Bar and 2D code readers
from top manufacturers
Bar and 2D code readers enable identification of goods and materials in many areas of production and logistics. Use them for identification in the automation process and simultaneously ensure the traceability of your production and packaging process of each product.
Detect barcodes and 2D codes reliably
Barcode (1D) and 2D code readers include Barcode Scanners and Barcode Imagers. The former are the best for applications that require high speed reading of appropriately oriented ladder or picket-fence barcodes and/or a stacked symbol, while the latter read both, barcodes and 2D codes omnidirectionally.
We offer a wide variety of technologies for reading these codes e.g.: mobile hand-held code readers, models with wireless transmission, combi devices and highly accurate stationary code readers from world’s leading companies:
Provide automatic identification with different code readers
Automatic identification is essential for continuous and gapless product traceability. Code readers read printed codes, decode the data within the code and send the data to a computer.
The cost-effectiveness of the code readers is inevitable as they require little revenue for installation. Due to simple programming, they are accessible to implement, making the staff’s training easy. Additionally, encoding technology reduces the valuable time taken for the manual entering of data.
One-dimensional (1D or linear or “barcode”) and two-dimensional (2D) codes are used effectively in a variety of automatic identification applications, and in some cases are scanned using different types of technology. The difference between 1D and 2D barcode scanning relies on the layout and amount of data that can be stored in each:
Reduce costs of data decoding and item tracking
Despite the difference between barcode and 2D code scanning, both types are useful, low-cost methods of decoding data and tracking items. The kind of barcode (or combination of barcodes) you select will depend on the specific requirements of your application, including the type and amount of data you need to encode, the size of the asset/item, and how and where the code will be scanned.
