IDENTIFICATION
Inductive Sensors
With the compact or modular RFID system from Turck, you can use the proven HF technology and the wide-reaching UHF technology in parallel in one identification solution. The Turck RFID system offers data carriers, read/write heads, connectivity solutions and the corresponding interfaces, which can be flexibly combined depending on requirements. Interfaces are available for OPC UA, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP™, Modbus TCP, TCP/IP, PROFIBUS-DP, DeviceNet™, CANopen and EtherCAT®.
Read/Write Head HF/UHF
Application optimized read/write heads in the industry-standard design (up to IP69K with HF), allow for optimal integration into your application. Depending on the environmental conditions, read-write ranges of up to 1 m (HF) or several meters (UHF) are possible. The radio interface for read/write heads and data carriers is internationally standardized (ISO 15693 and ISO 18000-6c with HF at UHF).
Tags HF/UHF
The rugged tags (data carriers) with high protection class are insensitive to dirt and liquids and are available with a max. memory size of 8 kB.
They are passively powered via the read/write head and are maintenance free.
Tags for high temperatures and direct mounting on metal allow flexible use under extreme conditions. Tags for use in hazardous areas and autoclavs complete the product portfolio.
Interfaces HF/UHF
RFID interfaces from Turck connect the write-read heads to the OPC UA, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP™, Modbus TCP, TCP/IP, PROFIBUS-DP, DeviceNet™, CANopen and EtherCAT® networks. The fully encapsulated TBEN multiprotocol modules with RFID and I/Os (IP67/IP69K), as well as the modular BL67 system (IP67), are ideal for direct use in harsh environments. Users are thus saved the task of setting up protective boxes in the field. Customers use Turck’s BL20 modular system for mounting on a DIN rail in the switch cabinet. The programmable variants of the RFID interfaces perform preprocessing steps and control actions directly on the module.
Handhelds HF/UHF/Barcode
For location-independent reading and writing of the tags (data carriers), we offer handhelds for the HF or UHF frequency band. The data is displayed on the touch screen of the TA handhelds and can be edited and written to appropriate tags by means of our application software. Depending on the requirements, the handhelds can be supplied with barcode scanner, WLAN and Bluetooth and with customized application software on request.
Barcode Readers
Our barcode readers are camera-based reading devices in a compact and robust housing. During product identification in production and logistics areas, the most widely used 1D and 2D codes are captured and evaluated. The data recorded is transferred via an RS232 or Ethernet interface, depending on requirements, to facilitate the further exchange of information to a controller. The setup is carried out quickly without need for a PC and takes place directly on a touchscreen connected to the device. To offer customers flexibility in selecting the right barcode reader, a range of models with different lenses and internal lighting are available.

Accessories
The BL ident® connectivity portfolio offers field-wireable extension cables in various versions (Standard, Economy and Food & Beverage) for the secure communication between interface and read/write head as well as field-wireable bus and supply lines. The accessories include mounting adapters for read/write heads and tags, as well as protective frames for read/write heads. In addition, the portfolio also includes handheld readers for mobile reading and writing of data carriers.
