TSL® are proud to announce that SEKISUI Aerospace‘s RFID solution was recently made a finalist for the RFID Journal 2023 award for “Best Manufacturing RFID or IoT Implementation”. The TSL® 2128P Bluetooth® UHF RFID Reader provides SEKISUI Aerospace with handheld, long range UHF RFID reading and writing, enabling fast and accurate data collection to feed into their ‘Visual Factory’ software, powered by Xemelgo.
The RFID solution was deployed over three facilities and helped with 3100 daily jobs, providing many returns on investment including 3% increased productivity, a reduction in missing assets and $5 million cost avoidance over the next five years.
The TSL® 2128P Bluetooth® UHF RFID Reader
The 2128P Bluetooth® UHF RFID Reader builds upon TSL®’s successful handheld Readers by including a larger High Gain UHF antenna for up to 9 m (29.5 ft) of read range, as well as enhanced operating modes and special features such as tag de-duplication at the hardware level. The patented TSL® ePop-Loq® connector allows data and charge connections to be passed from the reader to an attached device, such as a smartphone or handheld terminal.
