Compact RFID read/write head

Mount the RFID head in restricted conditions

RFID systems in industry are most often used in internal transport systems, e.g., hanging conveyors, pallet transport, etc. However, they can also be used for tool identification. For the latter purposes, Turck, a leading manufacturer of industrial RFID systems, has introduced a new read/write head. The TB-Q08 is currently the smallest ISO15693 compliant radio frequency identification (RFID) read/write head on the market with protection to IP67.

Thanks to its compact rectangular design and the 15 cm long connection cable, the TB-Q08 is particularly suitable for use in restricted mounting conditions, such as in small assembly and transport lines. The identification of molds, such as injection molding tools, is an ideal use for the new read/write head.

Turck RFID read/write head TB-Q08 HF

In spite of its compact dimensions of 32 mm x 20 mm x 8 mm, both the antenna and the electronics are integrated in a housing. Two LEDs visible from all directions indicate a functioning power supply as well as active read/write operations to the user.

Combined with the R10 and R12 tags in particular, the TB-Q08 can fully play to its strengths in the identification of metal objects. These tags can be mounted directly in metal and are equipped with a chip which supports password functions. In combination with Turck’s BL ident RFID system, you can implement simple brand protection (prevent unauthorized copying), access protection, access rights management (only to authorised persons) etc.
