      FAQ

      Q1: How is such a small chip attached to a tool?

      A: We offer several solutions: ① Industrial adhesive backing (most common) ② Embedded within plastic handles (via injection molding) ③ Secured with cable ties ④ Custom mounting brackets. We will recommend the optimal solution based on the tool’s material and its operating environment.

      Q2: Is a reading distance of 10–150 mm too short?

      A: This is actually an advantage of near-field precision identification; it allows for: ① Prevention of accidental reads from surrounding tools ② Stable performance in metal-rich environments ③ Reading through non-metallic materials. It is ideally suited for close-range scenarios, such as tool cabinets and tool carts. For applications requiring longer reading distances, antenna extensions can be configured.

      Q3: What makes PEEK material special?

      A: PEEK is a specialized, high-performance engineering plastic featuring: ① High heat resistance (up to 260°C) ② Resistance to strong acids, alkalis, and oils ③ Resistance to impact and vibration ④ Compatibility with gamma-ray sterilization. It is more than 10 times more durable than standard plastics.

      Q4: Will the tags fall off or get damaged easily?

      A: ① We use 3M VHB industrial-grade adhesive, offering extremely high bonding strength ② The PEEK material provides excellent impact resistance ③ IP67-rated protection ensures water and dust resistance ④ The tags have undergone rigorous drop and vibration testing. Under normal usage conditions, they can last for over 10 years.

      Q5: Can these chips be embedded into tools that we manufacture ourselves?

      A: Absolutely! We offer: ① Consultation on the embedding process ② Sample encapsulation and testing ③ Batch embedding services ④ Alternatively, we can supply the bare chips for you to encapsulate yourself. We have successful case studies involving tires, plastic handles, rubber components, and more.

      Q6: What is the MOQ, and what is the pricing?

      A: The MOQ varies depending on the specific model and encapsulation method; please contact our customer service team for details. We will provide a customized quotation based on your specific volume requirements.

      Q7: How long does delivery take?

      A: Standard encapsulation takes 4–6 weeks, while custom encapsulation takes 6–8 weeks; the development of new embedding processes requires a separate evaluation. Rush orders can be expedited upon negotiation.

      Q8: Do you support trial testing?

      A: Yes, we do! We offer: ① Free application consultation ② Sample requests (for small-batch testing) ③ Proof of Concept (POC) validation ④ Technical support to assist with testing. This ensures the proposed solution is viable before you proceed with a bulk purchase.
