In the field of logistics and warehousing automation, miniaturized and highly integrated intelligent devices are becoming the core driving force for industry upgrading. As an innovative enterprise deeply engaged in the analysis and research and development of logistics and internal logistics technologies, Sieans, with its profound insight into industry pain points, has launched a breakthrough micro intelligent device - ScanMaster M1-Mini. This device is designed with the concept of "small volume, high energy", redefining the efficiency boundaries of warehouse scanning, RFID identification and data collection, and has become an indispensable "nerve endings" in the intelligent logistics system.
I. Miniaturization Design: An "Invisible Assistant" Breaking through Spatial Limitations
The ScanMaster M1-Mini measures only 25.4 millimeters in diameter, 2.8 millimeters in height and weighs less than 5 grams, yet it integrates a complete RFID reading and writing module and multi-protocol communication capabilities. Its design inspiration stems from the demand for "extreme space utilization" in logistics scenarios: whether it is the narrow gaps of shuttle vehicle shelves, the dense layout of sorting lines, or the limited load space of AGV robots, the M1-Mini can be seamlessly integrated to achieve "invisible deployment".
For instance, in a certain e-commerce warehousing project, traditional large-scale scanning equipment was too bulky to fit the automated sorting line. However, the M1-Mini was directly integrated into the sorting module, which increased the scanning recognition rate to 99.9% and saved 30% of the equipment floor space at the same time.
Ii. Full-band RFID Compatibility: The "Master Key" Covering All Scenarios
M1-Mini supports the 13.56MHz high-frequency (HF) RFID standard and is compatible with global mainstream Tag protocols such as EM4233, Tag-IT HF-I Plus, and Fujitsu FerVID. This feature enables it to seamlessly integrate with the existing logistics system and read various electronic tags, including goods pallets, turnover boxes, and drug supervision codes, without any additional modifications.
In medical cold chain logistics, M1-Mini is applied to the real-time tracking of vaccine transport boxes. By linking with the temperature sensor tag, the device can upload position and temperature and humidity data every 5 seconds, ensuring that the vaccine is transported within a strict temperature control range of -20℃ to 8℃, with an error rate of less than 0.1℃.
Iii. Ultra-low Power Consumption and Intelligent Power Management: The "Endurance Champion" That Never Stops
In view of the characteristic that logistics equipment needs to operate continuously for 24 hours, the M1-Mini adopts a three-level dynamic power consumption control technology:
Sleep mode: Power consumption is only 0.12mA, suitable for device idle periods.
Standby mode: Power consumption 5.5mA, supports fast wake-up;
Scanning mode: Peak power consumption 64mA, activated only when tags are recognized.
This design enables a single CR2032 button battery to support continuous operation of the equipment for over 18 months, significantly reducing maintenance costs in warehousing scenarios. In the practice of a certain auto parts factory, M1-Mini was installed on thousands of workstations and material racks. Through the extension of battery life, the annual maintenance time was reduced by 80%.
Iv. Multi-interface Communication Protocol: The "Bridge" to Break Down Data Silos
The M1-Mini supports three communication interfaces: UART (TTL), I2C, and SPI, and can be flexibly connected to devices such as PLCS, industrial computers, and embedded controllers. Its communication rate covers 4,800 bps to 115,200bps, ensuring stable data transmission even in high-speed sorting lines (such as cross-belt sorters that process 12,000 packages per hour).
At a certain cross-border logistics hub, the M1-Mini is linked with the visual recognition system through the I2C interface, achieving synchronous operation of "RFID tag reading + goods image capture", reducing the sorting error rate from 0.3% to 0.02% and increasing the daily processing volume by 40%.
V. Industrial-grade Reliability: The "Hardcore Warrior" Conquering Extreme Environments
Logistics scenarios often encounter challenges such as high temperatures, humidity, and vibration. The M1-Mini, with its IP67 protection rating and wide operating temperature range from -20℃ to +70℃, easily handles these issues
In the raw material warehouse of the steel plant, the equipment has been operating continuously for two years without failure in a high-temperature environment of 80℃.
In the seafood cold chain warehouse, a low temperature of -25℃ does not affect the sensitivity of its RFID reading.
In the automated stereoscopic warehouse with frequent vibration, after the equipment is fixed with M3 screws, the vibration test passes the ISO 16750-3 standard.
Vi. Sieans' Customized Services: The "Evolutionary Journey" from Standard to Exclusive
As the developer of ScanMaster M1-Mini, Sieans offers a dual service of "modularization + customization"
Standard version: Out of the box, compatible with 90% of logistics scenarios;
Enterprise customized version: The antenna gain, communication protocol and even the shell material (such as explosion-proof and antibacterial coatings) can be adjusted according to customer requirements.
For instance, the M1-Mini customized for a certain pharmaceutical enterprise has added an ultraviolet disinfection function, which can automatically sterilize after each label reading, meeting the GMP aseptic production requirements. The version designed for air logistics has passed the DO-160G avionics standard and can work stably in the aircraft cargo hold.
The launch of ScanMaster M1-Mini marks a paradigm shift in logistics equipment from "functional integration" to "spatial integration". By integrating RFID technology into a coin-sized device, Sieans not only addressed the pain point of low warehouse space utilization but also paved the way for the popularization of intelligent logistics with its ultra-low power consumption, high reliability and open ecosystem.
In the future, with the in-depth application of 5G and AIoT technologies, M1-Mini will further integrate edge computing capabilities, becoming an "intelligent node" connecting the physical world and the digital world, and helping the global logistics industry move towards a new era of greater efficiency and sustainability.
