RFID for wine bottles SATO
SATO has developed an RFID tag for glass bottles containing liquid, which will be rolled out in November. It can be fully attached to bottles with a high relative dielectric constant, such as glass, rubber, and wine (liquid), and the material is resistant to moisture such as condensation, so it maintains high reading accuracy even after one month of use in a wine cellar with high humidity.
General RFID tags are not suitable for use with containers containing liquid, such as wine bottles, because liquid absorbs radio waves. For this reason, SATO has developed an RFID tag for adherends with a high relative dielectric constant.
Due to its product characteristics, wine is stored in a wine cellar, so inventory checks are performed for each bottle. Product checks require knowledge of the brand, and inventory checks and inventory checks are performed while checking the label of each bottle, which requires management by a sommelier who can distinguish between the two, and takes time, making inventory management and inventory a heavy burden.
