Times-7 introduces Packing Station Antenna for dense item-level RFID reading
Times-7 has introduced the Packing Station Antenna, a RAIN RFID antenna designed specifically for item-level reading at manual and semi-automated packing and verification stations. For RFID projects where accurate read control is required at close range, this antenna addresses a common challenge: capturing the correct items at the point of pack without interference from surrounding tagged goods.
Key Benefits of the Packing Station Antenna:
- Reads thousands of densely packed RFID tags within seconds
- Near-100% read accuracy for mixed and randomly oriented items
- Consistent near-zone RF performance across the full antenna surface
- Multi-port, multi-linear design providing spatial and polarisation diversity
- Eliminates the need for shaking, rotating or repositioning packages
- Compact and lightweight design, weighing just 2 kg
- Flexible mounting options for tabletops, tunnels and conveyor systems
- Replaces complex multi-antenna tunnel setups with a single antenna
Designed for controlled read environments, the Packing Station Antenna is intended for locations where individual items must be confirmed before shipment, kitting or consolidation. Its form factor and radiation pattern are suited to fixed installations where predictable read behaviour is more important than maximum read range.
Typical applications:
- Packing verification
- Order accuracy checks
- Item-to-carton association
- Returns processing
- Quality control processes in logistics, manufacturing and distribution operations.
For projects requiring precise item-level reading, the Packing Station Antenna delivers reliable performance and easy integration into your existing workstations. Contact us to discuss availability and specifications or place your order directly through us: Times-7 Packing Station Antenna
