Why custom rfid metal tags for metal surface?
It is well known that RFID tags transmit information through radio frequency signals. However, UHF signals are easily reflected by metal and absorbed by water. And when you use regular RFID tags to manage IT assets, they may not work due to metal interference. Why?
RFID reader antennas have the ability to absorb RF energy. But metal causes eddy currents around the RFID reader, which reduces the efficiency of the RFID electromagnetic field. These eddy currents also generate their own magnetic fields perpendicular to the metal surface. And these perpendicular magnetic fields can make the reader area failure.
In addition, metal can also cause additional parasitic capacitance. This can cause the RFID reader and tag antenna to detune and disrupt system performance. Ultimately, in some bands, the reflected electrons from the metal can interfere with the RFID tag and RFID reader.
As a result, when RFID tags are used in applications with more metallic materials, RF performance can be significantly reduced. While this is a significant challenge for RFID applications, some good solutions exist, such as metal-resistant tags.
RFID tags on metal surfaces can be used in a variety of industries. For example, in industrial production, RFID tags on metal surfaces can be used to manage material flow and production processes; in transportation, RFID tags on metal surfaces can be used to manage the tracking and monitoring of vehicles and cargo; in logistics and distribution, RFID tags on metal surfaces can be used to enable warehouse management and express parcel tracking and tracing.
Installation, RFID tags on metal surfaces are used in two ways: one is the rfid tag with holes, fixed on top of the metal with screws, the other is with backing, can be directly glued on top of the metal, our backing Adhesive is very strong, once attached it is very difficult to take down.
RFID tag installation Please make sure the metal surface is clean to avoid dust, oil and other debris to interfere with the signal transmission of RFID tags.
Do not expose RFID tags on metal surfaces to harsh environments such as strong magnetic fields, high temperatures, and excessive humidity.

How to choose metal mount RFID tags?
How to choose the right RFID anti-tag for your application? This is a question that often makes people confused. In choosing a rfid tags for metal surfaces application, we must consider many factors, such as the price, physical size, material and shape of the RFID tag.
However, more attention should be paid to the factors that affect the performance of the RFID tag. For example, what is the read/write distance of the RFID tag? What is the material of the RFID tag and mounting surface? How to install? What is the application environment?
If you think RFID metal-resistant tags are only needed when used on metal surfaces, then you must change your mind. Just because the tag is not directly attached to metal does not mean that it will not be interfered with by metal. RFID tags are also susceptible to interference if there is a lot of metal around the place where the RFID tag is installed.
Therefore, to choose anti metal RFID tag, you must judge carefully to ensure stable and reliable RFID tag performance. If you still do not know how to choose RFID tags, please feel free to contact us.
