Detectable tags
December 1st 2008 Identification specialist,
Ritchey ID has launched a
new range of metal
detectable tags for use in
the food and pharmaceutical
industries.
The IDtect tag range is
the result of years of
development, aimed at
producing a versatile,
durable identification tag
that can be detected by
metal detectors used in
manufacturing, says Ritchey
ID's Ashley Musgrave.
Tags have been designed
so that any tagged item – or
even part of a chipped or
damaged tag – that
accidentally enters the line,
will set off the system
alarm. This fulfils a vital role
in health and safety
compliance.
The tags can also help to
improve asset management
efficiency. They can be
attached to a wide variety of
equipment, including chains,
conveyors and trolley jacks,
as well as smaller items.
Capable of operating in
both solid and liquid
environments, IDtect tags
can be supplied plain, or
custom-printed using laser
technology, to suit
individual business needs.
They can also carry batch
numbers.
Musgrave adds "The
IDtect tag has been
designed to withstand
prolonged use in a harsh
working environment, and
any laser printed
information will remain
legible for the tag's
lifetime." More articles from ritchey-id: |
