Static Control on RFID Tags
RFID tags contain an antennae to enable them to receive and respond to radio-frequency queries from an RFID transceiver. The microchip contained in an RFID tag can be damaged by static electricity.
Static charges are commonly found in tag and label printing/production operations anywhere along the path from the feed-roll to the rewind. The charges are generated by the contact and separations of the web material from the unwind roll, and as the material travels over the various rollers and process stations as it runs through the press or converting equipment.
Unfortunately the tiny circuits of the RFID tags may not be robust enough to withstand exposure to static charges.
To protect RFID tags, SIMCO manufacturs several products to control static charges.
The Blue Bar provides relatively balanced ionization. The ionizing balance (equality of positive and negative ions) of the active eliminator is important because the offset voltage differential (usually negative) of some ionizers could cause damage. Balanced ionization will reduce the static charges quickly to levels that are no longer dangerous to the RFID tags, with negligible residual voltage. CLICK HERE for more information on the Blue Bar
The PerforMAX 3 is the most advanced static control system available for monitoring static neutralizing performance. PerforMAX3 provides outstanding extended range performance to eliminate static charges even when installed 2" to 10" from tags and labels. The PerforMAX3 system is available in several configurations. The standard system provides remote ionization monitoring and control, clean bar and system fault indicators, and remote on/off control. The computer interface configuration has remote computer monitoring and data acquisition. CLICK HERE for more information on the PerforMAX3
The fusION delivers powerful and balanced static control in a
compact package that can be installed in places where typical ionizer designs do not fit. Simple to install, operate and maintain. No adjustments or calibration are necessary with Simco’s patented auto balancing (DOCC) technology. The biggest benefit for RFID applications is the this unit has a guaranteed ion balance of + or - 50m volts, and is specifically designed for use in electronics applications.

SIMCO’s Aerostat PC is an excellent choice for static elimination in RFID application when a static bar can not be used. The Aerostat PC is distinguished by its variable speed control, balanced ionization and patented emitter point cleaner, While helping to protect products and personnel from the effects of static discharge, the Aerostat PC is lightweight, small, and quiet - making it easy for the user to direct the ionization where it is needed. Best of all, this unit has a guaranteed ion balance of + or - 50m volt! CLICK HERE for more information on the Aerostat PC
