Choosing the Right Lens Just Got Easy
This Barcode lens calculator will help you determine the correct scanner for your application based on Field of View (FOV) or Working Distance(WD). Simply select either FOV or WD, enter your specific requirements, and the calculator will identify the correct lens for your application.
Application Notes
UV Barcodes for Traceability
Before shipping to the brand assembler, a supplier of auto visors needs to verify that Data Matrix UV barcodes have been printed on each visor’s safety label. The customer turned to Banner to read invisible 2D Data Matrix barcode and send data via Ethernet IP to a PLC for traceability/error proofing.
Barcode Presence and Rotation
An iVu BCR Series barcode reader with rotation range detection reads the barcode on medical product packaging and verifies that it is correctly aligned for heat sealing.
Industrial Barcode Verification on Clear Labels
An iVu BCR with UV ring light is an ideal solution for detecting barcodes in a low contrast situation. The iVu is coupled with UV illumination for an all-in-one solution that improves contrast on clear labels so bar codes are easily detected.
Robotic Cell Industrial Barcode Inspection
It can be difficult and expensive to stop robotic operations to configure and monitor the barcode inspection process. An iVu BCR barcode reader with remote display can be mounted up to 16 m (50 feet) away from the sensor for remote monitoring and troubleshooting while the robot is in operation.
Vision Sensor to Read QR Codes
iVu Plus BCR Gen 2 with 25 mm Micro Lens replaces hand held barcode readers to collect data from dense, difficult-to-read QR codes on vehicle transmissions. A WL50S high-intensity LED spot light illuminates the target area.
Pharmaceutical Insert Verification
An iVu BCR sensor is mounted 8-12 inches above a conveyor of boxed pill bottles containing a medical information insert. The iVu BCR industrial bar code scanner reads a data matrix code on the insert to verify it matches the product on the packaging line. When a box containing an incorrect insert or no insert at all moves past the iVu BCR inspection area, the iVu detects this fail condition and sends an output alarm to the production line.
High-Speed 2D Barcode Inspection
Banner’s iVu BCR with remote display offers an easy to use solution for reading barcodes to ensure correct labels have been applied. The iVu BCR models provide both a fine mode, for reading smaller barcodes that require full resolution, and coarse mode, for applications where speed is critical.
Packaging Frozen Dinners on a Cartoner
WLS28 Work Light Strips: Bright, long-lasting LED light strips provide optimal visibility inside the cartoner for operator access and easily fit on the machine without obscuring access Safety Hinge Switches: Stainless steel, load-bearing safety hinge switches support the cartoner’s machine door and will shut down the machine if the doors are opened, and minimize the risk of intentional defeat
