Aussie Co. Gamma Uses Intermec's IV7C

Tuesday, November 13, 2007

Gamma Solutions has started using the Intermec IV7C, Intermec’s new version of its vehicle-mount RFID reader.

This rugged RFID tag reader is designed to read RFID tags anywhere within reach of a forklift. The Intermec IV7C is the only forklift RFID reader on the market that is both EPCglobal certified compliant and interoperable.

“Customers are growing in their knowledge of how to apply technology in their material handling operations. As a result, our equipment is becoming an information platform that delivers an entirely new level of productivity,” said NACCO Manager of Aftermarket Business Development Jonathan Dawley. “We are excited to explore this technology with Intermec because a relationship would enable us to deliver RFID and AIDC solutions to the market based on specific customer needs.” [end] 

Sticking to its plan for a contactless rollout in 2012, Australian retailer Coles has selected Ingenico to provide its Ingenico iPP350 contactless payment terminals.

According to finextra.com, the Aussie retailer first piloted the technology in September 2011, and has since decided to expand. All business groups will deploy the new iPP350 across 24,000 lanes within the next few months, making the retailer one of the first in Australia to offer the contactless payment option.
