Tag Selection, Orientation and Placement
As a label converter and manufacturer of Smart Trac™ labels, Lowry applies its years of knowledge to evaluate and select the best tag option for an application. RFID tags perform differently depending on the composition and contents of the container. Lowry performs multi-directional testing on the actual container to determine the right RFID smart label and best location for placement on the container to achieve optimal read performance.
RFID Equipment Selection and Configuration
Based upon each customer’s business processes and requirements, Lowry determines the best RFID equipment for the specific application.

Site Survey
A site survey is a necessary component of any successful RFID implementation.
A site survey is a discovery process where all aspects of the business
process are documented including product flow and routing, product touch
points, data flow and infrastructure. In addition, the facility is surveyed for potential
physical barriers and potential radio frequency (RF) trouble spots. The
survey serves as the basis for the system design and the implementation plan.
Radio Frequency Analysis
Lowry provides the services necessary to
complete on site RF testing to resolve radio
frequency interference issues. Utilizing state-ofthe-
art portable spectrum analyzers, Lowry is
able to quickly identify the source of undesirable
RF interference and make recommendations to
resolve the issue.
