Features of the scenario
In this example scenario. items must be distributed to the correct storage location in a
transport container via a separating filter. The RFID tags of type SIMATIC RF630L are
directly attached to the item. The maximum transport velocity of the conveyor is 2 m/s.
In this scenario, bulk acquisition is necessary because several objects must be detected at
the same time.
The SIMATIC RF630R reader uses two external antennas in a portal arrangement to read
the information from the tags on the passing items and transfers it to the SIMATIC S7
controller via a communication module. The SIMATIC S7 controls the separating filter of the
conveyor system depending on the tag information.
The SIMATIC RF610M mobile handheld terminal is used in this example for additional
analysis and visualization of the item data directly on-site. The mobile handheld terminal can
transfer the data to SIMATIC RF-MANAGER over the WLAN, and this then controls the
separating filter via the SIMATIC S7 controller.
