SMAG – RFID Equipment

RFID converting line

The ICONNECT from the ICON Platform, is also part of the L.I.T (Label Identification Technology) program developed by SMAG Graphique with the aim of being the pioneer and most advanced partner in the world of the intelligent label industry label industry.

ICONNECT is a multi-process platform designed to meet the needs of both OEMs and label printers, offering them new market opportunities by providing solutions for on-line inventory management, traceability and product identification.
The ICONNECT-C RFID insertion converting line enables to:

  • Insert a UHF / HF NFC / anti-theft RFID chip between an adhesive label and its carrier backing.
  • Place a label on top of another label for promotional coupons or creative effects.
  • Place a label of a different shape or material next to another label (wine market).

RFID encoding and control line (UHF AND HF)

The ICONNECT from the ICON Platform, is also part of the L.I.T (Label Identification Technology) program developed by SMAG Graphique with the aim of being the pioneer and most advanced partner in the world of the intelligent label industry.

ICONNECT is a multi-process platform designed to meet the needs of both OEMs and label printers, offering them new market opportunities by providing solutions for on-line inventory management, traceability and product identification.
Depending on the options selected, the ICONNECT-E RFID encoding and control line enables to:

  • Check print quality with a 100% 4K inspection camera.
  • Check the position of the inlay under the label with a 100% 4K inspection camera.
  • Check RFID inlay quality (UHF and HF).
  • Print a data matrix code or any other variable data from a database.
  • Encode the RFID inlay (UHF and HF) from a database.
  • Encode the RFID inlay from variable data printed and read on-line.
  • Control the final encoding process, mark defective tags, destroy defective inlays, stop defective tags on a splicing table.
