Flexible UHF On-Metal RFID Label ID-70X30 (70 × 30 mm)

A 70 × 30 mm on-metal RFID label for returnable steel containers

Steel totes, roll cages and metal-framed trolleys circulate between plant, DC and store, and a paper RFID label reads poorly or not at all once it is stuck to them. The ID-70X30 is a flexible UHF on-metal label sized for that fleet: 70 × 30 mm leaves room for a printed container or location code, and the thin body lies flat on the steel. Read range is up to 6 m, set by the reader antenna and the metal around the label.

Where it is used

• Returnable steel totes, cages and roll containers
• Trolleys and handling equipment passing a dock door
• Bin and location labels on racking faces
• Metal spare-part bins in MRO stores

Placement for repeatable dock-door reads

Put the label in the same position on every container, on a long face where fork tines and stacked neighbours will not scrape it. Keep the printed side facing outward rather than down at the floor, and avoid deep channels in the steel that shadow the tag from the antenna. Consistent placement is what makes a container read every time it passes a gate reader or dock-door portal.
