UHF RFID Self-Checkout Kiosk Designed for Unmanned Convenience Stores, RFID Apparel Retail, and Shopping Mall Self-Checkout Points

If you’re already using RFID tags—or seriously planning to—then you’ve probably run into the same issues:

• Barcode checkout is slow and creates queues
• Apparel stores struggle with multi-item checkout
• Unmanned stores want lower labor costs but get stuck at payment
• Shopping malls want self-checkout points that actually integrate with existing systems

The CK-DP11C UHF RFID Self-Checkout Kiosk is built for operators who want RFID to work in real stores.

One Placement, Multiple Items Read Instantly

This Is Where RFID Checkout Actually Makes Sense

In self-checkout environments, speed and accuracy matter more than anything else.

With UHF RFID technology (840–960 MHz), the CK-DP11C supports:

• EPC C1G2 / ISO 18000-6C protocol
• Simultaneous multi-tag reading
• Reading speed of ≥40 tags per scan

In practice, the workflow is simple:

Place the items in the reading area
→ All RFID tags are detected at once
→ Product list appears immediately
→ Payment can proceed without rescanning

For RFID-enabled apparel stores, this removes the biggest bottleneck in checkout.

Controlled Reading Range (0–30 cm)

More Accurate in Open Retail Environments

Long read range is not always an advantage at checkout.

The CK-DP11C is designed for controlled, short-range reading, which is exactly what self-checkout points need:

• Reading distance: 0–30 cm
• Circularly polarized antenna (orientation-independent)
• Adjustable antenna power: 0–33 dBm

This prevents:

• Reading items on nearby shelves
• Accidental reads from passing customers
• Interference in open shopping mall layouts

For public self-checkout zones, this level of control is essential.

Built for Continuous Retail Operation

Not a Lab Prototype

The CK-DP11C is based on a stable industrial UHF RFID architecture, designed for real retail usage:

• Reliable multi-tag performance in dense tag environments
• Stable operation during long business hours
• Supports RS232 and WiFi connectivity
• Suitable for 24/7 unmanned or semi-unmanned stores

This is not a concept machine—it’s meant to stay online.

Not Just a Kiosk

Also Available as RFID Components for Custom Integration

For system integrators and solution providers, flexibility matters.

In addition to the complete self-checkout kiosk, Cykeo also supplies:

• UHF RFID readers
• RFID antennas

These components can be integrated into:

• Custom checkout counters
• Smart cabinets and kiosks
• Brand-specific self-service terminals
• Unmanned retail systems

You’re not locked into a single form factor.
