The result is considerable hardware and installation savings. The controller fulfills all requirements for an industry-ready version (IP67, metal housing) and is equipped with Profibus interface and with USB as the service interface to the PC. There are many typical application areas for the intelligent combination of RFID controllers and sensors. For identification tasks for material flow control in production systems, the user can profit from the low hardware usage and the low installation costs in areas like conveyor systems in mechanical engineering, assembly lines, electric suspension systems or in the entire intralogistics field.
