Benefits
• Industry leading reading performance for Data Matrix codes,
also for hard-to-read DPMs.
• Rugged design, for production environment.
• Supports multiple communication protocols: RS232 / USB or
Bluetooth.
• Can read barcodes, data matrix codes, and other symbols.
• Can be used as a replacement device for existing barcode
readers.
■
Application
The hand-held reader systems are suitable for optical identifica-
tion of objects using 1D or 2D codes in the production, logistics,
quality control, and maintenance and servicing fields. Applica-
tion examples:
• Automotive industry
- Markings on various drive components (cylinder heads,
cylinder blocks, elbow joints, etc.)
- Laser markings on various drive components (cam shafts,
crankshafts, pistons, piston rods, gearbox components,
etc.)
- Laser markings on electronic components,
PCBs or enclosures
• Mechanical engineering
- Markings on different types of component
• Tobacco industry
- Printed or laser markings on boxes
• Food industry
- Printed or laser markings on cartons
- Laser markings on production machines
■
Design
All handheld readers are equipped with a handle. The handles
are equally suitable for right-handed or left-handed persons. The
read process is triggered by a switch on the handle. The handle
can be removed. On cabled connections via RS232 or USB,
data and power are transmitted direct via the shared cable.
