Cosmetics-shop security Makeup Markets Anti-thief System Project

Makeup Markets Anti-thief System Project



A. Introduction of anti-thief system

The technical principles of the EM anti-thief system:



1. EM anti-thief system

The basic principle is to detect if the objects have the EM strips by the transformations of the alternating magnetic field to prevent thefts. The electromagnetic identify technology is chief technology.

The electromagnetic technique detects by the alternating magnetic field produced by the low frequency from 10Hz to the 20 KHz of the detecting antennae (transmitting antenna & receiving antenna). It detects the EM strips of the objects. The strips are PoMo alloy soft strips with cragged hysteresis loop . The polarities of the strips will be magnetized periodically over and over again when they were inside the alternating magnetic field of the transmitting antenna. The magnetic flux density B of the strips changes jumpily near the place where the external magnetic intensity H spans 0 (non-linear characteristic), then the harmonic wave would be produced whose frequency is the baseband of the transmitting antenna, and the receiving antenna will receive and process the wave and produce the alarm signal.

The system has many obvious advantages. First of all, it is the only one system to detect the objects that have metals or foils inside, the market could largely expand the protecting scope with the system. Secondly, the material cost ( strips ) is lower than RF soft label, the system will save a lot of money in a long time for makeup markets.

2. Anti-thief principles of RF system:

The working principles of RF system: the transmitting and receiving antennae uninterruptedly transmit and receive electromagnetic waves between 7.4~8.8 MHz, the interferences with 8.2 MHz center frequency caused by labels will cause the alarm.

To help you understand the strongpoints and defects of our system clearly and help you make a wise decision, we will compare EM system with RF system by a form:

The working principle flow of the library alarm system-

1. Set the EM strips inside the goods.

2. Set the detectors at the exit channels.

3. Degauss the goods by the special deactivator after the normal checking.

4. The goods without normal checking (that have the strips inside) will make the door detectors alarm and stop the customers.



The function of the EM alarm system

1. Preventing thefts. The system changed the old ways that the workers have to gaze at the customers or the workers have to take good care of the books in case that someone would steal them. The system makes each of the books protects themselves and solves the stealing problem totally. That would reduce the loss of bookstores.

2. Simplify management. The system could effectively prevent inner thieves, ease contradictions between managers and staff, exclude the staff's psychological barriers and let them work absorbedly and increase working efficiency. Also the system could reduce employees and optimize employees at the original basics to save operating costs and improve service level.

3. Alarm. The system could stop the customers stealing with a tough and polite way. It could avoid the disputes between persons and it could protect the profit of the bookstores, meanwhile respecting the human rights. The system could warn and stop the thieves psychologically.

4. Improve the borrowing atmosphere. Many people hate the old gazing way. The system could create a better atmosphere that customers could select books freely, and it could improve the relationship between the merchants and the customers which makes the circumstance more comfortable and help the merchants to attract more customers

The bookstores anti-thief system project

Requirement analysis

Because the scientific technology has been developed continually, the open-shelf selling way in bookstores shows the tremendous progress in adapting the age development. It can offer readers free selection and can increase sales rate and working efficiency. But at the same time open-shelf selling still has its own defects - books lost, pages ripped that become the outstanding problems in the work. It will be a worth discussing question for every book manager to consider the characteristics of open-shelf selling and make full use of its advantages and at the same time reduce its inconveniences by some supplementary measures. As a direct and effective anti-thief measure the bookstores EM alarm system has obtained the unanimous approval around most of book-markets and small & medium-sized bookstores in practice.



Working steps of the bookstores EM alarm system:

1. Put the special anti-thief material - EM strips inside the books;

2. Set the detecting antennae at the passageways;

3. The books with normal checking out will be degaussed by special equipments or will be delivered beside the detecting antennae to finish the selling.

4. When the books without normal checking out (those have strips inside) are passing the exits then detecting antennae will find them and alarm with sound and light to inform the customers to check again.



The technical principles of the EM alarm system

The basic principle is to detect if the objects have the EM strips by the transformations of the alternating magnetic field to prevent thefts. The electromagnetic identify technology is chief technology.

The electromagnetic technique detects by the alternating magnetic field produced by the low frequency from 10Hz to the 20 KHz of the detecting antennae (transmitting antenna & receiving antenna).

5. Beautify the circumstance. The system is a high-tech and pretty product, it could beautify the circumstance when protecting the books. The system is a new trend for the bookstores.



The bookstore anti-thief system project:

A. Separate the persons and goods:



I. Set the detectors at the cashiers;

I I. Set the EM strips on the commodities that need protecting;

I I I. This way let persons and commodities pass by different channels. Customers pass by the detecting channel and commodities pass by cashiers and they won't pass the detecting host directly and will be passed to the customers by the cashiers. In this way you needn't to buy deactivator. The strips will be degaussed forever and it will reduce your costs with the same anti-thief function. ( Defects: the cost of the whole equipments will be a little high relatively and the cashier location may limits the setting. Strongpoints: avoid the contradictions between merchants and customers caused by the system alarm because the books are not degaussed enough, create a more comfortable shopping atmosphere.) It will be necessary for lending bookstores to set an EM strip check equipment.



B. Protecting modes in exits:





? . Set detectors at the main exits;

? . Set deactivator on the cashier tables;

? . Set the EM strips on the commodities that need protecting;

? . If the bookstore separates the entrances and exits then they just need to set detectors at the exits. It could reduce the number of the equipments and save investing costs. (Defects: higher requirement on cashiers, if books aren't degaussed enough that may cause contradiction between workers and customers, the necessary strips are composite strips that can be magnetized or degaussed and they are more expensive than permanent strips. Strongpoints: the total costs for equipments are lower and the location will not impact the setting generally.) It will be necessary for lending bookstores to set EM deactivator/reactivator and EM strip check equipment at the return place.



Introduction of the chief anti-theft products

The anti-thief system with electromagnetic principle (recommended)

Detecting antenna : ES008 alarm system is a domestic high-grade anti-theft system at present.











Wireless Deactivator :





It is made from special materials. It doesn't need electric power. It can be used in any circumstances and it has a long life. It has a high degaussing intensity and could degauss many books at the same time.



EM strips:





According to the sort we have cobalt strips and iron strips.

According to the function we have permanent strips and composite strips.

1. Permanent strips that couldn't be magnetized or degaussed:

The magnetism of the strips exists forever and they couldn't be decoded. They are cheaper. They have high alarm efficiency and they could be hided easily. And we also have the double-sided adhesive strips that make the operation easier.

2. Composite strips that could be magnetized or degaussed.

They could be decoded but have a little higher price than permanent ones. And we also have the double adhesive strips that make the operation easier. Length: 40, 50, 60, 80, 100, 120, 160 (mm).

According to the appearance we have permanent naked strips, adhesive strips and barcode adhesive strips.



Engineering setting rules:



Spot rules:

1. The special power outlets are set at the cashier and there are earth wires.

2. There mustn't are large metals such as hobs or iron tables around the detecting doors about 1m to 1.5m. If the gates are made of stainless steel or aluminum alloy then the system should be set 50cm away from them and that depends on the situations.

3. The distance between detecting doors and host should be at least 1 meter.



Setting form rules:

1. Pre-embedded pipelines: pre-embed 25PVC pipes. Detecting doors and host use dual-core shielded wires.

2. Cut ground: the cutting is behind the shielded wires. Make sure the ground surface and the metal u-shaped groove are in the same level and guarantee the leakage lines and collapsing holes won't appear.

3. Arc metal groove: insure it's clean before sticking on the ground and then fix it and put the groove and the two detecting antennae as the " ? " shape.

4. Pedestal style: connect shielded wires to the pedestal grooves orderly and stick with adhesive tape to insure the slide won't break the connecting wires.

Remark: insure the grooves are straight as a beeline and relatively connect the step lines according to 45 degree at the corners.

security tag

Training after the setting:

Training aimed at staff:

1. Correct sticking way and attention note about the system.

2. Normal operations of the additional equipments: such as the normal use of the EM deactivator/reactivator or common queations.

3. Normal operations and attention notes of equipments.

4. Troubleshooting of common faults and simple faults.

5. Correct operation after alarm

Every individual retailer has their own concerns, their own products and their own customers. Checkpoint is uniquely positioned to understand the specific needs of the specialised retailer , because our unparalleled range of solutions and long experience working closely with our clients gives us the insight and flexibility needed to add value to your shop or business.

The retail industry is increasingly fragmented and competitive. Specialist retailers know their market and what is important to them: customer service, low overheads and product identification solutions that cut back loss from shrinkage and greatly increase the reliability of supply chain management . Let Checkpoint visit your shop for a full and individualised breakdown of the solutions that could make a difference to you: solutions that quickly pay for themselves by protecting your store and improving your stock identification systems
The key to customer service

Common problems:

Constant staff turnover leads to training challenges
Over-staffing
Shrinkage from internal theft
Bad customer service due to inefficient product control
Your staff needs to be free to attend to customers' needs, not tied up with laborious product protection duties, stock-control and slow deactivation at point of sale. Checkpoint's advanced product identification solutions means you need fewer staff, and the staff you have will be able to dedicate more time to customers.

Our product protection solutions also help to increase confidence in your staff and make sure that they understand their role in tackling the problem of shrinkage from theft in your shop. Checkpoint's total solutions offer training for staff to make them aware of the security challenges that face retailers and the logistics of product identification. Checkpoint's advanced technologies can radically cut back your labour costs and make your store look better and run more smoothly. Put labelling on the supply-side

Common Problems:

Quality and speed of labelling
Poor pricing information on products
Lack of effective in-store labelling
It is difficult to overstate the importance of branding in the competitive retail environment of today. Checkpoint's branding solutions are designed to put the power of quality merchandising into the hands of retailers, whether it be through quality apparel tagging, in-store merchandising or product labelling solutions that can make a real difference to sales in your shop.

Checkpoint's labelling solutions are a global point of reference for the apparel industry and major distributors who need a quick, economical and attractive ticketing service

"Say goodbye to safety-stock"

Common problems:

Excessive 'safety-stock'
'Stock-outs'
Bad shelf-management
Poor 'back-office' logistics
Inventory system can't keep up with turnover
Lack of information from distributors
Expiry problems and obsolete stock
Bad stock rotation

Manufacturers are increasingly aware of the need to minimise inventory and maximise product flow. Checkpoint's production line automation and warehouse management solutions are designed to speed up the manufacturing process and increase supply-chain efficiency by providing the power of product identification. Checkpoint's Stock Control solutions make sure stock responds precisely to needs in order to play an active role in the supply chain.

A busy retail operation relies on up-to-the-minute information about deliveries, stock and sales to keep turnover and replenishment in motion. These days, consumers have a lot of choice about where to buy their products and they will always choose the place that provides on-shelf availability and the newest products on the market. The two enemies of any retailer are empty shelves and overstuffed 'back rooms' and streamlining stock is only possible when you have the best product identification solutions at your fingertips. Real-time stock control and non-line of sight product ID are just two of the benefits of Checkpoint's cutting-edge technologies

The total information solution

Common problems:

Ordering systems that lead to mistakes along the supply chain
Supply chain complexity that complicates tracking
Compliance with traceability and labelling legislation
Product identification that can't keep up with the demands of the supply chain
Late or incorrect deliveries
Lack of information about what's in the warehouse
Difficulty of deliveries keeping up with high volume of sales
Bad communication between the different elements in-store supply networks
Good product identification is the key to playing an active and responsive role in the supply chain. Checkpoint are global leaders in providing solutions for manufacturers and distributors who need to keep track of products, giving their businesses speed, efficiency and the information necessary to respond to the needs of consumers.

To move goods safely and efficiently you need to know where they are at every stage of their journey, from point of origin to delivery. Checkpoint's tracking solutions have been developed to integrate technology and add value across the whole supply chain, giving you the ability to speed up deliveries, organise your transport services and gain total information about the situation of your products.
Replace guesswork with real-time information



Common Problems:

Anticipating future sales at the end of the supply-chain
Badly used production lines
Responding to seasonality
Integrating software
Inaccurate information from scanners
Improving logistics software and investing in effective product identification technology is a sensible step towards cutting back the operating costs that arise from over-staffing and shrinkage. Updating your product identification and data capture software will soon translate into tangible benefits for your company.

Optimise your ability to anticipate unexpected increases in demand from your distributors using new technologies that can give you vital information, right up to point of sale. Checkpoint offers software and logistical solutions that will give you the power to anticipate and respond to real sales information, making sure that 'stock-outs' are a thing of the past and your products stay out on the shop floor and in reach of customers.
Plan, control, implement

Common problems:

Fulfilling the different demands of various distributors
Shortfall of raw materials
Labour-intensive production lines
Reacting to events along the supply-chain
Checkpoint's logistical solutions add value to your business by giving you the power to plan and control the flow of goods and materials throughout the manufacturing process and into the hands of customers - cutting-back on unexpected phenomena, rationalising your labour force and making sure you can respond quickly to the demands of your distributors.

Supply chain forecasting and a real-time view of your production schedule optimises your logistics, while integrated product identification solutions can help to greatly improve efficiency at both ends of the supply-chain. Efficient logistics keep your stock in constant movement and streamlines the supply chain, maximising productivity and keeping shelves stocked.

Win the battle against shrinkage

Common problems:

Customers that steal
Employees that steal
Lost products along the supply-chain
Ordering mistakes
Difficulty of protecting certain products

A small minority of customers steal, but they can have a major impact on your profit margins. Not only can customer theft account for 48% of revenue loss (2003, European Theft Barometer), it also has a negative effect on your business due to 'defensive' merchandising and obtrusive 'hard tags' that can detract from the look of your products. Checkpoint's advanced security solutions are proven to cut down on customer theft by up to 60%.

Protecting large retail outlets that stock a wide-range of products provides a special challenge when fighting retail shrinkage, especially when this kind of retail environment is often the most tempting target for shoplifters. Checkpoint has been applying the latest Radio Frequency (RF) technologies to shrinkage solutions since its foundation in 1968, providing breakthroughs like the first integrated Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) tags, 3rd Generation EAS and the development of RFID technology.

Ordering mistakes can account for up to 18% of loss from shrinkage. A modern business needs an efficient ordering system that anticipates stock fluctuations, makes sure your customers find what they want and come back again when they are looking for something else.

Point your customers in the right direction

DR label

Common Problems:

Frequent promotions and special offers lead to constant changes in product information
Poor in-store merchandising and product display detracts from products and confuses customers
Products arrive without adequate information labelling.
Good retail is about providing the opportunities that stimulate your customers to make the right choices. Effective in-store merchandising is an essential step towards increasing the appeal of products and pointing your customers in the right direction.
