CUSTOM ENGINEERING and CAEN RFID are proud to announce the availability of a newthermal and UHF RFID printer for baggage tags and boarding cards for airports.

CUSTOM and CAEN RFID have joined their efforts tooptimize their resources and share their experience in the field of RFID printers and solutions, in order to address the demanding requests ofairport customers and to offer solutions and products at the forefrontof technology, optimizing the identification time for baggage.

The new CUSTOM printer, Mod. TK302, and its OEM version for integration, Mod. KPM302, integrates the CAEN RFID “Quark” module, using the UHF RFID technology, indicated by IATA as the natural evolution of barcode for baggage tags.

The printer consists of a compact and robust productthat can be easily integrated in the airport infrastructure at check-in desks. It is already compatible with the major software platforms for airports.

“The RFID identification of airport baggage is undoubtedly the future, in order to reduce the costs associated with errors with tracked baggage and baggage-passenger reconciliation” says Gabriele Ruggieri, Product Marketing Manager of CUSTOM, “The success achieved in the recent conferences by our new TK302 RFID, Check-in in Las Vegas and Check-In Asia in Kuala Lumpur,
together with the experience on the field in the 12 airports in China and the 5 ones in Italy that successfully use CUSTOM printers, will lead towards future oriented architectures based on RFID technology, where CAEN plays a leading role worldwide”.

“Our collaboration with CUSTOM”, says Giovanni Grieco,CAEN RFID’s Business Development Manager Embedded products “allowed us to design an innovative product which is undoubtedly very interesting for airport applications. Even though the use of RFID in airport applications is limited today to pilot projects, we are confident that in a near term future the major players and the international
organizations will use more and more the technology, already blessed and standardized by IATA”.

This new printer is available today in the CUSTOM products range.

Its active involvement in the EPC Global, AIM Europe and ETSI work groups have allowed it to provide RFID readers and tags which are in the vanguard of existing technology.
Amongst these the easy2read© readers/writers have been designed to permit the use of one single identification technology for reading either at close range or at a range of several meters; the semi-passive easy2log© tag can be used for the monitoring and recording of temperatures of perishable products in transit (such as food or chemical/pharmaceutical products in cold storage).
