The MS Tag Torbogen UHF ear tag is a durable, high-quality, electronic male ear tag for pigs, cattle and sheep. With the RFID electronic identification system, animals can be recognised automatically and animal information will automatically be collected and recorded.

For orders and personalised printing and programming options, please contact us directly.

The ear tags can be scanned with a portable or fixed UHF ear tag reader.

• A code is stored in the transponder, which allows the animal to be recognised. The transponder only activates when the ear tag reader sends out an electromagnetic signal. This prevents the animal from noticing the chip itself. The signal activates the chip and the animal’s code is sent to the scanner, which identifies the animal and determines whether or not the information can be processed automatically
• UHF stands for Ultra High Frequency and refers to the extremely high amplitude of the radio waves. This high frequency allows the transfer of information to occur much more quickly than at lower frequencies such as those used in FDX and HDX technology. Furthermore, the scanning distance is much greater, which gives UHF ear tags a broader range of application. A drawback is that UHF technology is more sensitive to obstacles such as metals and fluids, which can disrupt contact between the transponder and the reader
