Frequently Asked Question
The top questions about RFID Reader.
A low-frequency RFID reader operates at 125 KHz or 134 KHz, offering short read ranges (~10 cm) and is ideal for use near metal, liquids, or in high-interference environments.
Common applications include animal tracking (livestock ear tags), access control (EM cards), industrial tracking, healthcare, and vehicle identification.
This device supports passive LF RFID tags such as TK4100, EM4200, EM4305, and T5577.
Yes. It supports USB (HID), RS232, and Wiegand, so you can easily integrate with existing PC software or access control systems.
LF (Low Frequency) offers shorter range but performs better near liquids or metal, making it more suitable for some industrial and animal identification use cases.
Hot To Customize RFID Tags
Know the customization process about RFID tags
Size & Shape
Send your requirements on size and shapes. Tags are typically designed in simple shapes and sizes to match the internal antenna. However, they can also be customized in various sizes and shapes to best fit the intended application and the asset being tagged. For instance, RFID hang tags can be customized in size, shape, and attachment method to perfectly suit specific applications.
Layout & Chips
In the label format designer, select the layout that matches the type and size of the RFID label you wish to create. Our factory provides a variety of label templates, including RFID-specific options. We also offer a range of RFID chips tailored to meet your specific requirements.
High Customization
Custom tags are designed from the ground up to meet the needs of specific applications, with unique variables for nearly every option listed below. A semi-custom tag typically starts as a standard tag but offers additional customization options, such as custom printing, encoding, or specific backings and attachment methods.
