Why simple barcode reading just needs
good readers
When reading bar-codes with a set alignment, same positioning, and at a fixed reproducible distance, if the space available for mounting is tight, Sick's CLP 100 CCD scanner is the device of choice
Standard applications exist where a bar-code with a set alignment, same positioning, and at a fixed reproducible distance from the reading device, require identification If, however, the space available for mounting on the plant is as tight as the budget of the user, Sick's CLP 100 CCD scanner is the device of choice

The CLP provides all the performance features needed for simple identification tasks in OEM applications.
The reading device can be integrated into almost every mounting situation thanks to its extremely small size and choice of lateral or front light exit.
With a reading rate of 500 Hz even rapidly moving objects can be reliably identified.
As the device offers a resolution of 0.125 mm, this is also true for codes with small bar widths.
The optimal reading distance is 35 mm.
CLP 100 parameters can be set either using Windows-supported set-up software or with appropriate host commands.
In operation, the integrated decoder is able to evaluate all common bar-codes and to transfer data to a control computer via its RS 232 interface.
Thus simple tasks do not require an 'over-engineered' solution.
Just a highly competent bar-code reader - the CLP 100.
