Ride the Flow with RFID detection
This is why we are FlowRiders — we keep our customers operations in constant, effective motion.
Imagine a world where managing high volumes of palletized goods and dynamically detecting items at loading docks is as easy as pie. Well, with our new SIMATIC RF690R and RF695R readers, that world is here. These readers are engineered to tackle the toughest intralogistics challenges with ease and grace, ensuring your operations run smoother than ever.
Ready for the Future
The smart logistic-gate is key to advancing intralogistics. These RFID System provide precise detection and are designed for easy installation and seamless connectivity.
Applications
The SIMATIC RF690R and RF695R readers are perfect for those who:
- Want to capture palletized goods quickly and reliably.
- Want to dynamically detect goods at the loading gate.
- Want to transfer captured tag data into middleware or an overarching software.
- Need a high read rate of large tag populations at distributed reading points.

Size matters
- SIMATIC RF690R: Equipped with four external antenna ports, this reader is perfect for setups requiring up to four antennas or logical reading points at loading docks or storage racks.
- SIMATIC RF695R: With eight external antenna ports, it offers a cost-effective solution for applications needing up to eight antennas. It is particularly robust for tracking large moving tag populations, such as those found in gate transitions.
