RFID electronic tags system is an important means of asset marking and logistics management. Electronic tags are widely used in logistics, industrial asset management and other fields.
Sometimes we need to attach RFID electronic tags to metal surfaces, such as shelves, or mechanical equipment. These shelves and equipment are made of metal. So can ordinary RFID tags be directly attached to metal for use?
Let’s look into a case first
In 2021, a Mexican customer came to us with RFIDHY and needed to manage his warehouse. He reported to us that there was a problem with the UHF tags provided to him by his supplier, and they were often missed. He wants to test our labels and replace their old labels if they don’t miss a read. Through the video connection, we noticed that there are many metal objects piled up in his warehouse. Through remote assistance, we helped customers adjust the placement of card readers and antennas and the orientation of items in the warehouse. After the Doron test, the problem of missing labels was solved. The customer was very happy and still proofed and tested our labels.
After
After the original label is used up, the customer starts to use our label. He said that we are more professional and service is more in place, and he also believes in the quality of our products.
It is not difficult to see from this case that the metal environment will affect the reading of the label.
anti-metaal etiket
Let’s do a test
This is an ordinary UHF tag with a regular Alien H4 chip. Now let’s stick this label on the carton to measure his reading distance. We can see that the maximum reading distance of this tag can reach 8 meters through our UHF handheld card reader.
Toe, we take a label of the same specification and stick it on the metal shelf to try his reading distance again. We found this label to be completely unreadable with a card reader. It’s not that the reading distance is shortened, but that it can’t be read at all.
Why does this happen?
Passiewe RFID elektroniese etikette is radiogolwe wat deur die ontvangskaartmasjien uitgestraal word. Skakel die energie van die radiogolf om in elektrisiteit, om sodoende die skyfie te aktiveer. Die sein word dan deur die antenna van die merker gestuur en deur die kaartmasjien ontvang. Op hierdie manier, die proses van lees en skryf van die etiket deur die kaartmasjien kan voltooi word.
Egter, aangesien die metaal die radiogolwe absorbeer, dit is gelykstaande aan die heeltemal afskerming van die sein. Ons etikette verloor hul energiebron en kan natuurlik nie behoorlik funksioneer nie.

Specific anti-metal RFID electronic tags
Daarom, to use RFID tags on metal surfaces, we need to use specific anti-metal tags.
Such as this flexible anti-metal tag. After we put this label on the metal shelf, let’s take a look at its reading distance. Natuurlik, the reading distance can still reach more than 8 meter.
It is because of the special isolation material on the back of this anti-metal label. This material can completely isolate the interference of metal to the signal. Dus, die sein van die kaartleser kan direk op die etiket self inwerk. Op hierdie manier, die kaartleser kan etikette glad lees en skryf.
Ligbestand
Egter, dit is opmerklik dat hierdie buigsame anti-metaal etiket nie bestand is teen lig nie. As jy dit vir 'n lang tyd in die buitelug moet gebruik, jy benodig nog 'n ligbestande metaalbestande etiket. Soos hierdie PCB-etiket. Of pas 'n ligdigte omhulsel aan vir hierdie buigsame metaalbestande etiket. Op hierdie manier, sy dienslewe kan verleng word.
RFIDHY het duisende RFID-etikette. Hulle materiaal, groottes, and antennas are all different to suit a variety of scenarios.
Before deciding to use a certain RFID tag product, be sure to let professionals have an in-depth understanding of the product’s use scenario and environment. And do field tests.
Only in this way can the use of radio frequency tag products achieve the expected results and avoid risks.
