Xerafy - Slim TRAK (Global)

Ultra-thin at 1.30 mm - RFID for MRO tools and defense equipment

When a UHF RFID tag has to sit on devices that are held in hand every day, packed into cases or stored tightly next to each other, every tenth of a millimetre of build height matters. The Xerafy Slim TRAK X0330-GL001-H9 delivers exactly here: at a build height of just 1.30 mm, it is one of the thinnest tags in the entire Xerafy family and the right pick for MRO tool tracking, IT asset management on flat devices and the tracking of military equipment. If you already operate a UHF | RAIN – RFID reader at tool dispensing points, in defense inventories or for IT asset audits, this variant extends your capture strategy to exactly those devices that thicker tags could not handle.

Inside, the Alien Higgs 9 IC delivers 96-bit TID, 48-bit EPC and 688-bit user memory. Within the TRAK line, this is the only variant with the Higgs 9 chip and therefore the only TRAK option with the full 688-bit user memory capacity – a clear advantage for MRO applications where calibration history, tool lifecycle, service intervals and ownership identifiers need to live directly on the asset. In the EU 865–868 MHz band, the tag reaches up to 2 m read range on metal and up to 1.5 m off metal, which is exactly the right distance for tool dispensing, asset audits and inventory scans.

Measuring 56.50 x 5.95 x 1.30 mm and weighing just 1 g, the tag is the slimmest and lightest in the entire TRAK line. The high-temperature polymer housing provides a survival temperature of up to +150 °C – also the top value within the TRAK family, qualifying the Slim TRAK for light thermal loads in maintenance and repair environments as well.

The following part number is available in the IDCRAFT online shop – this variant is designed for a specific use case:

• X0330-GL001-H9 – Xerafy Slim TRAK in the global configuration with Alien Higgs 9 IC, 48-bit EPC and 688-bit user memory. Ultra-thin form factor 56.50 x 5.95 x 1.30 mm at just 1 g, high-temperature polymer housing, IP68 rated, survival temperature −40 °C to +150 °C, 731 kPa compression strength. Read range up to 2 m on metal and 1.5 m off metal, attachment via industrial adhesive. The right pick for European MRO workshops, IT departments with flat device surfaces and defense or security agencies that need to label tools, asset pools and military equipment clearly.

The key difference compared to the other TRAK variants lies in the height and temperature profile: while the Versa TRAK targets maximum read range, the Data TRAK II and Global TRAK cover IT and logistics areas, and the Circular TRAK is optimised for food-grade applications, the Slim TRAK combines ultra-thin form factor with the highest survival temperature and generous user memory.

Technical Highlights

• EPC Gen2 / ISO/IEC 18000-63 compliant – works with all common UHF RFID readers and reader platforms
• Alien Higgs 9 IC with 688-bit user memory – stores tool lifecycle, calibration and service data
• Up to 2 m read range on metal and 1.5 m off metal – fit for tool dispensing and asset audits
• Survival temperature up to +150 °C – highest temperature class within the TRAK line
• High-temperature polymer housing 56.50 x 5.95 x 1.30 mm at just 1 g, IP68 rated

Applications

• MRO tool tracking – RFID identification of flat tools and maintenance equipment
• IT asset management – tag attachment on flat device surfaces such as notebooks and tablets
• Defense and military asset tracking – labelling of weapons and security-relevant equipment
• Tool pools in aviation MRO – slim form factor for tight tool case storage

The Xerafy Slim TRAK is the variant within the TRAK line for all applications where the priority is not maximum read range or dense-tag capture, but the most unobtrusive, heat-resistant tag attachment possible. At just 1.30 mm build height, the tag can be placed virtually anywhere without affecting the function or handling of the host object – a clear advantage for sensitive tools, avionics and military equipment.

Thanks to its EPC Gen2 compliance, the tag integrates seamlessly into existing UHF | RAIN – RFID infrastructures. It works reliably with fixed readers at tool dispensing points, tunnel antennas above inventory conveyors and mobile handheld scanners. There is no need to swap reader hardware or rework middleware – read-out works exactly as with any standard UHF tag.
