UHF RFID Reader Systems Capture Laundry Tags in Motion

Identification solutions company Datamars has released two new RFID readers for its laundry-management solutions that are intended to make the reading of linen or workwear tags faster, as well as provide greater accuracy, for large-scale laundry businesses. Both serve the clean textiles management process, after laundry has been washed and dried and needs to be sorted and shipped to a customer. The Open Tunnel and UHF Portal Plus follow the 2017 release of a small UHF RFID tag known as the FT401 Laundry Chip. The new technology is being used by industrial laundry companies in Europe and the United States, according to Julien Buros, Datamars' textile product and service director, in order to gain a faster and more accurate view of the cleaned textiles that they pack and deliver to customers: hotels, hospitals and elder-care facilities.
