Anti-shoplifting
or Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS):
|
|
 |
| Electronic Article Surveillance has been a recent addition in our product line. The basic idea is to protect customer's asset or articles from theft by putting labels with electric circuits in them. The main areas of focus are: |
|
| EAS Solutions: |
| Solutions for Libraries: |
| Improve your library services with Mondial's innovative technology. |
| The modern library offers its patrons an exceptional variety of materials. Mondial offers an equally exceptional range of products to help today's libraries protect their collections while streamlining operations and improving service to their patrons. From radio frequency (RF) and electro-magnetic (EM) anti-theft tags and sensors, to CCTV systems, to our state-of-the-art RFID-based Systems, Mondial provide a safe, effective and efficient way to protect library materials, such as: |
|
| Solution for Shops and Stores: |
| Mondial raises traditional retail merchandising technologies to new heights. |
| Today's consumers are in a hurry. They want pricing and promotional information at a glance. And they want fast, efficient service. Give your customers what they want, with Mondial's complete range of cost-effective retail merchandising solutions. |
| Mondial's retail merchandising solutions are ideal for food retailers, DIY and other non-food retail environments that rely heavily on in-store promotion of a wide range of products. They also fit the bill for small to medium-sized retailers who don't need or can't afford proprietary or fully customized merchandising materials. With Mondial, you can have quality and cost savings. |
| EAS Systems
technical overview: |
| Electronic
Article Surveillance or EAS systems are still becoming
nevermore popular and are nowadays widely accepted as
an effective means to eliminate theft. Basically there are 2 types of systems which electronically detect theft at the exit of retail outlets. The different technical principals of each system have specific advantages and are therefore suitable for specific applications. All systems operate in conjunction with tags or labels attached to be protected. |
| Electronic or electric components concealed in the label will respond with a more or less unique small signal when passing the EAS antenna('s): |
| Radio Frequent or RF systems: |
| RF systems are the most common and widely applied systems. A label which is attached to a product, will respond to specific frequency emitted by a transmitter antenna. The response from the label is in turn being picked up by an adjacent receiver antenna. The label response signal is being processed and will trigger an alarm when it matches specific criteria. The distance between the antenna's can in most cases be up to 2 meters (80"). Operating frequencies range from 2 till 10 MHz is the most widely used frequency and has become more or less standard in most countries. In Pakistan mostly 8.2MHz frequency is used. Most RF systems are so called dual systems using a separate transmitter (TX) and receiver antenna (RX). In most cases RF systems use a frequency sweep technique in order to coop with tolerances in label frequencies. The so called hard and soft labels which are attached to the products have a special lock mechanism in order to remove the label only at the each register, by using a special detached. Other so called paper labels or sticker tags are not removed from the product but electrically destroyed by an electronic deactivator. Sometimes both the receiver (RX) and transmitter (TX) are combined in one antenna frame, a so called mono systems, whereby the system can apply pulse or continuous sweep technique or a combination of both. Pulse technique used in mono systems has the advantage that, when using more than one transmitter no synchronization through separate coaxial cables is needed, resulting in easier installation. An advantage of mono systems is that for small entries one antenna will be sufficient, the area covered or detection zone is about + and -1 meter (+/-40") from center of the antenna. Mono systems are applied in conjunction with fine tuned (hard) labels which are slightly more expensive than normal labels used with sweep techniques. Mono systems are in general more direction sensitive and have a lower sensitivity, decreasing slightly the detection hit rate. Because of tolerances and a lower (direction) sensitivity than dual systems, mono systems are normally not applied in conjunction with paper labels. |

| Electromagnetic
or EM systems: |
| A strip consisting of a alloy of magnetic and ferrous material with an adhesive layer is attached to a product to be secured. By applying intensive low frequency magnetic fields generated by an EM transmitter antenna, the strip, when passing the field, will transmit a unique frequency pattern, which is in turn being picked up by an adjacent EM receiver antenna, the small signal is being processed and will trigger an alarm when the specific pattern is being recognized. In some cases transmitter and receiver are combined in both antenna's whereby alternating reception and transmission will provide a more omni-directional field which increases the detection hit rate. The EM strip is not removed at the cash register but simply deactivated by a specific highly intensive magnetic fields. EM strips are intensive to direct mounting on metal surfaces. A unique feature of an EM strip is that it can be (re-) activated, and in this way be used as a very low cost one bit read/write transponder, applied in libraries. Because of the weak response signal of the strip and due to the low frequency and intensive field needed, EM antenna's are rather big when compared to other EAS systems. The maximum distance between two antennas is limited to 1 meter (40"). |
| EAS Equipment: |
 |
| The EAS system is an anti-shoplifting system that operates on radio frequency of 8.2MHz known as an RF SYSTEM. |
| Our entire range of security tags can be utilized with this system. This includes the mini tag, the wafer tag, the soft tag and our range of sticky labels. |
| The advantage of this system is in the detection range for wide gates (isles) specially designed for big department stores. Some main design features are: |
|
 |
| Sticker and Hard Tags: |
 |
 |
 |
| DEACTIVATOR: |
| Electronic Deactivator for RF Labels. It deactivates the sticky labels without actually removing them. |
 |
|
 |
| Hard Tag Detacher: |
| It detaches the hard tags from the items. |
| It easily releases EAS Hard Tags from the protected articles at the point-of-sale. It is extremely durable, and is constructed with holes around the outer rim so that it can be secured to the countertop. |
