The DENSO Auto-ID Business Unit launched the scanner series UR20 in spring 2017. These innovative readers, UR21 and UR22, are both equipped with the most modern RFID technology (Radio Frequency Identification). These new features are especially beneficial in retail and logistic environments. Today, RFID technology has found its way into clothing stores as well, where the installed RFID devices make it possible to capture data from numerous tags with just one scan. The UR20 Series comprises UR21 and UR22.
The UR21 scanner is ideal for use at the Point of Sale. The scanner can be installed under the checkout counter with a VESA compatible antenna fixture that can be purchased separately. Due to its ultra-thin design it can be placed neatly in a small area and does not take up a lot of space. With the RFID technology, it is now possible to record numerous RFID tags with just one scan and as a result, not every single piece of clothing has to be scanned separately anymore. The customer’s clothing items can be put on the checkout counter and they are then scanned by the installed UR21 in just one single movement across the checkout counter. This results in huge time savings and eliminates long queues at the Point of Sale. The communication range of the UR21 is approximately 80 centimetres. Therefore, only items in its direct range are scanned. The items of the next customer or on adjacent checkout counters will not be read. The communication range of the ultra-thin scanner can be adjusted to eight different levels, in accordance to the positioning of the individual POS stations. There is also the option to install a second antenna, so a larger scanning area can be covered. Click here to get to the product page of the UR20 series.
