RFID Testing Lab
Neutral Evaluation of RFID Tagged Items – Item/Case/Pallet
Axia Lab is equipped to test an RFID tag’s optimum placement on one item to organizing packaged items on a pallet for maximum visbility. This page provides a “tour” of our RFID Testing Lab, the tests and reports generated and the leading-edge tools and equipment that make our research possible.
Item-Level Testing: RFID Lab
Overview
Testing individual items for end-to-end visability and traceability using RFID begins in the RFID Lab. Here, tests are done to identify the optimum tag and placement of the RFID tag. This RFID Lab has been granted ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accreditation by the ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB) for demonstrating technical competence in the field of testing.
Testing & Performance Parameters
This RFID Lab has been granted ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accreditation by the ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB) for demonstrating technical competence in the field of testing. The ISO-17025-2017_Certificate applies to the testing of UHF RFID-tagged items using Threshold Sweep, Orientation Sweep, and GS1’s Tagged-Item Performance Protocol (or TIPP) Guidelines.
Item level RFID testing includes the following tests and performance parameters.

Case or Tray-Level Testing: RFID Packaging Lab
Overview
Axia’s RFID Packaging Lab performs readability and verification tests on item-level tags or secondary packaging in a non-isolated environment. Here, totes, trays and boxes are run through one of two RFID tunnels to simulate manufacturer or distributor shipments or tested using a state-of-the-art RFID cabinet designed specifically for healthcare.

Pallet-Level Testing: Pallet Wrapper Lab
Overview
The Axia Lab can test products at the pallet level with our RFID-enabled pallet wrapper. This allows optimal readability at a tertiary packaging, high-product volume level as the machine rotates past the antenna multiple times allowing Axia’s team to receive highly accurate results.
