5 Reasons You'll Love the New MC3330R RFID Reader

The MC3330R RFID reader replaces Zebra’s MC3190-Z legacy model (ideal for retail, office, and healthcare environments) and brings a new level of comfort, speed, ease of use and accuracy to your RFID applications. Superior RFID read performance and receiver sensitivity enable lightning fast capture of even the most challenging RFID tags.

With Zebra’s signature rugged design, the MC3330R is built for maximum uptime, yet is lightweight with the right ergonomics for all-day comfort. And the large touchscreen, physical keypad and Android OS deliver an intuitive and flexible platform to meet your RFID application needs today and tomorrow.

Why do we think you’ll love the MC3330R?

1. Best-in-class RFID read performance.

When it comes to RFID performance, the MC3330R is in a class of its own. Workers can accurately and rapidly capture RFID tags in half the time as the next leading competitor — enabling more frequent inventory counts. And Zebra’s high-performance ASIC radio technology delivers a read rate that is more than 25% faster and over 40% more accurate than other devices in this class.

2. Rugged and lightweight for everyday reliability.

With the MC3330R, you get it all — an Android-based platform with all the benefits of an integrated handheld. The MC3330R is IP54 sealed, built to withstand 5 ft./1.5 m drops to concrete and has a Gorilla Glass touch panel and imager window. While rugged, the MC3330R is also one of the lightest devices in its class with a streamlined design that is built for easy one-handed ambidextrous use.

3. Common Zebra platform for faster application development.

The MC3330R shares the same EMDK and RFID SDK as other Zebra RFID handheld readers and sleds — enabling you to streamline full-fleet rollouts no matter which Zebra products you choose to deploy. Our EMDK simplifies enterprise application design for faster, more cost-effective development cycles, while our RFID SDK lets you use RFID apps developed for other Zebra devices on the MC3330R.

4. Keypad and touchscreen support for your apps.

The MC3330R supports your TE apps. The built-in keypad delivers the same experience your workers have today — no change in workflow, no training required. And when you’re ready to migrate to touch-based input, the MC3330R RFID reader’s large touchscreen combines with Zebra’s AllTouch TE to easily turn your ‘green screens’ into elegant touch-centric easy-to-use apps, boosting worker productivity to a whole new level.

5. Mobility DNA for an unmatched feature set — and value.

Zebra Mobility DNA provides powerful new features that no other competitive product can offer — features that improve productivity, simplify app management and integration. And with LifeGuard for Android (available with a Zebra OneCare contract), you can count on Zebra to provide additional years of OS support — including security patches — to extend the life of your investment and let you decide when to upgrade to a newer version of Android.

MC3330R in Retail

In today’s omnichannel retail landscape, meeting customer expectations requires having an accurate view of inventory across your entire supply chain at any given moment. If your inventory system says a pair of women’s jeans or box of diapers is available at a specific store location, those items need to be out on the sales floor.

Any inventory inaccuracy can lead to lost sales and unsatisfied customers: shoppers can’t find the items they need; associates can’t see inventory in the stock room, and orders for customer pickup or ship-from store can’t be fulfilled.

MC3330R in the Office

Managing important assets is a challenge for virtually every business. Time spent tracking down equipment can lead to expensive delays, costly man hours and even down time.

MC3330R in Healthcare

Hospitals have a large and complex inventory of assets, pharmaceuticals and supplies that must be tracked in order to ensure they’re always on hand for their patients. The MC3330R can reduce the amount of time spent counting and locating these assets and inventory.

The result?

Counts can be taken more frequently for more accurate inventory data, and staff can quickly find a specific item when needed.

The Right Solution for the Job

The MC3330R is loaded with features that bring a new level of comfort, task speed, ease of use and accuracy to your inventory, asset management and fulfillment applications.
