made from materials such as PVC, PET, paper, or synthetic polymers to suit various environments and applications.

2. Can RFID tags be customized?
Yes, RFID tags can be customized in terms of size, shape, material, printing (logos or barcodes), and chip type to meet specific needs.

3. What types of chips are available for RFID tags?
Common chips include NXP (e.g., MIFARE, ICODE), Impinj (Monza series), Alien, and others, depending on frequency and application.

4. What are the frequency ranges of RFID tags?
RFID tags operate in three main frequency ranges:
– Low Frequency (LF): 125-134 kHz
– High Frequency (HF): 13.56 MHz
– Ultra High Frequency (UHF): 860-960 MHz

5. What is the read range of RFID tags?
The read range depends on the frequency: LF (a few centimeters), HF (up to 1 meter), and UHF (up to 15 meters or more).

6. Can RFID tags function in harsh environments?
Yes, RFID tags can be designed for harsh environments, including water resistance, high temperatures, and chemical exposure.

7. What are the typical applications of RFID tags?
Applications include asset tracking, inventory management, supply chain logistics, access control, contactless payments, and healthcare.

8. Can RFID tags be reused?
Passive RFID tags are usually for single use, but some can be reprogrammed. Active RFID tags with batteries are reusable.

9. Do you provide in-stock RFID tags?
Yes, standard RFID tags are often available in stock, but customized tags may require additional production time.

10. What is the lifespan of an RFID tag?
Passive RFID tags can last 10-20 years, while active RFID tags typically last 3-5 years, depending on battery life.

11. Can RFID tags be used on metal surfaces?
Yes, special on-metal RFID tags with anti-metal layers are designed to work effectively on metal surfaces.

12. How secure are RFID tags?
Security features depend on the chip and system. Some tags include encryption, password protection, or unique identifiers for added security.

13. What is the production lead time for custom RFID tags?
Lead times vary but typically range from 2-4 weeks for customized RFID tags, depending on the complexity of the order.

14. Can RFID tags work without a power source?
Yes, passive RFID tags do not require a battery; they are powered by the electromagnetic field of the reader.

15. What is the cost of an RFID tag?
The cost depends on the type, chip, material, customization, and order quantity. Standard tags are more affordable, while custom tags are priced higher.
