ABR Series Imager-Based Barcode Readers
The ABR Series barcode readers reliably read the most difficult 1D and 2D barcodes to solve tough traceability applications in industrial environments. Watch this video to learn about the advanced features and capabilities offered by these powerful barcode readers.
ABR 3000 Series
The ultracompact ABR 3000 is a feature-rich barcode reader that solves a wide range of barcode reading applications and can be deployed in very small spaces. Choose from models with a WVGA (752 x 480 pixels) imager or a 1.2 MP (1280 x 960 pixels) imager. It features built-in LED lighting, and is available with Ethernet or USB communication capabilities.
ABR 7000 Series
The compact ABR 7000 is capable of solving any barcode reading application. It has a 1.3 MP (1280 x 1024 pixels) imager, fast processing time, superior integrated lighting, and Ethernet connectivity. Multiple lens options, including a liquid lens autofocus, are available. This versatile barcode reader is ideal for use in long-range, direct part marking (DPM), high-speed, and other challenging applications.
Superior Decoding of Challenging Barcodes
ABR Series barcode readers utilize advanced algorithms to decode a full library of 1D and 2D barcodes, including DPM, damaged, distorted, and overprinted codes. Models in a range of resolutions are available to reliably read small, complex, and challenging barcodes. Image filters are available to improve the readability of low-quality codes.
Intuitive Software with Advanced Capabilities
Connect, configure, and monitor multiple ABR Series barcode readers using Barcode Manager. This free and easy-to-use software features flowchart programming and a wide range of configuration options, including a one-step process for automatic setup and an advanced option that provides full access to change and configure device settings.
Integrated Lighting for Optimal Contrast
Standard integrated LED illuminators provides bright uniform light to illuminate barcodes. The ABR 7000 is available with multicolored LEDs for bright-field and dark-field illumination, ideal for use in low-contrast and direct part marking (DPM) applications.
Easy Installation and Setup for Rapid Deployment
The all-in-one design of ABR Series barcode readers combines imager, lens, and LED lighting in one, easy-to-deploy device. The ultracompact ABR 3000 fits easily in the smallest spaces and the compact ABR 7000 has a rotating connector for straight or right-angle installations. Device setup is easy using Barcode Manager software or the on-board Smart Teach interface.
Versatile Lens Options to Solve More Applications
The ABR 3000 is available in models with a WVGA imager and a 9 mm manual focus lens or a 1.2 MP imager and a 6 mm manual focus lens with a standard or polarized window. The ABR 7000 features a 1.3 MP imager and is available with a 6 mm, 9 mm, 12 mm, or 16 mm manual focus lens or a 9 mm software adjustable liquid lens autofocus. The autofocus lens option makes it easy to adapt to changes in read distance, simplifying setup and product changeover.
The ABR 7000 is able to read multiple 1D and 2D barcodes over a large area in a single inspection, regardless of label position or orientation. It has a wide field of view, a high-resolution imager, and is available with an autofocus lens that adapts to changes in box size during line change over. Learn more about this application.
