Optimum read ranges in challenging environments

Industry segments: Beauty and Personal Care, Healthcare

AD-164 U9 inlays from Avery Dennison are designed for tagging a wide range of items, particularly housewares, beauty & personal care, and pharmaceuticals.

Built for the UHF frequency band, the inlays feature a 60 x 4 mm antenna with a global design. It ensures excellent broadband performance (860-930 MHz) that can achieve up to 7 meters read distance on high dielectric materials such as glass, plastics and near liquid (results may vary).

The slender form factor and rectangular shape further contributes to the versatile use in retail oriented applications to increase inventory accuracy, improve supply chain agility, and enhance visibility across all channels. AD-164u U9 features the UCODE 9 chip that is equipped with 96 bits of EPC memory, including a 96-bit Tag IDentifier (TID) with a 48-bit unique serial number factory-encoded into the TID. The IC offers a Self Adjust feature to maximize product performance in challenging environments and has an improved read and write sensitivity and faster encoding speed compared to NXP UCODE 8. Delivery formats include dry, wet and label.
