In industries where tracking assets in challenging environments is crucial, the ruggedness of RFID tags is a key factor in choosing the right technology. At Starport Technologies, we understand the importance of durable and reliable RFID tags, especially for applications that require outdoor exposure or are subjected to harsh conditions. Here’s an in-depth look at how rugged our RFID tags are, ensuring they meet your operational demands efficiently.
Engineered for Durability
RFID tags are composed of materials specifically chosen for their durability and resilience. The selection process focuses on the tag’s ability to withstand various environmental factors, particularly outdoor conditions. At Starport Technologies, we offer a range of tags designed to cater to different levels of ruggedness required by diverse applications.
The Pinnacle of Ruggedness: Portunus and Terminator Tags
For the ultimate in durability, our Portunus and Terminator metal-mount tags are unrivaled. These tags are engineered to withstand outdoor exposure for several years without degradation. They are ideal for industries such as construction, oil and gas, and other sectors where tags are exposed to extreme conditions regularly. The robustness of these tags ensures that you can track your assets effectively over long periods, even in the most demanding environments.
Versatile Durability: Adamas and Orion Tags
The Adamas and Orion tags, while also capable of outdoor usage, are designed with a life expectancy of approximately one year in such environments. These tags are suitable for less intense outdoor applications or where tag longevity can be balanced with cost-effectiveness. When used indoors, both Adamas and Orion tags offer many years of service, making them excellent choices for applications like asset management within facilities or tracking in controlled environments.
Disposable Yet Effective: Supply Chain Tags
In contrast to our rugged tags, we also offer supply chain tags, which are generally less rugged and considered “disposable” after their use through the supply chain. These tags are designed for one-time use and are perfect for tracking items through the logistics and distribution process, where long-term durability is not as critical.
Longevity Indoors and Outdoors
The longevity of RFID tags significantly increases when used indoors, where environmental factors such as UV light, moisture, and temperature fluctuations are more controlled. All our tags, including the Portunus, Terminator, Adamas, and Orion, are designed to offer extended service life in indoor settings, ensuring reliable performance and cost-efficiency.
Conclusion
Understanding the ruggedness of RFID tags is crucial for implementing a system that meets your specific needs. Whether you require tags that can endure multiple years of outdoor exposure or need a cost-effective solution for one-time use in supply chains, Starport Technologies has the right options for you. Our RFID tags are designed with durability in mind, providing you with reliable, efficient solutions no matter the application.
