Price Increases

Monday, December 5, 2022

Prices At EasyLogic and IDCARDplaza we have kept prices for certain products, our hourly rates and maintenance and hosting costs at the same level for 5 years. Now we are faced with significant price increases due to rising energy prices, weakness of the Euro against the US$, and overall inflation. This means that the costs of hosting, equipment, transport, etc. will increase significantly, but also our personnel costs. Some suppliers increase prices to us by 12-14%.

Chips shortage

Saturday, January 1, 2022

Chip shortage You have undoubtedly heard about the chip shortage in the car industry as a result of the Corona crisis. Now you are probably wondering: “What does that have to do with my keyfob or RFID equipment”? To summarize, car manufacturers thought that Corona would cause them sell fewer cars and they have greatly reduced their orders for automotive electronics and chips. But at the same time, the demand for chips for PCs, laptops, smartphones, playstations, servers for data centers and the like increased, partly due to people working from all over the world.

RFID in production and assembly processes

Friday, November 20, 2020

The car industry has been using it for a long time. The use of RFID (radio frequency identification) to identify parts and subassemblies. The “Build-to-Order” process, where each product that comes of the line has its own unique combination of options and colours would be almost impossible or too expensive without automatic identification of parts. But RFID is not just applicable for products with extensive configuration (like computersystems, bicycles or airplanes).

The pharmaceutical sector is under pressure. Corona has caused the demand for vaccins and other medication to rise sharply. At the same time, there is recognition for the increase of vulnerability that is caused by production of medicines in Asia and consequently the complex supply chain. RFID and NFC have many applications in the pharmaceutical sector, such as: Traceability of medication Stockcontrol Patient safety Anti-counterfeiting Download the Brochure (in Dutch) or read more below.

Real Time Locating Systems

Friday, May 18, 2018

Real-time locating systems (RTLS) are used to follow and track people or objects through time. RTLS are frequently employed within a pre-defined area or indoors. As opposed to GPS (which is available world-wide but not indoors) RTLS requires receivers at fixed, reference locations to be able to determine the exact location of a person or object. A wireless RTLS transponder is attached to the person or object. In most RTLS systems the fixed receivers in known locations are used to determine the exact location of the object.
