The read/write head can be connected the traditional way using cable, or can be located directly on the processor unit housing. Our most flexible and modern solution is the universal BIS V processor unit. For high frequency (HF) RFID solutions we offer three possible combinations: You can combine up to four read/write heads on the BIS V processor unit in addition to connecting an IO-Link device. Many read/write heads can be connected to one IO-Link master, and all IO-Link devices can be flexibly combined with each other. By using an all-in-one read head you have everything – read head and processor unit – in one unit. For ultra-high frequency (UHF) systems you can select from special highperformance UHF processor units. The multi-frequency BIS V processor unit is also an option. Or you can read the UHF data carriers using one of our handheld readers, for example at manual workstations. The most important benefits Ideal for reliable tool identification at short ranges ■ – High performance and flexible even in machining centers with coolants and lubricants ■ – Other applications: Workpiece transport with conveyor systems, FTS and pallet transport systems, assembly technology and resource organization ■ – Wear-free, maintenance-free and insensitive to dirt ■ – The most important benefits High transmission speeds and large data quantities at ranges up to 400 mm ■ – Seamless integration in applications through global RFID standards ISO 15693 and ISO 14443A ■ – Customer-specific developments ■ – Applications: Parts tracking at close range, production control (palletizing, data recording on the workpiece itself, ...). ■ – The most important benefits For dynamic processes with great read distances up to 6 m and more ■ – Easy integration in applications using global standard interfaces and global standards: ISO 18000-6C and EPC Gen2 Class1 ■ – Simultaneous detection of many data carriers ■ – Complete tailored system solutions realizable ■ – Applications: Traceability, tracking of automation processes, intralogistics ■ – Controller Universal processor unit UHF processor units Mobile UHF read/write devices UHF antennas UHF data carriers 6 1 Controller 2 Processor unit with LF read/write heads 3 Universal processor unit 4 LF processor unit 5 LF read/write heads 6 LF data carriers Controller Universal processor unit Network block HF processor unit HF antenna HF read/write heads with IO-Link HF read/write heads HF read/write heads with
