RAIN RFID ANTENNAS
Als führender Hersteller von RFID-Identifikationssystemen verfügt Kathrein Solutions über eine breite Palette von RAIN RFID-Antennen, die sich in die PRO Line und die EDGE Line Familien unterteilen. Um flexibel auf die verschiedensten Einsatzfälle bei der drahtlosen Identifizierung zu reagieren, enthalten beide Antennenfamilien Geräte mit unterschiedlicher Lesebreite und -reichweite.
PRO Line antennas
The PRO Line antennas are particularly robust antennas and therefore suitable for the highest mechanical loads and harsh environments.
LowRange- (LORA), MidRange- (MRA) und WideRange (WRA)-Antennen ermöglichen eine Vielzahl unterschiedlicher Anwendungen. Zusätzlich bietet Kathrein mit dem ©KRAI (Kathrein RFID Antenna Interface)-System Antennen an, die sich automatisch auf die jeweiligen Anforderungen einstellen. Dabei können z.B. die Polarisation (Ausrichtung der Transponder zur Antenne) mit der WiRa 70° PRO ©KRAI angepasst oder die SMSH 60° EDGE ©KRAI Antenne kaskadiert werden, um neben den Lesedaten auch den Leseort zu erfassen. Gestützt auf diese Vielfalt kann die optimale Antenne für jede Art von Anwendung ausgewählt werden.

EDGE Line antennas
Die neueste Antennenfamilie von Kathrein Solutions revolutioniert den Einsatz von UHF-RFID-Antennen für IoT-Anwendungen. Die EDGE Line Antennen überzeugen durch ihre hervorragenden Parameter und reduzierten Abmessungen. Auffällig ist die geringe Dicke der Antennen durch den vollständigen Verzicht auf ein Gehäuse. Dennoch ist der Schutz vor Feuchtigkeit und Umwelteinflüssen gegeben. Kathrein ist sich auch seiner Verantwortung für die Umwelt bewusst und hat sich bei diesen EDGE-Antennen für ein recyclingfähiges Design entschieden.

FAQ: FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What are RAIN RFID antennas?
RFID UHF antennas are specialized devices used in conjunction with RFID readers to receive and transmit signals from UHF (Ultra-High Frequency) RFID tags. UHF antennas are known to provide greater range and faster data transmission than antennas of other frequency ranges, making them ideal for many industrial and commercial applications.
How do I choose the right antenna for my application?
Choosing the right antenna depends on several factors:
Detection range: Determine the required range for your application and then select the antenna from the areas Near Field, Low, Mid and Wide Range. Always bear in mind that the range is limited by the transmission level setting on the reader. can be further reduced.
Environmental conditions: Take into account environmental factors such as metal objects that could interfere with the RFID signal. Ideal is a undisturbed propagation, so that there is no metal or liquid between the antenna and the transponder.
Installation location: Consider whether the antenna will be used in an outdoor or indoor application, which may influence the selection. Always consider the appropriate accessories, such as connection cables.
We are happy to support you here together with our partners so that you can choose the right antenna for your application.
What support does Kathrein Solutions offer for the installation and maintenance of antennas?
Kathrein Solutions offers comprehensive support, including:
- Technical training: Training for the installation and maintenance of antennas.
- Support teams: access to experts via a ticket system for ongoing support.
- Documentation and manuals: Extensive resources available online to help users get the most out of their products.
What makes Kathrein Solutions antennas special?
Kathrein Solutions antennas are known for their high quality and performance. They offer:
High reliability: Robust design for use in difficult environmental conditions.
Adaptability: Flexible configuration options to ensure optimum performance in different applications.
Innovative technology: Use of advanced technologies for improved signal processing and control.
How do RFID UHF antennas work?
RFID UHF antennas work by transmitting and receiving radio waves in the UHF frequency range (typically between 860 and 960 MHz). These antennas generate an electromagnetic field that activates passive RFID tags so that they can send their stored information back to the reader.
