RFID pucks

To maintain and improve process and machine efficiency, the Smart Puck(R) system has been co-developed to include molded pucks with pockets holding RFID tags, a customized version of the extrusion-based Simpli-Flex(R) conveyor beam and an RFID reader within the beam that reads the tags as containers are conveyed. Said to reduce the need for handling and sorting, the system is also cited for line optimization and maintenance diagnostics.
