Its design allows for item-level identification and inventory management, taking into account the specific requirements associated with food packaging and handling.
The EOS-450 MW series inlays feature a slim design and antennas developed to resist electrical arcing and sparking under certain microwave usage conditions. This allows for their integration into certain food packaging with RFID tags intended for microwave defrosting or heating processes.
RFID Applications in Food and Catering:
The two variants utilize different RAIN RFID integrated circuit platforms.
The Impinj M830-based EOS-450 MW features 128-bit EPC memory and incorporates functions such as AutoTune™, Gen2X enhancements, and technologies designed to increase read range and backscatter efficiency.
The NXP UCODE X-based EOS-450 MW, on the other hand, offers configurable 96- to 208-bit EPC memory, up to 32 bits of user memory, Gen2v2 compatibility, and self-healing memory protections. It is also designed to provide high encoding speeds and low power consumption.
EOS-450 MW inlays can remain in compatible food packaging throughout its lifecycle and can be used in applications such as inventory and expiration date management, tracking and traceability, loss prevention, and self-checkout systems in grocery stores and quick-service restaurants (QSRs).
