Temperature and moisture measurement Along with RFID chips, Lapp Kabel has also developed RFID sensors which can be integrated into a cable. These sensors can be used to monitor certain aspects of a cable. These include, for example, temperature and moisture measurement.Lapp Kabel is delighted to help you innovate for success with RFID. Our consulting engineers are available to discuss your initial requirements. Storage of measurement logs The law requires regular checking of cables and connectors used for mobile power supply applications. Since RFID transponders can store data and are rewritable, they can be used to store measurement logs i.e. the latest measurement logs can be stored directly on the component that has been checked. This allows the data to be accessed at any time and place as required. Inventory management Due to the large quantities of cables and connectors in use, a lot of effort is put into handling these products. By connecting the products to an inventory management system using modern RFID technology, inventory management processes can be optimised significantly. The potential for manual data entry errors is minimised considerably, which in turn reduces process costs.

Identification It is often the case that several companies are contracted to work on setting up the same event. Whereas one company will be responsible for ensuring sound quality, another company will be in charge of the lighting. Naturally, the companies sometimes use the same infrastructure. Cables and connectors are often disassembled and then reassembled elsewhere, making it hard to keep track of them. RFID offers a solution to this problem by definitively identifying all of the components. An RFID chip is used to identify the company the component belongs to, preventing any mix-ups.

Cables and connectors with RFID

All of the aforementioned advantages of RFID have now been combined with high- quality products from Lapp Kabel. RFID chips and RFID sensors are integrated into the cable and connector during production. This has no effect on the high flexibility and physical durability of the components. This innovation allows the cables and connectors to be used for new applications, especially in the field of light and sound engineering:
