Abstract
A feeding system () for feeding disc-shaped objects such as sample cups () to an analyzer. The system () includes as infeed trade () angled downward from horizontal and the outfeed track () angled downward, plus a reject chute. The disc feeding system () uses two RFID readers/writers, one () a standalone desktop and a second () proximate the sample bay of the analyzer for more comprehensive track-and-trace capability. The information read from the cup () tag as it is scanned is also stored with the resultant spectra so that predictive processing is applied properly and without error. For post scan (after the sample scan is completed) the scan information itself may be written directly to the sample cup RFID tag including, reflection/transmission, characteristics, constituent results etc.
