The award-winning T6000e ODV-2D industrial printer with RFID.

“Users are increasingly facing requirements to both encode RFID labels and verify their barcodes…when users realize that they can have both in a single printer, driven by a single print-job, they quickly realize the cost and time savings that the T6000e offers.”

BREA, Calif. (PRWEB)
March 23, 2021

TSC Printronix Auto ID, a leading manufacturer of thermal barcode printing technology, upgraded the award-winning T6000e enterprise industrial printer adding integrated RFID and barcode inspection capabilities. Users can now print and encode RFID labels and inspect and grade the quality of printed barcodes in a single pass.

With the ability to print, encode, and perform barcode verification at the same time on the updated T6000e, one printer can now do the work of multiple devices to create a new level of productivity and cost savings. No longer are two separate machines needed to perform two completely different functions. This is a unique function not available on any other printer currently on the market.

The newly released printer joins the fleet of TSC Printronix Auto ID printers powered by SOTI Connect remote printer management software. IT personnel are able to remotely manage and monitor mission-critical devices, configure settings, setup security, push firmware updates once out in the field, and get real-time visibility and control from a completely central, remote location.

The printer is also extremely easy to set up and configure with features such as a pre-mounted barcode verifier, RFID auto-calibration, barcode GPS functionality that automatically detects and anticipates barcode alignment, and much more.

RFID functionalities include TSC Printronix Auto ID Encode During Print firmware that renders inlay placement issues a thing of the past. The T6000e supports high-speed encoding and can encode high-memory chips using advanced commands. A wide variety of label types are supported by this printer, from standard smart labels to on-metal tags to thick Returnable Transport Item (RTI) labels to rigid horticultural tags, and many other varieties as well. Labels with a pitch as low as 0.625-inches can be encoded with precision and reliability.

With RFID and barcode inspection fully integrated into the printer, reports that show barcode quality and information, RFID data, and combined statistics can be easily generated. Reports are available in various formats, including XML and CSV for integration with host systems or viewed in the free version of the PrintNet Enterprise utility.

The optical scanner on the printer finds, reads, and grades up to 50 barcodes per label. Each barcode is graded using ISO standards and given a letter and numeric score. The grading score includes details of the ISO standard, the type of barcode, the barcode data, and the label image. The reporting capability of every label helps organizations defend chargeback fees and penalties.

The optical scanner and RFID reader are integrated into the printer’s main control system to enable action if a bad label is detected. If the label is scanned and determined to be below the acceptable ISO standard or the RFID reader detects a faulty label, the printer will automatically back up the label, overstrike the bad label so it is not used, and reprint a new label without operator intervention.

“Users are increasingly facing requirements to both encode RFID labels and verify their barcodes. Traditionally, these have been separate functions – even in people’s minds, but when users realize that they can have both in a single printer, driven by a single print-job, they quickly realize the cost and time savings that the T6000e offers,” states Chris Brown, RFID Subject Matter Expert at TSC Printronix Auto ID. “We see many breakthrough moments when speaking with end-users, service bureaus, and resellers about this new solution.”

With just 6 seconds of exposure, UV-C light has been scientifically proven to remove or inactivate, 99% of the SARS-CoV-2 virus from its targeted surface.

We have been developing our product portfolio to assist the education and business sectors in adapting to the health and safety processes needed to move forward from this pandemic.

LONDON (PRWEB)
March 22, 2021

D-Tech has championed the benefits of laptop loans in libraries, public spaces and workplaces through its computeIT automated device loan lockers for several years. The RFID technology developer has been seeking a satisfactory solution to the hygiene concerns of laptop sharing raised by COVID-19 and is delighted to announce the launch of its computeIT UV-C Sanitising Unit. The unit can be added to an existing computeIT locker or used as a standalone device cleaning system.

James Breakell, Managing Director of D-Tech International, believes the touch-free sanitising technology is a positive addition to the roadmap for returning to some form of normality in education and workplace settings. He says: “computeIT UV-C uses high-intensity UV-C light technology to remove 99.9% of bacteria, sanitising any device within 30 seconds. With just 6 seconds of exposure, UV-C light has been scientifically proven to remove, or inactivate, 99% of the SARS-CoV-2 virus from its targeted surface.

“The unit is easy to use and the whole process is touch-free. We encourage users to sanitise their hands whilst waiting for, and if necessary whilst using their device to ensure it remains Covid safe.

“At D-Tech we have been reviewing our product portfolio in an effort to assist the education and business sectors in adapting to the health and safety processes needed to move forward from this pandemic, and the launch of the UV-C sanitising technology comes hand in hand with our budget-friendly computeIT LITE laptop loan locker.

Like the other inductive sensors in our portfolio, these provide wear-resistant, non-contact position detection of metallic objects.

These, however, are members of Balluff’s Smart Automation and Monitoring System (SAMS) portfolio—SAMS. That means they’re packed with additional features.

First, they include condition monitoring which reports the sensor’s internal temperature, relative humidity, and inclination, plus vibration monitoring in real time via IO-Link. The sensor’s operating hours and more functions are also available using IO-Link.

Second, LEDs on the sensor can show the sensor’s signal quality, blink when sent a ping via IO-Link to help you locate it, or perform other useful functions.

And third, they are IP68 and IP69K rated and have Ecolab approval. In addition, they have passed what Balluff calls Washdown Plus testing, which simulates over 1,000 washdown cycles—triple the typical number of cycles for IP69K testing.

The M12 BES05Y7 delivers an operating distance of 4 mm while the M18 BES05WY delivers an operating distance of 8 mm. Both provide an extended temperature range of -40 … 85 °C and two switching outputs.

The top features are:

• Teachable switching point
• Washdown Plus, designed especially for the most demanding cleaning processes
• Hygiene class materials (1.4404/PBT stainless steel)
• Expanded IO-Link functionality using SAMS (Smart Automation and Monitoring System)
• Smart features, such as internal temperature and relative humidity monitoring
