RFID Stick Reader for Cattle

The RFID Stick Reader for Cattle is a rugged portable electronic identification reader designed for fast scanning of cattle RFID ear tags and compatible livestock transponders. Its elongated antenna section allows operators to read animal IDs from a practical working distance while maintaining safer separation from cattle in chutes, yards and handling facilities.

The reader supports ISO-compatible HDX and FDX-B livestock identification technologies and can store animal IDs together with time stamps and additional management information. A large backlit color display, audible signals, vibration alerts and LED indicators provide clear operating feedback in noisy or low-light livestock environments.

With USB, Bluetooth and wireless communication options, the reader can transfer animal identification data to computers, mobile devices, electronic scales and compatible herd-management platforms. It is suitable for dairy farms, beef operations, feedlots, breeding centers, livestock markets and large agricultural identification projects.

• Long-Range EID Reading: Extended antenna design supports convenient scanning of electronic cattle ear tags without requiring close hand contact with the animal.
• HDX and FDX-B Compatibility: Supports common livestock transponders compliant with ISO 11784 / ISO 11785.
• Large Data Memory: High-capacity internal storage allows large numbers of animal records to be collected during herd work.
• Color Display: Backlit screen provides clear viewing of electronic ID numbers and additional animal information.
• Multiple Read Indicators: LED lights, audible signals and vibration provide confirmation of successful tag reading.
• Wireless Connectivity: Bluetooth and WLAN options support mobile herd management and data transfer.
• USB Data Connection: Provides convenient connection to computers and compatible farm equipment.
• Rechargeable Battery: Designed for extended field and livestock-yard operation.
• Rugged Farm Construction: Weather-resistant housing is suitable for demanding cattle handling environments.
• Ergonomic Stick Design: Balanced construction helps reduce operator fatigue during repetitive livestock scanning.

The stick reader generates a low-frequency RFID field through the antenna at the end of the reader. When a compatible electronic cattle ear tag or livestock transponder enters the reading zone, the transponder responds with its programmed identification number.

The electronic ID is displayed on the reader screen and can be stored together with a time stamp or additional animal information. Audible, visual and vibration signals can confirm that the identification number has been captured successfully.

Stored records can then be transferred to compatible herd-management software, electronic weighing systems, mobile devices or farm computers for animal traceability, breeding records, treatment history, weighing and inventory management.

Final reading range, memory capacity, communication interfaces, battery runtime and environmental protection should be confirmed according to the selected model and project requirements.

The RFID Stick Reader for Cattle is a portable device and normally requires no permanent installation. Before first use, charge the internal battery and configure communication settings according to the livestock management system.

• Fully charge the reader before extended herd work.
• Confirm that the cattle ear tags use a compatible RFID standard.
• Configure Bluetooth, WLAN, USB or serial communication when required.
• Test tag reading before beginning a large livestock identification session.
• Keep the antenna tip within the recommended reading distance of the electronic tag.
• Clean manure, dust and moisture from the housing after farm use.
• Keep charging and communication connectors clean and dry.
• Avoid severe impact or excessive bending of the stick reader body.
• Recharge the battery before prolonged storage.
• Store the reader in a protective case when not in use.

Q1: What cattle ear tags can the RFID stick reader detect?

Compatible professional readers can detect 134.2 kHz HDX and FDX-B livestock transponders compliant with ISO 11784 / ISO 11785.

Q2: How far can a cattle EID tag be read?

Reading distance depends on tag size, transponder type, orientation and surrounding conditions. Comparable professional readers provide a reference range of up to approximately 30 cm.

Q3: Can the reader store cattle IDs?

Yes. High-capacity configurations can store large numbers of electronic IDs together with time stamps and additional animal information.

Q4: Can data be transferred to a smartphone?

Yes. Bluetooth and WLAN-enabled configurations can communicate with compatible smartphones, tablets and livestock management applications.

Q5: Can the reader connect to an electronic cattle scale?

Yes. Compatible USB, serial or wireless interfaces can be used to integrate RFID identification with livestock weighing and farm-management systems.

Q6: Is the stick reader suitable for large commercial herds?

Yes. Long reading range, large data storage and multiple communication options make professional stick readers suitable for high-volume cattle identification work.

Q7: Can the reader be used in wet or dusty livestock environments?

Farm-ready configurations are designed with weather-resistant housings. The exact IP protection rating should be confirmed for the selected model.

Q8: Can SHEWUYOU provide a complete cattle RFID identification package?

Yes. RFID ear tags, stick readers, handheld readers, applicators, electronic scales and compatible livestock management integration can be supplied according to project requirements.
