RFID Solutions for the Automotive Industry

ALT Technologies supports Tier 1 automotive suppliers in the RFID integration of parts and components according to unique specifications before they are delivered to the OEMs. Every solution is developed in close cooperation with the customer and is fully customized according to specific requirements.
Jelmer Sminia, Product Development Manager Europe at ALT Technologies comments: “RFID development and integration may sound easy, seeing as it is being implemented and used on grocery items and clothes at a massive scale. However, in the automotive industry, where specifications are crucial in the production of vehicles, and due to the metallic environment, RFID integration can be quite a challenge. It is necessary to select the right adhesive, process, materials and the RFID tags and labels for each component. The positioning of the RFID label on the component is also crucial to allow the best possible reading results. The biggest challenge is integrating RFID onto metal containers, for example.”
