Illegible bar codes no longer a problem

Damaged and partially covered bar codes are a serious problem and can cause delay in automated processes. To help solve the problem, SICK UK is pleased to present the CLV620 series, a new generation of bar code scanners with superb reading and network performance. In addition, the innovative SMART620 bar code identification software detects poorly readable bar codes rapidly and reliably.

Developed in conjunction with customers in a variety of industries, the CLV620 product family has a scanning frequency of up to 1,200Hz, allowing increased process speeds and integrated Ethernet capability to allow networked operation without the need for additional gateways. The installation and commissioning time that this saves is considerable. A Connection Assistant also helps to provide rapid network access. Sort and filter functions ensure that the data is transmitted to the controller in the desired format and the optional fieldbus gateways CMF400 and CDF600 provide easy connection to PROFIBUS and DeviceNet networks.
