‘Barcode Scanner’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Vitronic provides volume measuring for parcels from
Vitronic, which we summarised at the time by saying "Vitronic has supplied a range of systems for Hermes' national distribution hub in Nuneaton, Warwickshire. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Herma uses label detection sensors from Leuze from
Leuze Electronic: "Herma, a manufacturer of self-adhesive labels and label machinery, has been using sensors from Leuze Electronic to detect, identify and protect personnel in its new warehouse and logistics centre.".
In October 2009, we covered the news from Dynamic Systems
- take a look at Dynamic releases Checkmate barcode software
which says: "Dynamic Systems, a software developer specialising in barcode data collection, has introduced a low-cost software suite for small to mid-sized manufacturers. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Shortlink, Shortlink transceiver offers wireless integration,
as well as RFID handhelds speed up offline data collection from Balluff UK,
and Leuze scanners detect minimal contrasts from Leuze Electronic.
