Причина отмены This test method determined the readability of radio frequency identification (RFID) transponders placed on loaded containers that are manually handled or mechanically handled by material handling equipment such as fork trucks, pallet jacks, and automated guided vehicle systems.

Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee D10 on Packaging, this test method was withdrawn in November 2018. This standard is being withdrawn without replacement due to its limited use by industry.

Значение и использование

5.1 Many materials used in the production of goods can have an adverse affect on the performance of an RFID system. This test method qualifies the performance of an RFID system applied to a loaded container relative to the performance of the same RFID system applied to an empty case. Comparison of these two elements of this test method will identify the compatibility of the RFID systems and the product being tested.

5.2 This test method is intended for systems used exclusively within the United States. Additional test standards from ISO or other standards bodies may apply to internationally handled goods and may include additional test scenarios not outlined in this test method.

Область применения

1.1 This test method determines the readability of radio frequency identification (RFID) transponders placed on loaded containers that are manually handled or mechanically handled by material handling equipment such as fork trucks, pallet jacks, and automated guided vehicle systems. The results of these tests are intended to be used for qualitative purposes.

1.2 Test results solely reflect the performance of the specified RFID system and the specified loaded container. Results are not intended for performance analysis of the RFID system, in part or in whole.

1.3 This test method is intended for use in laboratory settings that simulate, as closely as is practicable, the distribution environment of the product being tested.

1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.

1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
