RFID labels have a key advantage. They enable the highly efficient, contactless and automated identification and localisation of products and components using radio waves from a distance (RFID = “radio frequency identification”). This makes them the key to a quick and simple implementation of automation solutions in production and logistics (Industrie 4.0 and IoT), unlocking an enormous efficiency potential!

The strengths of RFID labels really come to play in all applications in which products need to be detected, located, registered, stored or monitored automatically. However, until now there has been an obstacle regarding use in rough ambient conditions – the sensitive RFID inlay.

The restart of the world economy following the Covid crisis has caused delivery problems and raw material shortages in many places and industries. There are long queues of container ships waiting to enter major ports all over the world, while raw material markets are depleted and the demand for basic components far outstrips the supply. This has resulted in price explosions as well as reduced production in many areas – including conveyors that are now idle and even temporary plant shutdowns. Not at S+P Samson – we made provisions early on to ensure that our customers can fully rely and build on our excellent reliability of supply even during Covid! 

Two market leaders in their respective fields, S+P Samson and Polytec Robotics, have combined their individual strengths in a cooperation that will enable them to supply robotic systems together for identification in industrial processes. The fully automated identification system is based on the extremely robust and heat-resistant labels and tags supplied by S+P Samson and has been specially designed for the demanding ambient conditions of the steel industry, while the tried and tested robot systems are provided by Polytec Robotics.

S+P Samson has launched a new, affordable starter kit for its innovative RFID tags. The ideal opportunity to start your test run in the field of RFID! Our innovative RFID tags are based on a combination of our extremely robust GRAPHIPLAST plastic tags and RFID. They make it possible to identify and locate products and to document material movements!
