Revenue Stream from memory keys

Industrial machinery

Our products can be interfaced with Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) using our range of RS232 peripherals. Our new product range, RUGGEDrive will interface directly with Single Board Computers (SBC) using either USB or SD interface.

If your machinery needs to operate in harsh conditions, we also offer IP rated receptacles (IP65 and IP67) allowing the reader to be exposed to tough conditions and still operate.

Moulding the future

Hunter, world leaders in matchplate moulding and mould handling machinery sold to the foundry industry, integrated Datakey Electronics Keytroller® IIs and LCK 1000 memory keys into their XL series to improve general access control over their existing password system. Datakey products offered a solution that met their objectives:

Improvement of general access control over current password system
Better rights distribution system so only trained operators could access certain functions
Fully engineered system to reduce R&D costs and time-to-market
Long-term support to avoid expensive re-design and implementation costs

Feed Management System

Using the SFK1Mb Key has given Digi-Star an affordable and rugged off-the-shelf data transport device for farmers. Animal feed can be mixed and weighed using equipment programmed by a ‘recipe’ on the key. The same memory key also stores information about the exact amounts dispensed.
