In 2006, Pet Travel announced a partnership with Datamars, a global leader in high-performance radio-frequency identification (RFID) solutions in the pet and livestock industry. Datamars is a private company, headquartered in Lamone, Switzerland employing more than 1,800 people with offices in more than 100 countries, including Europe, Asia, and the United States. PetLink.net is Datamar’s interface with pet and animal owners offering a comprehensive registration database for their microchips as well as all sorts of information on pet identification.
Today, that relationship continues with Datamars marketing the Microfindr™ Slim pet microchip, the slimmest chip on the market – small as a thin grain of rice and weighing a fraction of standard glass microchips. This 15-digit microchip operates at 134.2 kHz, meeting the ISO Standards 11785, so your pet can be identified anywhere in the world, quickly and easily. This is why the Microfindr™ Slim pet microchip has been sold to many thousands of pet owners, veterinarians and government agencies without one complaint of malfunction.
Dependability such as what Datamars provides with their products is the reason why we have partnered with the manufacturer of such a high-quality product.
Additionally, Datamars is at the forefront of developing new devices for RFID including its line of microchip scanners:
These universal scanners will read a multitude of different microchips quickly and reliably. Their size and abilities will serve all professionals and pet owners as well.
The Compact Max is the lightest scanner available – a workhorse for individuals as well as veterinarians and government agencies. The scanner is also exceptionally versatile, being able to read FDX-B (ISO), FDX-A/FECAVA, Trovan and Avid encrypted microchips. Its water-resistant housing also makes it the ideal scanner to use in any condition. The Compact Max scanner has great ergonomics, and a very intuitive icon based, graphic interface which makes it the easiest reader to use on the market.
The Omni Max scanner is able to read the most common types of microchips: FDX-B (ISO), FDX-A/FECAVA, Trovan, and the Avid encrypted chips. From puppies and kittens to seniors, from pocket pets to horses, indoors and outdoors – the Omni Max delivers the identification you need.
The scanner has an innovative antenna that runs along the full perimeter of the reader, greatly increasing the read field for fast and easy scanning. This omni-directional read field improves the read distance and time – which are critical to making an identification. With the Omni Max, Datamars delivers the most modern available technology to ensure the fastest possible microchip ID with every read. Connect Omni Max to your computer via USB. The keyboard wedge function allows microchip IDs to be transmitted directly to your computer as if typed by a keyboard, eliminating the possibility of transcription errors.
The ISO Max universal scanner is programmed with DSP technology (Digital Signal Processing), which guarantees improved reading distance and an outstanding reading robustness against interfering signals, such as television, computer, etc. This scanner reads most kinds of microchips available on the market: it reads ISO tags FDX-B and HDX, is backwards compatible with microchip types currently available worldwide, FDX-A/FECAVA, Avid encrypted and Trovan. The ISO MAX V is the optimal reader to be placed at entry points, customs, airports and ports as well as for professional use in veterinary practices, clinics and animal shelters. It is also ideal for scanning larger animals like horses.
The ISO Max scanner stores up to 2000 codes, dates and times of scanning in memory and Bluetooth options provide the ability to transfer this information wirelessly to a computer.
Datamars and PetLink are highly respected in their industry which is why our partnership will continue into the future. If you have any questions as to microchipping your pet, you can send them to info@pettravel.com and we will respond promptly.
