How to Use EAS RF ink tags?

The ink tag consists of a rigid housing that contains a transmitter. This transmitter is in constant communication with an antenna protecting the entrance to the store.
1. The ink tag is attached to the item using a pin that passes through the product fabric. The pin is then locked into the ink tag.
There are two common locking mechanisms used in ink tags – mechanical and magnetic locks.
In the case of magnetic locks, there are different strengths available, from standard to superlock, superlock and multipole. The higher the magnetic strength, the more difficult it is to remove the tag illegally, and SuperLock is the recommended minimum magnetic strength.
Also, security pins should have a large enough tip to ensure that they are not forced through the fabric of the attached item, and there is a range of available pin sizes.
Ink tags also come in a variety of shapes, which also affects the difficulty of removing them illegally.
These shapes include round, square and pencil-shaped tags. Round tags with pins (or flip-top tags) correspond to the size of the tag and are considered one of the most difficult tags for store pickpockets to remove. They are more difficult to force open because there is little surface area available for purchase and the pin cannot be forced through the product without causing visible cuts or tears.
Also, hard tags can be secured to items such as handbags and shoes with steel cables, and bottles and eyeglasses can be secured to products with specially designed hard ink tags.

2. Removal of ink tags
When the product is sold, the ink tag needs to be removed. This simple process is performed using a separation device mounted on the point-of-sale counter. Whether it is a mechanical device or a high-powered magnet, the remover releases the ink tag’s locking mechanism and allows the tag to be removed. The tag can be reused on other products.
