CreativeLift Magnet with Radio Frequency ID

August 13, 2013

Industrial Magnetics Inc. offers its CreativeLift Lifting Magnet with RFID (Radio Frequency ID) for ease of product identification and tracking in plant maintenance programs. The RFID (radio frequency identification) device, manufactured by InfoChip, aides maintenance and quality personnel in documenting the lift magnets' location, inspection history, safety compliance and maintenance record as part of their company's control programs.

The RFID chip can be read with most standard readers, or one of several models available for purchase from InfoChip, who also offers complete desktop, online or mobile software solutions for companies without an existing program.

States Dennis O'Leary, IMI's President, "One of our goals is to constantly strive to add value to our products. Recognizing the importance of RFID technology in today's quality control and maintenance programs, the CreativeLift marks the third lift magnet that we've added RFID to as a standard feature."
