DELO and Mühlbauer Work to Lower Tag Costs

For end users and solution providers of radio frequency identification, the price per tag for passive EPC Gen 2 ultrahigh-frequency (UHF) RFID labels can be key to making a project affordable. Two companies releasing new products to enable the production of lower-cost tags are German adhesives firm DELO Industrial Adhesives (which provides the glue that affixes an antenna and a chip to an inlay during the application, bonding and curing processes) and Mühlbauer. DELO showcased its latest adhesives product at the RFID Journal LIVE! 2014 conference and exhibition, held last month in Orlando, Fla.
