Company to Demo Real-Time, Real-World Pallet Build, Pallet Receive & Spot
Check Reader Functionality of LPS 8.4 at RFID World
YORK, Maine, Feb. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Coming just four months following the
release last September of GEN2-compliant advances to its flagship all-in-one
barcode label printing and RFID 'Smart Label' software system, Loftware today
announced it has again expanded its offerings with the significant addition of
RFID reader support for Alien, Symbol, ThingMagic, and AWID. Available
immediately, the new Loftware Print Server (LPS) 8.4 delivers new RFID reader
functionality that not only represents the next logical step in the Company's
long history of innovation in marking technology, but also delivers a
uniquely-positioned and timely solution for systems requiring a mixture of
barcode and RFID technology, while remaining hardware agnostic.
A proven brand leader for its ability to integrate from a centralized
software platform both RFID 'Smart Labels' as well as traditional bar code
labeling, this latest release of the Loftware Print Server further extends
these capabilities by adding software support for fixed mount RFID reader
technology from companies like Alien, Symbol, AWID and ThingMagic. As a
result, companies implementing pilot programs can use multiple hardware
devices with a single software solution from Loftware. Loftware's highly
integrated, multi-device platform encodes and now reads both 'Smart Labels'
and RF Tags to perform real time use cases, including building, receiving, and
verifying pallets.
The Loftware Print Server is a server-based software solution for managing
and processing barcode label and RFID 'Smart Label' requests from corporate
applications. An enterprise-class solution, LPS 8.4 is a highly-scalable and
fault tolerant system designed to handle thousands of requests targeted to
hundreds (or thousands) of printers, whether local or remote, with all of the
appropriate queuing, status, and recovery features expected in advanced
enterprise systems. Key to its leading market status is the product's seamless
integration of Department of Defense (DOD) and EPC specifications via
universal interfaces for HF, UHF, and GEN 2 RFID whether printing smart labels
or encoding RFID tags.
"The key to this advanced solution from Loftware," said Chief Technology
Officer Dana Anderson, "Is that with a single instance of the print server, a
user can meet barcode and smart label requirements as well as other RFID use
cases like verification, pallet building, and pallet receiving. LPS 8.4 allows
those with an existing legacy barcode infrastructure who want to bring RFID
into their operations a less disruptive 'phased in' approach."
Preview of Real-World Pallet Demo at RFID World in Dallas
At RFID World this February 27th to March 1st at the Gaylord Texan Resort
in Dallas, Texas, Loftware will be demonstrating several real-world, real-time
applications of LPS 8.4 and reader functionality. The demonstration will show
the integration of pallet building along with smart label printing. Once a
pallet is built and verified using cartons marked with SGTIN tags, an SSCC
pallet tag will be automatically produced with the same application.
