TSC Auto ID’s global award-winning industrial printer now available with RFID functionality

Existing customers of TSC’s MB241 printers can easily add RFID functionality to their machines with an RFID upgrade kit, which will quickly extend their capabilities without significant investment. For those seeking new deployments, the MB241 will come with RFID functionality pre-installed.

"Winning Red Dot’s highly contested ‘Industrial equipment, machinery and automation’ category affirmed what we’ve long claimed about the MB241; that it sets new standards in form, function and sustainable industrial printing. Adding RFID functionality to the mix only heightens its appeal," says Bob Vines, TSC Auto ID’s country manager for the UK, Ireland and the Nordics.

The MB241 can process standard RFID labels, on-metal labels up to 1.65mm thick, and numerous speciality tags, making it eminently suitable for diverse needs across multiple sectors. TSC Auto ID’s free UniPRT SDK will also enable smooth and rapid integration into legacy systems, streamlining implementation.

Operational efficiency has also been improved with MB241's RFID functionality:

• Encode During Print capability simultaneously encodes while printing thereby boosting throughput
• Any faulty tags are automatically identified and reprinted thus preventing them entering circulation.
• Auto-calibration and an intuitive user interface make daily operations effortless and reduce both downtime and training needs.

"We actively collaborate with industry-leading bodies like GS1, AIM, ISO, and the RAIN Alliance to ensure our RFID solutions align with global standards and evolving industry needs. We also continue to validate RFID chips, inlays, and tags from major manufacturers at our printer and label validation lab. This ensures that not only will our MB241 Series handle the growing variety of labels on the market but so too will all our other RFID printers," says Bob.
