A Little QC Goes a Long Way

Improvements in quality control have also paid huge dividends at the converter level. Equipment suppliers continue to make advances in their own products to reduce waste involved with RFID tag placement by tightening placement tolerances.

That is much improved over a year ago.” Improved quality control creates less waste, which in turn, ends up saving converters money in the long run.
