herpa print presents titanID Steel
Rugged RFID tag for harsh environments and digital product data
herpa print is expanding its RFID portfolio with the titanID Steel. The self-adhesive RFID tag was developed for outdoor use, metallic surfaces, and particularly demanding industrial environments. It supports durable labeling and digital identification and can serve as a physical interface to digital product information, including the Digital Product Passport.
With the titanID Steel, herpa print introduces a particularly durable RFID tag designed for long-lasting identification in harsh environments. The self-adhesive tag is suitable for applications where traditional labels or simple RFID tags quickly reach their limits—for example, due to weather, UV radiation, contamination, or mechanical stress.
At the same time, permanent, digitally readable identification is becoming increasingly important for companies. The titanID Steel can uniquely identify objects and serve as a gateway to digital information—for example, to technical documentation, maintenance histories, test records, or, in the future, to the Digital Product Passport.
In this way, the RFID tag combines robust physical identification with digital transparency throughout the product and asset lifecycle.
Depending on the application and customer requirements, the titanID Steel can be equipped with HF/NFC RFID, UHF RFID, or as a hybrid variant with both RFID frequencies. This allows the tag to be flexibly adapted to various identification, tracking, and documentation processes. A particular advantage: The RFID tag can also be used on metallic surfaces, making it suitable for numerous industrial applications.
Designed for extreme conditions
The titanID Steel was specifically developed for outdoor use and particularly harsh environments. Its durability was tested under real-world extreme conditions: The RFID tag was deployed on an offshore facility for a period of more than one year.
It was found that the titanID Steel reliably withstands weather conditions, UV radiation, environmental contamination, and mechanical stress.
This makes the RFID tag particularly suitable for companies that require durable and robust identification—even in environments where moisture, temperature fluctuations, dirt, or heavy use are part of daily operations.
RFID Identification for Machinery, Equipment, and Assets
Typical applications for the titanID Steel include plant and machine identification, asset tracking, and other applications where long-lasting identification is required. In industry, logistics, energy supply, offshore facilities, maintenance, or technical documentation, the tag can help uniquely identify objects and reliably make digital information available.
By combining a robust design with RFID functionality, the titanID Steel supports companies in the digitalization of identification and inspection processes. Information can be read contactlessly without the need for line-of-sight. Depending on the RFID technology used, different ranges, interaction methods, and process requirements can be accommodated.
Customizable and flexibly adaptable
In addition to its technical features, the titanID Steel also offers design flexibility. The RFID tag can be custom-printed in multiple colors and manufactured in various sizes and shapes. This allows it to be adapted to corporate design guidelines, technical requirements, or object-specific identification concepts.
Companies can thus use the tag not only for digital identification but also as a visually recognizable, robust labeling solution.
