Position reader now has auto-learning
function

Position reader for industrial applications, has been improved to include an auto-learning function, dynamic reading performance, Ethernet connectivity and DPM decoding facilities.

The Matrix-2000T CCD reader from Datalogic for industrial applications, has been improved to include an auto-learning function, dynamic reading performance, Ethernet connectivity and DPM (direct part marking) decoding capabilities This fully integrated fixed position reader based on imaging technology, combines a LED lighting system, image capturing, decoding and communication interfaces in a single compact product to read linear, 2D, stacked and postal codes

Installing and setting-up the reader are now quicker with the auto-learning function, which eliminates the need of a PC for these activities.

Ethernet connectivity for the Matrix-2000T includes several communication channels, such as TCP/IP socket for data and image transfer, HTTP server, FTP and mail client for increased effectiveness in the fast growing number of Ethernet applications.

The reading performance of the Matrix-2000T is highly dynamic, with up to 60 reads per second at an object speed of over six meters per second.

The reader can transition smoothly from reading standard bar codes to 2D bar code symbologies.

The DPM decoding capabilities of the Matrix-2000T make it possible to read DataMatrix and Dot Matrix codes which are directly marked with laser etching, dot peening and low resolution ink jet technologies, often found in automotive and aerospace industries.

An external lighting system from Datalogic is recommended for best reading results.

In addition, state-of-the-art decoding libraries are extremely effective for use in applications with damaged and low quality bar codes.

Diagnostic software tools for the Matrix-2000T make it possible to monitor code printing quality, position and orientation, exposure quality and decoding time in real-time.

The Matrix-2XX2 DM models offer diagnostic software tools according to standards from AIM.

The Matrix-2000T offers many optical solutions to guarantee high accuracy in identifying codes with different resolutions at various distances with the best reading performance in its class.

It is suitable for a variety of applications such as production line tracking, document processing, direct part marking applications and biomedical analysis machines.
