Flexible bar code scanner designed to adapt
Thanks to the Adaptascan's autofocus capability and WindowsT-based configuration software, changes in focus, scan pattern, label format and communication requirements can be made on-line.
"AccuVision decoders include a full complement of barcode decode capabilities", Ross said.
"It's easy to select the type and quantity of codes for an application or to add or remove code types at any time".
"The new decoders can simultaneously decode any combination of linear, two-dimensional, domestic and international postal codes".
"Efficient processing enables AccuVision decoders to process multiple codes in a matrix (like those seen in a case of items) in any direction, and at high speeds".
Installation is simple and quick because the camera and illumination are firmly and permanently aligned, and packaged in industrial housings.
To reduce installation costs, Accu-Sort has placed the digital zoom in the camera, not the decoder.
To trim maintenance costs, the company created a filterless design, mirror blower option, enhanced statistics for faster problem diagnosis and the ability to save parameters.
Advanced software features include side-to-side (omniplanar) detection, dimensioning to 0.5in and quadrant scanning.
Network connectivity has also been augmented with built-in Ethernet, serial and modem connections to help integrate the equipment seamlessly into any facility.
