Read 1D, 2D and DPM codes with ease

The handheld barcode reader DataMan 8072DL from Cognex is packed with powerful lighting options, robust grading algorithms, a high-speed processing engine, and a high-resolution camera to grade the quality of direct part mark (DPM) codes. Combined with simple software, this barcode reader delivers detailed, repeatable results.

The DataMan 8072DL reads 1-D, 2-D as well as tough DPM codes that are laser or needle engraved on flat, highly reflective surfaces. Therefore, it is ideal for the most demanding industrial environments, especially in the automotive, pharmaceutical and electronics industries.

Unlock powerful reading performance

DataMan 8072DL handheld barcode readers are optimized with powerful patented Cognex algorithms for decoding machine codes, due to which they bring the best performance in their class:

• 1DMax with HOTBARS technology is an algorithm that enables you to read damaged or distorted 1-D codes
• 2DMax with PowerGrid technologys is a breakthrough 2-D decoding algorithm, designed to read 2-D codes with significant damage to or complete elimination of a code’s finder pattern, clocking pattern, or quiet zone.

Start using it immediately

With the DataMan 8072DL handheld barcode reader, no configuration or adjustments are necessary. You can start using it immediately – just aim at the code and read it. Codes can be read from a distance without angling the code or part.

With two built-in polarized LEDs, it enables the reading of codes on flat, highly reflective surfaces. Additional non-polarized LEDs illuminate the surface when reading codes on labels. For a quick code reading, the reader also has two built-in green LEDs for easier code targeting. With a high-resolution sensor and a working reading distance of 200 mm, it is also great for reading large DPM codes.

Prepare your process for the future

An additional advantage of this reader is its modularity, which makes it easy to upgrade or redesign the existing readers. An important advantage is also the ability to change the lens and lighting.

Field-interchangeable communication modules easily integrate with factory networks, allowing each reader to be configured to meet specific communication needs. The reader allows you to change the communication module to switch between corded RS-232, USB, and Ethernet options and cordless Bluetooth option.
