Advanced RFID Capabilities

The ZQ520 RFID printer is the only barcode printer to combine the convenience and flexibility of a mobile printer with the enhanced tracking capabilities of UHF RFID. The ZQ520 RFID printer extends the capabilities of Zebra’s ultra-rugged ZQ520 mobile printer by adding UHF RFID printing and encoding to create on-demand RFID labels when and where you need them.

Easy to Use

Providing the same industry leading RFID technology offered in other Zebra RFID printers and encoders, the ZQ520 RFID printer can encode the most advanced inlays. The simple to use intuitive design combined with Zebra’s propriety adaptive encoding technology provides automatic RFID calibration and eliminates complex RFID setup.

An RTLS & RFID Solution for Healthcare

Speaker: Wayne Miller, Director, EMEA Healthcare Practice, Zebra Technologies Title: Hull University Teaching Hospital Advances Patient Care with RTLS and RFID Solutions Content: Hull University Teaching Hospital drives patient care forward with RTLS and RFID solutions. The hospital is now using an RTLS solution with RFID to optimize the location of medical devices as well as patient care. Zebra mobile computers are used to manage, track and locate medical equipment in real time. Processes in intensive care units have been improved by RFID, and patient and staff satisfaction have increased significantly. Wayne Miller presents this use case, which is the largest deployment of RFID for RTLS in healthcare in Europe.

ADVANCING PATIENT CARE with Real-Time Location Solutions

RTLS & RFID In Healthcare Hull University Teaching Hospital NHS Trust, also known as known as "The Trust", has carried out what is believed to be the largest deployment of RFID for RTLS in healthcare in Europe. Over 72,000 items have already been tagged with industrial RFID tags. Every week, 2,700 sterile trays are tagged. Over 640 fixed RFID readers and more than 400 antennas have been installed at the two main sites, Hull Royal Infirmary and Castle Hill Hospital in Yorkshire, England. 320 mobile computers enable tracking of hospital items and patient property. The Trust worked with Zebra Technologies, Tagnos and The Barcode Warehouse to develop the solution. Success Story powered by: the Think WIOT Group, "The Trust" and Zebra Technologies.

ROBOTICS for Efficient and Automated GOODS STORAGE

Autonomous Mobile Robots With the global annual increase in online trade of up to 50 percent, new warehouses will be needed. 55 percent of logistics decision-makers plan to build additional warehouse space in 2023. At the same time, there is a growing shortage of skilled workers. Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR) are one solution to these challenges. Daniel Dombach, Director T&L Industries EMEA at Zebra Technologies, talks about digital warehouses and AMRs in this interview.

Why Flexibility is a Sign of Warehouse Logistics Maturity

Lecturer: Daniel Dombach, Director EMEA Industry Solutions at Zebra Technologies Title: (Production Logistics) Why Flexibility is a Sign of Warehouse Logistics Maturity Content: The current economic situation creates new challenges for the manufacturing industry and for logistics. Due to supply bottlenecks, materials are often not available or have long delivery times. A complete inventory overview and the prevention of shrinkage are required. Human errors are to be eliminated. Daniel Dombach explains the changes companies are driving to overcome these challenges. Thanks to Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) and sensing solutions, the allocation of orders within a warehouse is carried out smoothly. Each delivery is correctly identified, picked and tracked in real time. Source: Think Wireless IoT Day 06-2022: Industrial IoT & WIOT Technologies Date: November 16th 2022
