Vizinex releases new RFID feature

Vizinex RFID has unveiled several applications of its asset-tracking RFID tags, says TMC Net.

The company's Sentry AST tags feature a platform designed for the demanding sterilisation and durability requirements of the healthcare industry.

The importance of the safety of patients can never be overstated and thus the two separate RFID tags that are offered by Vizinex, come with different sterilisation requirements, reports RFID World Canada.

The small footprint mount-on-metal tag is designed for locating high valued medical and laboratory assets. The Sentry ASTTM Autoclave tag can withstand a large number of autoclave sterilization cycles.

Phil Koppenhofer, VP of sales and marketing said that Vizinex tags are made very differently even though they help to fulfil the same goal as other existing tags.

According to him, these tags are not only made to withstand high temperatures but also to withstand repeated temperature cycles between hot and cold.

The company builds its own three-dimensional inlays and due to this they can engineer a tag for the application specific purpose while competitors attempt to manually adjust the parameters of the basic tag, which can lead to potential failure points.
