The Pico Wedge is designed to facilitate quick embedding of metal RFID tags in industrial applications. The identification of assets in industrial environments can be extremely challenging because there is a risk the attached tags may be damaged or detached in the rugged environment they inhabit. The Pico Wedge’s design not only protects the chip but also enables embedded RFID in a quick, convenient and efficient way. Thanks to its innovative design, the Pico Wedge can be easily plugged into circular recesses on metallic assets without the need to mess with epoxy.
