Parelec to Sponsor Manufacturing RFID Masterclass

The masterclass is aimed at converters, packagers, labelers, printers, label suppliers, specifiers, buyers, and brand owners. It will explain the full value chain of manufacturing RFID smart labels from design to finished product. Topics include evaluation of manufacturing methods, chip attachment processes, antenna technologies, overprinting and insertion, specifying RFID labels, managing data, and best practice. Delegates will be able to handle many different samples. The session will address: understanding the tag production value chain and entry points; evaluation of the choices for manufacturing complete RFID labels, tickets, and cards; how things are made and what they cost; manufacturing RFID tag antennas—technologies, performance, and cost; substrates, inks, and adhesives—suppliers, costs, and performance; chip attach options; analysis of routes to high-volume manufacture; oversupply and undersupply; applying RFID to products—required throughput, testing, and finish; major players, emerging players, and unsatisfied needs, i.e. opportunities; and current industry manufacturing capacity and future needs.
