This is what makes 360° Deactivation unique

Nedap's 360° Deactivation involves the best deactivator on the market: our Smart Deactivator. Used in both self-checkout and traditional checkouts, the Smart Deactivator has a special detection mode. This means it only sends out one strong burst when it detects live RF labels, saving energy consumption.

Deactivation from every angle With 360° Deactivation, labels can be deactivated regardless of how a product is presented at checkout. Employees and shoppers do not need to think about label orientation or product handling. Traditional deactivation technologies are more sensitive to label position, which can result in missed deactivations and unnecessary alarms. By removing these restrictions, 360° Deactivation supports a faster and more intuitive checkout process.

Larger deactivation field 360° Deactivation features a deactivation field that is up to 40% larger than many conventional alternatives. This allows labels to be deactivated quickly and reliably, even when they are not positioned close to the scanner. The larger field supports a smooth checkout process and helps create a more convenient experience for both employees and shoppers.

Only bursts on label detection 360° Deactivation uses intelligent detection technology that activates only when a live RF label is detected. The system generates a targeted deactivation burst based on the specific characteristics of the label, ensuring accurate performance. This approach combines reliable deactivation with lower energy consumption and reduced unnecessary RF exposure.

Exceptional performance

360° Deactivation involves the best deactivator on the market: our Smart Deactivator. Used in both self-checkout and traditional checkouts, the Smart Deactivator has a special detection mode. This means it sends only one strong burst when it detects live RF-labels, reducing energy consumption.

Easy to use

Thanks to its special detect mode, the Smart Deactivator detects labels in any position. Therefore, shoppers or staff will have complete confidence in deactivating their products, regardless of how they handle or move the scanner. The Smart Deactivator is connected to our Data Analytics platform, supports wireless synchronization, and offers audio and visual capabilities, making it not only easy to use but also to manage.

Most sustainable choice

The detection mode of our Smart Deactivator not only reduces power consumption and electromagnetic emissions but also enables a much more powerful deactivation burst, thereby providing a larger deactivation range. Its low energy consumption also makes it the most sustainable choice for label deactivation.

Plug and play installation

Nowadays, having SCO zones is a must for retailers. That’s why 360° Deactivation is a plug-and-play solution for any SCO system a retailer has.360° Deactivation comes standard with: rapid hard tag recognition, easy integration with all common SCO systems, audio and visual indicators, and data and analytics on system performance. 360° Deactivation works with technology from Zebra, Datalogic, Toshiba, NCR, Diebold Nixdorf, and Pan Oston.

Designed for self-checkout

Retailers are increasingly choosing self-checkout. These checkouts save labor costs and improve the customer experience, but they also add extra complexity to loss prevention. Hard tags are hard for shoppers to detach, meaning they still have to stand in line to consult store staff. And common loss-prevention measures, like product weighing or random checks, are seen as customer-unfriendly. 360° Deactivation works at self-checkout stations, where the label is deactivated when a shopper scans the product.
