Rapid RFID Inventory

Reduce cycle counting time with high-speed multi-tag capture

Use the RLRH-20 handheld RFID reader to capture more than 500 eligible tags per second under suitable conditions—without aiming at every individual label.

Workers can move through the defined read zone, collect tag records continuously, and focus follow-up on missing, unexpected, or unread items. This reduces repeated scanning steps and supports faster RFID inventory management across warehouses, receiving areas, and asset locations.

01Reduce cycle counting time

Read multiple eligible tags during each sweep instead of checking inventory one item at a time.

02Improve worker productivity

Continue moving through racks and receiving areas while the reader collects RFID tag data.

03Act on exceptions faster

Review captured records on-device and focus follow-up on missing or unexpected items.

FAQ

RLRH-20 integration and RFID performance FAQ

Can RLRH-20 help reduce cycle counting time?

Yes, when inventory items use compatible EPC Gen 2 / ISO 18000-6C tags and the read zone is correctly configured. RLRH-20 can process more than 500 eligible tags per second under suitable conditions, allowing workers to collect multiple inventory records in one sweep instead of scanning items individually.

What affects the maximum RFID read distance?

Read distance depends on the RFID tag, tagged material, tag orientation, reader power, antenna direction, nearby metal or liquid, interference, software settings, and operating environment. The stated distance of up to 20 m must be validated with the actual project tags and site conditions.

How can I increase RFID read reliability?

Test the reader with the final tags and tagged objects, define the intended read zone, adjust RF power, confirm the regional frequency setting, and evaluate tag orientation and surrounding materials. Metal, liquid, dense tag populations, and nearby readers can change RFID performance.

Can RLRH-20 read RFID tags and barcodes in the same workflow?

Yes. RLRH-20 combines UHF RFID reading, common 1D/2D barcode scanning, and camera-based data capture. The final workflow and data fields depend on the application software and SDK implementation.

Which UHF RFID tags does RLRH-20 support?

RLRH-20 supports tags compliant with EPC Class 1 Gen 2 / ISO 18000-6C within the configured regional frequency band. Tag selection should also consider the tagged material, required read distance, orientation, and operating environment.

Can it support RFID inventory management and RFID asset tracking?

Yes. Typical applications include warehouse inventory, cycle counting, receiving, RFID inventory tracking, tool and equipment identification, logistics, and field asset checks. The handheld reader is the mobile data-capture component; backend workflow depends on the deployed software.

Which Android and SDK options are available?

The supplied product information lists Android 10 and Android 13 configurations. Request the project-matched SDK, APIs, sample code, documentation, and device configuration using a company email address.

Is RLRH-20 suitable for industrial and warehouse work?

The supplied datasheet states IP65 protection, 1.2 m drop resistance, continuous 0.5 m rolling-test capability, and an operating temperature range of −20°C to +55°C. Validate the final configuration against the actual site, handling, and cleaning conditions.
