SATO Unveils Turnkey NFC/HF RFID Encoding Solution with NiceLabel

SATO Holdings Corporation has announced that its CT4-LX desktop and CL4NX Plus industrial RFID printers can now natively encode and print 13.56MHz high-frequency (HF) and near-field communication (NFC) stickers and tags using HF and NFC data exchange format (NDEF) commands with NiceLabel, a world standard in label design software. This innovation enables inventory control, traceability, brand protection, and improved consumer experience in various industries. For example, NFC tags could provide a way for consumers to track the entire journey of their medicine, from factory to pharmacy. Additionally, NFC is an optimal counterfeit protection solution for automotive parts and electronic component manufacturers.
