adhesive tag

The International AntiCounterfeiting Coalition, a trade group focused on reducing counterfeiting, estimates that US business loses $200 billion adhesive annually due to counterfeit products. In addition to this large economic impact, counterfeiting also has significant safety implications in applications such as auto parts, aircraft parts, and military parts. Numerous fatal automobile and aircraft accidents have been attributed to counterfeit parts. Whether the application is brand protection, quality control or security; the economic value of Keymaster''s technology to customers is substantial. Today quality management is a systems approach involving people, processes, leadership and continous improvement principles; all driving toward providing customers products and services that meet their needs on time every time and at the right price.

First, it is straight forward to tag low Z compounds including -- plastics, organic chemicals and fiber materials so that they can be tracked in a process. Second, these products can readily identify the ratio of the mixture in a quick and non-destructive manner and thus be used in demanding manufacturing processes. Third, this can all be achieved without affecting the desired performance of the materials. And, as an added bonus, the final material also has an elemental tag detectable by these analyses, which one can use to identify the product as that of a particular manufacturer. The taggants are developed specifically with your company''s unique signature for totally covert product protection and authentication.

The TRACeR''s PDA user interface makes its operation fast and simple, providing additional tools such as voice recording and notepad. KeyMaster''s Authentication Technology combines multiple scientific disciplines to create an innovative process of tagging and detecting unique elemental codes. keymaster works with the product manufacturer to develop an appropriate elemental tagging system.Then, the TRACeR XRF Analyzer identifies the unique elemental properties of the taggant through KeyMaster''s tag patented spectral analysis. KTI''s authentication system provides a completely covert. method for material authentication and quality control. Break throughs at keymaster allow positive, defensible identification or rejection in seconds.No reverse engineering, Secure data collection and verification, Fully customized ID system, The TRACeR is capable of detecting all of the elements present, with atomic energies as low as Sulfur and as high as Plutonium, in the periodic table, in concentrations, ranging from 100% down to a few ppm. Here''s How it Works (Operating Principles): Uses X-ray Tube Rather than Radioactive Source to Excite Characteristic X-rays to Perform Simultaneous Analysis of Multiple Elements, including K and L-shells. Incredibly Adaptable... Here are Some of the Applications: Brand Protection - Easy authenticaion when combined with KTI''s patented tagging system.
