The Ultimate Rugged On Metal RFID Tags Designed for Asset Tracking in Complex Processes: High Temperatures, Shocks, Acids, Chemicals, Pressure, Waterproof, Encoding
The MICRO series from Xerafy offers the ultimate on metal high temperature RFID tags, providing consistent performance where reliability and durability are critical.
The rugged RFID tags help enhance asset availability in even the most challenging industrial processes and data collection for systems in automotive and manufacturing.
“We love Xerafy’s range of special metal tags, which never let us down in any of our projects, especially for demanding production environments.”
The MICRO series offers durable and reusable tagging alternatives to barcode labels, making them suitable for a wide range of critical metal assets such as skids, beams, trays and equipment.
Engineered to provide a reusable on-metal tagging solution that
operates reliably in the harshest environments
For extreme conditions with Hi-Temp, Chemicals, Pressure and Waterproof
Up to 500 hours high temp cycling
Leading on-metal read range
Reinforced mounting system for M3 rivets, Zip Ties, Industry-grade adhesives
Permanent identification in the harshest environments
Unique ID / item-level identification and data encoding
As Xerafy’s leading rugged RFID tags, the MICRO series comes with 6 references that have been proven in the field around the world, and work in combination with the PICO small tags and XS smallest RFID tags.
The tags’ RFID chip is protected from high temperatures, shocks, abrasions, pressure, water, and corrosives like acids, by using patented combinations of packaging and engineered casing materials.
Metal inserts enhance the durability of the tags, especially when utilized with robust mounting systems such as rivets and screws.
First Choice For Manufacturing
The Xerafy MICRO Industrial passive RFID tag provides the dependability and durability required in manufacturing and production.
The high temperature UHF RAIN RFID tag is field-proven for harsh environments, where its durability matches the asset's life, thanks to its rugged case and 10 meter on-metal performance.
Best For The Paint Shop
The Xerafy MICRO Paint Shop offers an on metal RFID tagging solution for cycling through high temperatures, fluids, and chemicals.
The silicone-free design eliminates the risk of contamination in the shop, and the rugged RFID tag's IP68 rating and high-temperature survival up to 250°C ensure its durability.
Best For Complex Processes
The Xerafy MICRO Autoclave is a rugged RFID tag purpose-built to withstand the rigors of sterile processing in healthcare.
With its IP69K rating and high-performance engineered polymer case, the on metal RFID tag withstands repeated chemical cleaning and autoclave cycles at high temperatures.
Best For Medical Devices
The MICRO Medical is an autoclavable tag designed for tracking medical devices and surgical trays.
Its IP69K rating and medical-grade material tag case allow it to withstand high-pressure washing, steam, and sterilization cycles, while the stainless-steel inserts are for secure mounting.
Full Performance In Half The Size
The Xerafy MICRO Power delivers full on metal and high temperature RFID performance in a smaller form factor small enough to fit power tools and equipment.
The smaller rugged RFID tag is made of a high-performance engineered polymer for IP68 rating and extra durability against high temperatures and caustic chemicals.
The First Choice for High-Temp
The Xerafy MICRO Heat leads all other high-temperature RFID tags with its survivability at up to 215°C.
The rugged RFID tag comes in a compact form factor that delivers a read range of 7 meters on metal. Its selected materials deliver full performance with industry-grade mounting solutions and IP68 rating.
All the RFID tags in the MICRO series can be fully
personalized to support the deployment of an asset tracking RFID system
Silk-screen printing options include logo, serial numbers
Durable engraving with case color optimized for optical readability
User memory versions for
ID encoding and programming
Design options: Metal backplate, Sensor, Adhesives...
High Temperature RFID Tags provide advanced on-metal identification and tracking capabilities to asset-tracking systems designed for demanding operations
The MICRO series RFID tags are used in manufacturing paint shops, automotive work-in-process, production lines, as well as aerospace, oil and gas, and healthcare.
Their technical features make them the ideal durable tagging solution to track assets in challenging industries.
Yes, they are specifically designed to perform on metal surfaces.
Ordinary RFID tags cannot be used for metal assets: The metal interferes with RFID signals, causing problems with readability and accuracy. The Xerafy MICRO series, on the other hand, are industrial RFID tags that use antennas designed to work on metal surfaces without interference, as well as techniques such as orientation optimization.
The MICRO series RFID tags can survive maximum temperatures of up to 250°C. The tags have also been tested in various high-temperature cycles that are typical of industrial processes such as paint shops.
The Xerafy engineering team can advise on the best tag selection for specific cycles and assist with testing.
Yes, their materials offer protection to varying types and concentrations of acid or alkali typical of industrial environments. Some acid or alkali may corrode or damage the tag over time, while others may have little to no effect.
The Xerafy engineering team can advise on the tagging solutions best suited to the environmental conditions in which the tags will be used and assist with testing.
Yes, each of the MICRO series tags is waterproof and comes with its own IP rating. The tags are designed to be resistant to water and moisture, making them suitable for use in outdoor or wet environments.
An IP rating, for Ingress Protection, sees the first number referring to protection against solids, and the second number referring to protection against water. The most common IP ratings for industrial RFID tags are:
The MICRO series are benchmark-topping rugged and reusable RFID tags. They have been validated in the field by industry leaders for challenging environments, including high temperatures, exposure to chemicals, pressure, and waterproof conditions.
The Xerafy engineering team is available to support the selection and qualification of a tagging solution best suited to the environmental conditions in which the tags will be used.
MICRO series tags work with standard RFID readers from Zebra, Honeywell, TSL, etc that comply with EPCglobal Gen2v2 and ISO 18000-63 standards, also referred to as RAIN RFID.
Advice is available on a selection of fixed and handheld RFID readers with frequencies and antenna polarization matching the tags’ for optimal performance.
The MICRO series can be mounted on metal assets using pop rivets, screws, cable ties, as well as industrial adhesives and glues.
The Xerafy engineering team can advise on the mounting solutions best suited to the assets and environmental conditions in which the tags will be used.
