- scanning of codes on hot and cold products
- fixed and hand-held readers
- reliable systems with high reading rate
Technical Characteristics
Reading systems both for characters (OCR) and coded marking (barcodes). Very high reading rates when utilising the fault redundancy offered by robust code types.
Economical and technical benefits
Implementation of fully automatic marking and reading of product identity at any stage of production provides more secure traceability of products. High reading rates allow substantial savings due to the robust nature and high durability of this type of marking/reading.
Technical Design
OCR reading systems with industrial PC and standard CCD cameras. Barcode systems are realised with laser- based surface scanning systems. Robust camera casings with dust filters and air conditioning. Standardised interfaces enable communication with plant computer equipment.
Options
- Special lighting of product (IR lighting, etc.)
- Camera housing (air conditioning, etc.)
- Mounting material (brackets, video amplifier, etc.)
