CAEN UHF RFID readers deployed in Danish RFID Test Center

Viareggio, November, 24th 2005    

UHF RFID readers produced by the European reader manufacturer CAEN have been deployed in Denmark’s first test center for RFID technology, inaugurated on 21 June 2005, see Danish Technology Institute web page CAEN’s Danish integrator partner BETA technic designed and built the demonstration and compliance test systems together with CAEN.

The purpose of the test centre, which is located at Danish Technological Institute in Taastrup, is to test and try out how RFID technology will provide concrete improvements in efficiency of logistics. The centre will therefore provide its test environment and facilities, such as the BETA technic RFID system based on CAEN readers, in order to support Scandinavian companies in the application of RFID technology.

Radio frequency identification technology has revolutionized traditional barcode technology giving birth to an effective mean to automate logistics and simplify the supply chain processes. This technology is predicted to have a big impact on competitiveness of production and on efficiency in the labelling of goods and transport packaging.

The Danish Technological Institute RFID test centre has been instituted in collaboration with Michigan State University and a number of business partners, such as IBM, Microsoft Business Solutions etc contributing with equipment, software and hardware as well as with competencies and the fundamental experience from the worlds leading RFID pioneer installations like Wal*Mart,.Metro etc

Danish Technological Institute, Packaging and Transport (E&T) is the only Danish approved technological service institute within the packaging, logistics and transport area. E&T has accredited laboratories which are dedicated to performance testing of goods and packaging in transport and supply chains, and act as consultants in logistics and efficiency of the flows in coherent supply chains with the related documents and information flows. E&T offers access to documentation and accredited testing of the actual performance of goods/packaging in calibrated transport environments, now enhanced to full supply chain simulation including data capture and utilisation. The centre also offers services within scientific research and development as well as company specific research, consultancy and training in all packaging logistics areas.
