Microchips AustraliaRFID Microchips and Readers

Microchips Australia has a wide range of portable, hand-held readers that vary in size, read range, power supply and computer connectivity. Microchips Australia can also supply many different types of fixed antenna/decoder systems for remote monitoring. These systems vary in their antenna design (different shapes and dimensions) and decoder type (computer connectivity, ability to perform additional tasks etc) and can be powered by 240volt or by 12volt batteries that will last for at least 48 hours before recharging is needed or can be supplemented by solar panel recharging. Free software is provided with all readers with computer connectivity and antenna/decoder systems so that animal/item identification/day/date and time data can be transferred via RS232, USB or Bluetooth connectivity (depending on the reader/decoder) to a laptop or other computer in spreadsheet format that can be converted to formats such as Excel. The choice of reading system will depend on the species being researched or item being tracked/managed, the specific requirements of identification within the project, the need and application of the identification data and the type of environment for the project. Microchips Australia can also custom-build reader/antenna systems to suit individual project requirements. Other innovations include weigh scale integration, optical beam sensors, mobile network or GPRS modem transfer of data, scheduling software, use of microchip-triggered relays to control access to food, water etc. In addition to its wide range of RFID products Microchips Australia is also the exclusive distributor of Petrek 3G GPS Pet Trackers and LiveTrek Stealth and other GPS tracking equipment in Australia. Microchips Australia is also the veterinary distributor for Lone Star Retractor Systems, a great surgical retractor system with many uses in veterinary surgery.
