Hardware

Handheld Readers

Count a room, find one tag, work anywhere

5 types listedSupplied & commissionedBulk & OEM available

A handheld reader is what turns a stock-take from a shutdown into a walk. It reads hundreds of tags a second while you move, it finds one specific tag with a Geiger-counter search, and it works where no fixed reader will ever be installed — a yard, a customer site, a ward, a showroom.

In plain words

A handheld RFID reader is a rugged Android computer with a UHF reader inside it, or a sled that clips onto a phone. Our software runs on the device, so counting works with no network and syncs afterwards.

What you get from us

Not just the box

Our app runs on the device

The S-Tech Android app is installed on the handheld, so counting, searching and reconciling happen on the device rather than in a spreadsheet afterwards.

Works with no network

Reads are stored on the handheld and sync when it is back on Wi-Fi or 4G. A basement or a yard with no signal is not a problem.

Find one tag

Search mode turns the reader into a proximity finder that gets louder as you approach the item you are looking for.

Barcode too

Every terminal we supply also reads 1D and 2D barcodes, so mixed environments work on one device.

Where it is used

Typical applications

  • Warehouse cycle counting
  • Showroom and shop stock-take
  • Fixed asset physical verification
  • Yard and container audits
  • Ward and store checks in hospitals

Solutions that use it

Compatible software

What it runs with

It also works with software we did not write. We integrate at protocol level, so this hardware can be driven from your own system — that is a service we offer.

Bulk, MOQ and OEM

Handhelds are supplied with the S-Tech Android application, chargers, spare batteries and a device management setup. Ask about buy-back and rental where you need devices only for an annual audit.
