SAMSys Technologies Works with LXE to Give the Supply Chain a Lift
SAMSys and LXE Demonstrate Industrial RFID Data Collection Solution at
the EPCglobal Technology Expo November 4-5, 2003
TORONTO, Nov. 6 /CNW/ - SAMSys Technologies Inc. (SMY:TSX-VEN)
("SAMSys"), an international provider of radio frequency identification (RFID)
hardware solutions and consulting services, today announced that it will be
demonstrating its RFID readers in use with LXE rugged forklift mounted
computers.
LXE's VX4 Vehicle Mount Computer, used in conjunction with SAMSys' MP9320
UHF forklift mounted RFID reader, provides a complete RFID and mobile data
collection solution. This combined solution gives customers the flexibility to
track goods as they are moved within the depot, and can provide real-time
visibility of inventory in transit. And, with the ability to read data in real
time and transfer this information to a data collection application, the
management of goods is streamlined and the supply chain is enhanced.
"SAMSys' multi-protocol reader easily integrates into our mobile solution
and offers our customers real time data collection solution that increases
productivity and accuracy in their supply chain," says Jim Childress,
President and General Manager of LXE. "Through this alliance we are able to
demonstrate a flexible, robust RFID technology solution that streamlines and
automates the entire supply chain - from manufacturing through distribution to
the retail floor."
SAMSys' comprehensive line of RFID readers spans low frequency, high
frequency and UHF, support a broad range of protocols and standards, and
enables implementation without the fear of near term obsolescence. For almost
10 years SAMSys has played an active role in RFID industry and has
consistently advocated an RFID adoption strategy based upon the optimization
of functionality, multi-protocol reader architectures, and ease of reader
interrogation. SAMSys also provides consulting services that focus on the
front-end of the RFID implementation process.
"This partnership is yet another example of how RFID technology is being
recognized by supply chain managers as a strategic implementation and will
soon be accepted as a standard," says Cliff Horwitz, Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer of SAMSys. "The combination of our MP9320 reader and LXE's
VX4 rugged vehicle mount terminal brings together two critical pieces of
technology that will change the way goods are tracked and data is collected."
SAMSys offers a selection of reader solutions including standard
frequency-specific modules, custom-made application specific reader systems,
and OEM modules to provide tailored solutions for a wide variety of supply
chain management, logistics management, and tracking and fulfillment
applications. In addition to providing reader solutions, SAMSys offers
consulting services that focus on the front-end of the RFID implementation
process. |
