EID Antennae

Perhaps this is the most under rated part of an EID system! Orientation of the device is all important when being presented to the antenna. If a device is running parallel to the antenna then in most cases it will need to be closer to achieve a read. For that basic reason we always advise people to make sure they are being supplied with either a twin antenna or a portal antenna. In this way you stand the best chance of reading 100%. There are developments underway to switch orientation from one antenna to the other making it virtually impossible for an animal not to be read! Plate antennae can either be single or double. Loop antennae normally bridge over the top of the race and portal antennae the animals run through.

Points to consider when purchasing Antennae

Generally if you are being offered a single antenna to read sheep on a run-through basis you run the risk of missing reads. If the animal enters a crate and has to stand there until it is read then that is a different matter. The orientation of the device to the reader is very important. If you are being offered twin antennae or a portal antenna then you stand the best chance of getting a 100% read.
