Image is everything

Image-based ID readers expand in all industries and in 1D/2D code reading applications.

The first benefit of the DataMan® image based reader is an unprecedented reliability in code reading of DPM (direct part marks) or labels. No matter its position, size, quality or speed, the code will be read.

See some examples below and

For the food industry


Het Kaasmerk b.v. in the Netherlands uses the DataMan to read the codes marked on individual blocks of cheese. The cheese is marked with a 2D code early in the production process and these codes need to remain readable right until the end. The only ID reader capable of meeting the challenge of the increasingly degraded codes in the tough industrial environment was the DataMan 7500.

For document handling


		Image-based ID readers are ideal for tracking each document during handling or sorting processes. Especially with the increased use of 2D data matrix codes or postal IMB/4 state codes that require image based readers. By using the patented IDQuick™ decoding algorithm, DataMan readers can easily read the 1D and 2D codes used in document sortation and handling applications on fast moving lines. See it for yourself, submit your application.

For the automotive industry


Each automotive component produced at Borg Warner is 100% traceable with data matrix codes marked on each piece. Batch numbers, production dates and testing status are also available through this code. Read more on this story and/or submit your application

For the medical device industry


		ID readers save assembly time and improve tracking of surgical instruments. Our staff commented that it was faster and easier to get a good scan with this ID reader. We now have 250 DataMan 7500 scanners out in the field. The average hospital has five of these scanners and the largest has 30.

For the electronics industry


Reading 1mm by 1mm codes on 40,000 PCBs per day. The fact that we have improved our code reading times and increased our success rate to 99,997% saves us valuable time and boosts our production efficiency. We hope to implement these vision solutions elsewhere for other applications. TK Tan, Staff Engineer at Sony, Penang Read more on this story and/or submit your application
