The system design of the Impinj ItemEncode system is dependent on individual use cases. This guide will outline a few possibilities for the ItemEncode system.
An ItemEncode Pipeline Encoding Systems provides the best way of increasing encoding throughput and reliability. ItemEncode accomplishes this by distributing the encoding work across multiple encoding devices. This mode is designed to encode a stream of tags, such as a web of tags in a reel to reel system.
An ItemEncode Bulk Encoding system can be used to encode batches of tags, such as a carton of tagged items. The system can be a single ItemEncode device or can be used in a Pipeline system. It can be used with a variety of Serialization Modes and Serialization Schemes.
