HID - Exo Keg Tag

EXO Keg Tag transponders enhance the inventory tracking and lifecycle management of cylindrical returnable transport items (RTI), such as beverage kegs, chemical drums and gas cylinders. Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology from HID can help improve operational efficiency, while ensuring safe container transport and return. Anti-collision technology speeds processing, allowing readers to communicate with multiple tags in a single pass. At the same time, information stored in each RFID tag empowers more accurate, efficient asset management.

EXO Keg Tag transponders mount via welding on steel kegs. The RFID tags are built to withstand rigorous washing and sterilization processes, including the use of caustic soda. Durable, double injected, full plastic housings guard the enclosed electronics against exposure to liquids and harsh chemicals, as well as fluctuations in temperature.

RAIN (UHF) transponders enable real-time inventory, while slashing processing time. HID UHF EXO Keg Tag devices allow accurate accounting of entire pallets – even full truckloads – of containers in seconds. The unique design is optimized to facilitate reliable inventory tracking amidst a dense field of objects, even when items are filled with liquids. Each container can be counted and identified as a truck pulls away from a distribution center, and again when the truck arrives at its destination. This enables full visibility not only in the warehouse, but also during transportation and on customer sites.
