I am pretty sure I know what it is but I can't think of an appropriate term for it. " Auf Wunsch integrieren wir Ihnen Ihre Warenentsicherungs-Systeme und fertigen die Kassentheken.
It is the antitheft tag removal system, but I don't think this is the right expression. Has anyone got a better idea????

EAS deactivation system
No personal knowledge, but I had nothing better to do and did a little research ;-)
EAS is the proper name for anti-theft system. It stands for Electronic Article Survelliance.
How this is removed depends on the merchandise and the devices used.
For clothes and such "hard tags" are used. These are removed with a "detacher".
For books CDs ect. various types of labels are used. These are deactivated at the register with a "detuner"
I had trouble finding the correct term that would work for the removal system of both, but then I found it:

Three types of EAS systems dominate the retail industry. In each case, an EAS tag or label is attached to an item. The tag is then deactivated, or taken from an active state where it will alarm an EAS system to an inactive state where it will not flag the alarm. If the tag is a hard, reusable tag, a detacher is used to remove it when a customer purchases the item it's attached to. If it's a disposable, paper tag, it can be deactivated by swiping it over a pad or with a handheld scanner that "tells" the tag it's been authorized to leave the store. If the item has not been deactivated or detached by the clerk, when it is carried through the gates, an alarm will sound.
It looks like the detectors cost about $1000-$2000. Labels are cheap, 2000 for about $100. The labels are deactivated using a "detuner" which costs about $300.
Detacher, Lanyards and Pins
Detacher
The attractive round chrome detacher allows for quick and easy removal of hard tags from merchandise. Its small size fits easily on even the busiest check-out counter.
Lanyards
Used with hard tags, lanyards protect merchandise which otherwise could not be protected. Some examples are: tennis rackets, stereo equipment, hardware items, and sporting goods.
Pins
These sturdy pins fasten hard tags to merchandise.

Sorry, the label section of the last site and the URL was cut off, so here it is:
Labels
We offer a variety of labels in the following sizes:
2\" x 2\" (50 x 50 cm)
1.5\" x 1.5\" (40 x 40 cm)
1.25\" x 1.5\" (33 x 40 cm)
These labels are available in several different frequencies including 8.2 MHz and 9.5 MHz. Their use depends upon the application.
Different printing options are also available.
Deactivators
Our deactivators are designed to deactivate all 8.2 MHz disposable labels. The operator does not have to find or locate the disposable label on the item in order for it to be deactivated. An audible tone alerts the operator of labels that will not deactivate. The deactivation unit is placed next to the point-of-sale equipment for quick and easy checkout.

EAS tag/label, security tag/label or ...
your anti-theft tag/label all seem to be common.
The problem is whether to use "deactivation" or "removal", as the concepts obviously differ. If you know the name of the company, maybe there's more information about the exact nature of the system on their website.
What is an EAS Label?
Definition: An EAS device that is attached and/or adhered to assets or merchandise which will alarm when passed through an EAS detection device in an active state. Multiple types of EAS labels exist; the three most common types are AM (Acousto-Magnetic), EM (electro-magnetic), and RF (Radio-Frequency). The three different types work only within their respective detection units.
Also Known As: EAS Tag
General Use: Electronic Article Survelliance (EAS)

Not necessarily related – but mind-boggling:

Tesco has tested new anti-theft technology which photographs customers as soon as they take an item off the shelf.
The system uses a microchip attached to products which allow staff to monitor its exact location in the store.
Tesco says the trial, which began at a store in Cambridge in January and ended last month, was mainly designed to ensure shelves were fully stocked.
It involved Gillette Mach 3 razor refills, which cost £6.97 each and are thought to be prone to shoplifting.
Behind each shelf unit is a device called a "reader" with a radio frequency. When a product is taken off the shelf and out of the reader's range it alerts a computer at the back of the store.
The computer sends an instant message to a CCTV camera to take a picture of the customer who picked up the item.
When the customer pays for the product at the check-out the alert is cancelled but if not the store has an image to pass on to police

Next time I\'m in Tescos, I think I\'ll keep on taking a tin of baked bins off the shelf and putting it back again.
