RFID Solutions for Inventory Tracking & Source Tagging

EAM has been an industry leader in designing and integrating machines to dispense and apply EAS Labels/Tags. EAM labeler technology was developed to handle AM and RF-type labels that were hard to handle and apply accurately with standard labeling technology. RF labels incorporate similar characteristics as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) labels. EAM developed RFID labelers for customers in specialized markets several years ago.

Although RFID technology has existed for many years, the widespread use of RFID for inventory tracking and security is relatively new. We work directly and cooperatively with EAS and RFID label manufacturers to improve our equipment and their label manufacturing processes and bring the end customer the best EAS and RFID solutions. EAM’s extensive experience in this specialized product brings many advantages to your RFID labeling applications.

Other benefits of EAM’s RFID labelers include custom labeling and part handling solutions, high-speed application rate capability, and a small integration footprint. EAM Delta and Wipe-on RFID labeling machines provide solutions for all your RFID labeling needs. Our extensive staff, parts inventory, and 24-hour turnaround machine repair service provide many RFID labeling solutions, including service, assistance, and training options available to the customer.

The Advantage of Custom RFID Automation

EAM’s RFID systems are purpose-built to support fast, accurate tag application across a wide range of product types and production environments. Whether you’re applying RFID tags for retail inventory tracking or encoding them for secure asset identification, EAM’s solutions provide consistent performance and long-term reliability.

Key features and benefits include:

  • High-speed operation: Systems capable of applying tens of thousands of RFID tags per hour, supporting large-scale production without slowing throughput.
  • Precise tag placement: Designed for accuracy and repeatability, reducing read errors and ensuring compliance with positioning requirements.
  • Specialized handling: Built to work with AM and RF-style labels, including those that are difficult to manage with conventional labelers.
  • Compact design: Small machine footprints that make it easy to retrofit systems into existing lines without major changes.
  • Flexible controls: Digital label adjustments, line speed compensation, and encoder compatibility for fine-tuned system behavior.
  • Turnkey integration: Equipment is fully assembled and tested, ready for installation and startup, with support available for mounting, operator training, and spare parts.

Built for Your Environment and Workflow

EAM’s RFID systems are customized for a wide range of production settings. Each machine is configured to meet your specific needs—whether space constraints, tag material considerations, or performance targets.

Applications include:

  • Source tagging during production
  • RFID-enabled labeling lines
  • Retail product packaging with embedded RFID
  • Inventory checkpoints within fulfillment or warehouse systems

EAM works closely with manufacturers to ensure that RFID integration aligns with their traceability, compliance, and workflow requirements.

RFID Solutions That Deliver Measurable Impact

EAM’s RFID automation systems are used to support smarter, faster, and more accurate inventory management. By automating the tagging process and enabling real-time data collection, these systems help clients:

  • Track inventory in real time, without manual scanning or visual line-of-sight
  • Improve accuracy and traceability, especially in high-mix or serialized product lines
  • Reduce shrinkage and prevent theft by integrating security tagging during manufacturing
  • Cut labor costs and manual steps in restocking, order picking, and cycle counting
  • Optimize customer fulfillment by ensuring more accurate stock levels and order tracking

These benefits are especially valuable in environments with high volume, fast cycle times, or strict regulatory and quality control requirements.
