Upgrade your livestock data capture with equipment that’s built to last and built to make your job easier.

Beyond simple scanning, today’s EID readers play a crucial role in modern livestock data management. As farms move toward more integrated systems — combining weighing, drafting, health recording and compliance reporting — a reliable EID reader becomes the backbone of accurate, real-time information. That’s why every reader in this range is chosen for speed, durability and compatibility, ensuring it performs flawlessly whether you’re working crush‑side with cattle or race‑side with sheep.

Our handheld stick readers are ideal for mobile work, allowing you to scan animals quickly during routine handling, field checks or treatment sessions. They’re lightweight, ergonomic and designed to withstand mud, rain and daily knocks. For higher-throughput systems, our panel readers offer hands-free scanning, making them perfect for automated drafting, weighing crates, sheep handlers and cattle crushes. They capture every tag as animals move past, reducing labour and eliminating missed reads.

Each reader integrates smoothly with weighing indicators, software platforms and cloud-based farm management tools, helping you build a complete digital record of your herd or flock. Whether you’re preparing for upcoming cattle EID requirements or improving the efficiency of your sheep operation, these readers give you the accuracy and reliability you need to stay ahead.
