Traditional RFID tags fail on metal due to signal interference and detuning. The CK-BQ6025 anti-metal RFID tag integrates a ​​PET/foam substrate​​ and ​​etched aluminum antenna​​ to counteract these issues:

• ​​Metal Isolation Layer​​: The foam padding (1.0mm thickness) creates a controlled gap (0-5mm adjustable) between the tag and metal surface, minimizing electromagnetic interference.
• ​​Frequency Optimization​​: Tuned for 902-928MHz (UHF Gen2), it adapts to metal environments using adaptive frequency hopping, maintaining ISO 18000-6C compliance even near steel machinery or pallets.
• ​​Real-World Performance​​: Lab-tested with ​​Voyantic Tagformance Pro​​, it achieves ​​8m+ read range​​ on metal surfaces at 2W ERP—3x longer than generic tags.

​​Ideal Use Cases​​:

• Automotive part tracking on assembly lines
• Metal tool crib management in factories
• Outdoor asset monitoring (e.g., solar panel frames, shipping containers)

The CK-BQ6025 is built for industrial extremes, combining ​​IP68 protection​​ and material engineering:

• ​​Environmental Resistance​​:
  • Operates at ​​-40°C to +85°C​​ (freezer-to-furnace transitions)
  • Withstands UV exposure, oil, and chemical splashes (tested per IEC 60068-2-78)
• ​​Adhesive & Encapsulation​​:
  • 3M™ industrial adhesive ensures bonding to rough/painted metal surfaces.
  • Dual-layer encapsulation (PET + foam) prevents moisture ingress, critical for cold chain logistics or marine environments.
• ​​Data Integrity​​: IMPINJ Monza R6-P chip guarantees ​​10-year data retention​​ and ​​100,000+ write cycles​​—ideal for reusable asset tracking.

​​Installation Best Practices​​:

1. Clean metal surfaces with isopropyl alcohol to remove grease/dust.
2. For curved surfaces (e.g., pipelines), use a heat gun to mold the tag’s flexible substrate.
3. Apply 15 PSI pressure for 30 seconds to activate adhesive.

Yes. The CK-BQ6025 seamlessly integrates with most UHF RFID infrastructure:

• ​​Compatibility Features​​:
  • Supports ​​EPC Gen2v2​​ and ​​TID​​ protocols for compatibility with Zebra, Impinj, and Honeywell readers.
  • Pre-encoded ​​96-bit EPC memory​​ aligns with GS1 standards for global supply chains.
• ​​Deployment Scenarios​​:
  • ​​High-Density Metal Inventory​​: Pair with handheld readers (e.g., Cykeo CK-B2G) for 500+ tags/sec group scanning in metal-rich warehouses.
  • ​​Mixed Material Environments​​: The tag’s anti-interference design works even when attached to metal/non-metal hybrid assets (e.g., wooden pallets with steel brackets).
• ​​Customization​​: Optional ​​pre-printed barcodes​​ or ​​QR codes​​ for hybrid scanning workflows.
