About Fixed RFID Readers
A fixed RFID reader is a stationary device designed to automatically detect and capture data from RFID tags as items move through a designated area. Unlike handheld readers that require manual operation, fixed RFID readers are mounted at strategic points — such as dock doors, conveyor lines, and entry gates — to enable hands-free, continuous tracking of assets, inventory, or shipments. With the right placement, a network of RFID readers fixed in place creates a fully automated identification system that boosts efficiency and visibility.
At atlasRFIDstore, you’ll find fixed RFID readers built for industrial and commercial environments alike:
- Standard Fixed RFID Readers: High-performance readers with multiple antenna ports to cover large read zones, ideal for warehouses, distribution centers, and logistics hubs.
- Integrated Fixed RFID Readers: Readers with built-in antennas and processing, perfect for tight spaces or where a simple plug-and-play solution is needed.
- Portal & Gate RFID Readers: Robust setups mounted on entryways to track pallets, forklifts, or personnel as they pass through.
- Rugged Fixed RFID Readers: Readers with enhanced environmental sealing or advanced filtering to ensure reliable reads in challenging settings.
Each fixed RFID reader can be fine-tuned with antennas, cables, and software to suit your specific read range and data requirements.
How to Use a Long Distance RFID Reader in Your Operation
Long distance RFID readers excel at automating asset tracking and inventory management across expansive areas. These readers scan RFID tags from a greater range, ensuring seamless tracking as items move through large read zones without requiring manual intervention or handheld devices. Often integrated with warehouse or inventory management systems, long distance RFID readers provide real-time updates for stock levels, shipment verification, and streamlined workflow automation.
Frequently Asked Questions: Fixed RFID Readers
Considering using fixed-mount RFID readers in your facility? Here are answers to popular questions to help you choose the right fixed RFID reader setup for your project.
How does a fixed RFID reader work?
A fixed RFID reader uses antennas to create a read zone. When an RFID tag enters this zone, the reader’s radio waves power the tag and capture its unique data, which is then sent to your database or software platform for tracking and analysis.
What’s the difference between a fixed RFID reader and a handheld RFID reader?
A fixed RFID reader stays mounted in one location and scans items that pass through its detection area automatically. A handheld RFID reader, on the other hand, is portable and operated by staff moving around to locate and read tags manually.
How much do fixed RFID readers cost?
The cost of a fixed RFID reader varies depending on frequency, read range, antenna ports, and connectivity options. Low to mid-range readers, like LF/HF models, typically start around 300 while UHF RFID readers generally start at 500. Long-range UHF RFID readers can cost $1,000 or more, with prices increasing based on additional features like antenna ports, ruggedness, and connectivity. Total system costs may vary further depending on the number of antennas, mounting hardware, and software integration required.
