Abstract
A system for testing inlays employing a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) protocol that are carried on a web, and for removing from the web inlays that are not functioning within defined parameters, includes an energizing device that energizes the inlays, a plurality of singulation readers disposed downstream of the energizing device that simultaneously interrogate a plurality of pre-energized inlays during a read operation, each singulation reader interrogating a single inlay during the read operation and determining whether or not each interrogated inlay is functioning within the defined parameters, and an automatic reject apparatus disposed downstream of the singulation readers that removes from the web any malfunctioning inlay, based at least in part on a position of the singulation reader interrogating the malfunctioning inlay with respect to a reject gate of the automatic reject apparatus.
