Great Benefits of EAS and RFID Combination

, , , , ,

TrustTag's Security tags with RFID Technology

Today TrustTag presents our dual-frequency tags with a great pleasure! It is based on suggestions and comments that several customers have requested. So we believe our customer will benefit from this combination technology a lot. RFID, which stands for radio frequency identification, it has been used in a variety of applications. When it comes to retail and inventory management, this technology has become an unstoppable force.

A dual-purpose tag can offer its retail customers a means of leveraging RFID tools for in-store inventory visibility while continuing to use the EAS tags as a theft deterrent—without having to apply two separate tags to their products.

TrustTag's RETAIL SECURITY TAGS WITH RFID

Here’s how dual technology can help improve your management:

  • Better inventory control:

With RFID technology, thousands of tags can be scanned in seconds reducing the operational time to a great extent. It does not have any line-of-sight limitations. RFID systems can automatically pick up tag IDs from a distance and, in some cases, through obstacles between the tag and the reader. This makes the process fast and reliable.

  • Cost-saving

Although RFID technology is still typically expensive to set up and use, RFID systems bring their own cost benefits, such as reduced labor costs and improved efficiency. It provides better control and visibility at each step of the supply chain. For example, clothing industries maintain large stocks which are difficult to manage manually. RFID technology allows them to improve their efficiency, reduce time consumption and minimize human errors.

  • Improve shopping experience

RFID can also help reduce wait times at the checkout as well, while traditional barcodes require line of sight for scanning, and each item has to be scanned individually, an entire shopping cart can be scanned all at once, instantly, with no items being removed from the basket. This is the time-saving advantage of RFID, where entire areas can be scanned in seconds.

  • Durable and reusable

The traditional RFID hangtag and labels can get tampered and damaged due to wear and tear. But, RFID tags are highly durable and long lasting. They do not get damaged in harsh environments, heat, dirt, and mud.

  • Data Security

The RFID tags have a dedicated chip with a unique number that cannot be copied. It also reduces any chances of missed items when used to collect data on large numbers of items at once thereby minimizing chances of a human error. Moreover, as compared to traditional tags and barcodes. RFID tags can store more data in the non-volatile memory.

Auto-Retractable Spider Wrap

, ,

 

With many market researches, including interviewing the retailers and questionnaire survey, TrustTag has found that over 90% of the retailers think that it costs too much time to apply the spider wrap to box and retract the lanyards back after detaching. The costs of manpower and time invested in this process has been a headache for retailers.

Based on the real-time needs of the market, TrusTag is honored to announce that our R&D Team has developed a new functional spider wrap: auto-retractable spider wrap.

TrustTag’s auto-retractable spider wrap is spring-loaded with the power installation and the cables can retract back by itself with the retractable spring. This function can save a lot of time either on applying the spider wrap to box or detaching it from box. When applying, the auto-retractable spider wrap can grip the box so that the lanyards will be tight and organized without too much adjustment like the standard spider wraps. When detaching, the lanyards will retract back very quickly automatically. The auto-retractable spider wrap saves about 65% of the time applying and detaching compare to the standard spider wrap.

To conclude, here are some of the key features of TrustTag’s auto-retractable spider wrap:

  • Auto-Retractable

Save time greatly when applying and detaching

  • Replaceable Barrel

The barrel(spring-loaded power box) is an add-on part to our standard spider that can be easily loaded, unloaded or even replaced when aged.

  • Replaceable Battery

The battery is not just long-lasting, but it is also replaceable!

  • Dual Frequencies

Available to make AM, RF and even RFID in one same tag

  • Multiple alarms versions and different lock types available

The ‘S’ and ‘W’ of hot-melt adhesive coating and ultrasonic cutting on Eas Pocket Label Tag

, , ,

Eas pocket label tag is known as one of the security products to be used on garment clothing for retail stores anti-theft. The specialty of such kind of security label tag that different from normal hard tag is that it is more suitable for source tagging that to be tagging at source of manufacturing, and most importantly, cost-effective.

The security label tag is with Eas alarming soft label coated inside with fabric pocket, to be sewn on clothes. And how to make the alarming sensor soft label being coated with the fabric pocket? The normal and traditional production technics of the Eas pocket label tag is hot-melt adhesive coating on the fabric with the sensor alarming soft label.

Hot-melt adhesive glue is a kind of glue that does not have harm on the environment, and the glue is solid state in ordinary temperature, like massive, layer, strip or granular, which makes it convenient for easy package, storage, transport and usage. Moreover, when the glue is being hot-melt to coating on fabric, it can fastly stick and coat when the glue is cooling and curing. This makes the hot-melt adhesive glue quite fit for auto production line with high manufacturing efficiency. Because of these advantages of the hot-melt glue, therefore it’s widely and mostly used for Eas security pocket label tag’s manufacturing.

While at the same time, using hot-melt adhesive for security pocket label tag coating also has its own defects.

  1. Not great heat resistance and not strong enough adhesiveness; Have high requirement on hot-melting and coating equipment.
  2. Some of the hot-melt adhesive glue will easily turn to yellow when temperature is over 30℃, and it will be yellowing the fabric as well if in this case.
  3. The fabric can be wrinkle during hot-melt adhesive coating, thus the high requirement on coating equipment.
  4. The hot-melt adhesive coating fabric can be too stiff for sewing machine needle to pass through and has certain damage on sewing needle.
  5. Coating cost is a bit too high to manufacture with hot-melt adhesive glue.
  6. The fabric material will easily stick on the cutter because of the glue.

Due to the above listed defects of using hot-melt adhesive glue for security pocket tag coating, security pocket tag manufactures can receive oftenly claims from garment factories for not easy for sewing needle to pass through the pocket tag or from garment retailers that the yellowing on the fabric making their new clothes with stains and so on.

Based on the above facts and situation, security tag supplier has found out another better solution to solve the problems——Ultrasonic cutting technics.

Ultrasonic cutting is totally different from traditional cutting. Ultrasonic cutting is to use the power of ultrasonic transducer to heat and melt the cutting fabric material so fast as for cutting off. So ultrasonic cutting does not need sharp cutter edge or very strong pressure, and will not break or damage the cutting fabric edge. In this case the cutting sealing edge on the fabric will not have rough selvage, creases, silk running or laddering and so on.

Another big advantage of ultrasonic cutting is that, it fuses the fabric cutting part and automatically seals the cutting edge quite well when cutting on the fabric, avoiding fabric sealing edge turning loose. What’s more, the fabric material will not stick on the cutter even after ultrasonic fusing, which in some way to improve the cutting efficiency. And clothing factories do not need to worry about the damage on sewing machines needle when sew the label tag on.

The manufacturing efficiency is much higher with ultrasonic cutting technics comparing to the hot-melt adhesive coating so it’s now widely used by security tag manufactures. Ultrasonic cutting manufacturing can increase the production speed, expand production capacity and most importantly, highly reduce cost.

First simple look at Source Tagging

, , ,

Comparing to traditional tagging and recirculation of reusable hard tags, today we are more attracted by source tagging solution in Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS), which emerged like 20 years ago. Source tagging solution is the process of embedding security label into any packaging or into the merchant itself at the source of manufacturing to protect the item from shoplifting at retail places.

Source tagging now is widely used in apparel & fashion accessories, electronics, food & beverage, health & beauty for the most part, and some other categories. And it will continue to expand and increase focus in the near future for loss prevention.

Now you still have no idea about how source tagging works in loss prevention? No worry, let us explain more.

Source Tagging is the process of dispatching the EAS security tags or labels from tags manufacturer to the point of merchandise manufacturer, for example, garments, cosmetics, electronics, food, beverages and so on. The source tag will be embedded into the item itself during manufacturing at the sourcing place. Completed merchandise with source tag is shipped and dispatched at the stores and being placed on sales floor. Throughout all this process, retailers can reduce in-store labor costs incurred from applying security labels or hard tags inside the store and get complete reliability of the merchandise tagging.

To catch up with the development, TrustTag has devoted itself to source tagging solution for retail loss prenvetion to help retailers increase sales, solve shrink issues, and optimize store labor.

ET-E008 Battery Replaceable Alarming Tag

, ,

If you have been using any alarming tags, you may find it unsatisfactory to your usage. First of all, main problem of alarming tags in the market currently is that the battery dies quickly and you will have to abandon them afterwards as you can’t replace the battery.

The other problem that alarming tag users complain a lot is that the lanyards are not secured enough for high end products, not to mention about deterring shoplifters.

To solve these problems, we have done a lot of research and developed a new alarming tag to meet customers’ need. So here comes TrustTag’s ET-E008 Battery Replaceable Alarming Cable Lock, which is also more secured and deterrent with heavy duty coated steel lanyard.

This is a great improvement on the series of Alarming Tags , which always come with battery that doesn’t last long enough. Even most manufacturers claim that the battery life can last for 3 years, but wait until the end user are using it, the battery life would run out much quicker than they expected.

Moreover, TrustTag’s new alarming tag is more environment-friendly as they are battery replaceable and reusable with strong housing.

So how to replace the battery of TrustTag’s ET-E008? It is simple and convenient just using a small stick like screw driver. You can replace the battery in only 15 seconds! Check out the 15 seconds video on Youtube . You may think the thieves can then take out the battery and disalarm the alarming tag. The truth is, you can’t reach out to the battery unless the tag is detached! This is another advantage of our alarming tag that we have taken into account during designing.

The innovated combination of traditional EAS tag and RFID with laser printing

, ,

Traditional EAS tags are widely used in retail loss prevention/anti-theft for many years, with the unique function to act as protection guard for most of the hypermarket, supermarket, textile stores, outlet and so on. Due to the progress of the time and social requirements, RFID as a new technology is becoming more and more popular. RFID is well known in logistics, manamgement of inventory, retails, foods, parking and so on. Its application range is so big and it’s near us everywhere.

 And since RFID can be used in retails management, most of the stores are using EAS security tags and RFID tags together for anti-theft and product management. Under this situation, some of the stores put forward to an idea: how about combine these two tags together? Not only can simplify the non-commercial products, but also can save cost! Why not?!

 And then another question is that, what if we want to have barcode consistent with RFID data? Or what if we want to have permanently print a barcode on tags for scanning?

 So here comes the EAS and RFID combination tag with laser printing!

 TrustTag as a professional manufacturer in EAS field, now positively comform to the requirements of the time and needs of our customers by devoting into the production of EAS and RFID combination tags. Our RFID laser printing machine combines the function of reading, writing RFID data, laser printing, high speed auto-testing and auto-eliminating defective tags with very fast speed and good accuracy.

 The laser printing we can do, for example, to print barcode on the tag. The data of the barcode is consistent with the data in RFID inlays. Or if you want to print like company logo or any other images, it’s also ok too!

 Customers don’t need to worry about putting two seperate tags on commodities and pay extra cost for manual printing, With this solution, they can increase retail sales while reducing cost. With only one tag they can solve all the problems!
