After living through the hype cycle of Walmart’s RFID for supply chain “mandate”, I shutter at the words “slap-n-ship”. Ok, there are applications when slapping an RFID label on a carton is all that is needed. However, the real ROI for RFID is in the tracking of high value objects that require a tag that can’t easily be removed. An embedded RFID tag provides the most secure and effective means of real-time tracking.
XERAFY has collaborated with Holland1916 to provide custom embedded tag solutions for industries such as oil and gas, construction, facility management, and manufacturing. Utilizing XERAFY’s PicoX embed-in-metal tag, Holland1916 is casting bolts containing UHF Gen2 RFID that is used for inventory management and to monitor equipment’s performance maintenance schedule.
Holland1916’s ability to custom manufacture metal plates, labels, metal consoles and die cast parts combined with XERAFY’s embed-in-metal tags provides unique solutions to enable RFID to deliver the value it has promised.

This RFID Tag was burned in the field during actual use. Even after sustaining fire damage, the tag was readable. Now, that is a durable design.
