SATO CL4NX Plus Series Thermal UHF RFID Printer

SKU: WWCLP1701-NAR-C|Model: SATO CL4NX

The SATO CL4NX Plus Series Thermal UHF Printer sets a new and innovative industry standard for ease of use, intelligence, on-board industry emulations, connectivity, speed of processing data streams, user activity interface, and so much more. With the UHF RFID capability of this printer, businesses can save on labor, speed up operations, and enjoy many advantages offered by this industrial printer. The SATO CL4NX Plus can print text and barcodes on UHF tags and encode data in their embedded chips at the same time. An HF/NFC SATO CL4NX Plus Printer model is also available for HF and NFC tags. The user-friendly interface and on-screen menus will save users the trouble of adjusting the antenna position manually. Additionally, the printer is capable of checking RFID chips prior to encoding to verify their readiness and helps prevents failures. Rich in benefits and features, the SATO CL4NX Plus offers the SATO RF Analyze (SRA) function optimizing the antenna and inlay settings automatically for fast and stable encoding. Users can now find the best settings to encode RFID tags when their characteristics vary randomly due to lot differences or adjusting the write/read conditions as needed when encoding errors appear.
