The Blade Series represents a new generation of compact industrial 1D readers designed for lean integration, simple installation and reduced maintenance. It is an evolution of the best-selling DS2X00 Series and brings imaging technology to this classic reader. With moving parts with a solid-state core, the Blade Series provides unsurpassed reliability and Return On Investment. Moreover, Blade is fully backward compatible with the existing DS2X00 installations, providing lower Total Cost of Ownership. Wherever 1D barcodes are in use – OEM, Factory and Warehouse Automation – Blade handles every application with ease with just two different models. The Blade Series brings the cutting edge to your business.
The Blade Series is a paradigm shift in 1D decoding, utilizing an integrated powerful imaging processor. High read rates are achievable, even when challenges associated with damaged, discolored, low-quality, or worn-out labels are par for the course. Blade does away with traditional scanning technology and instead uses a 1920 x 128 pixel camera sensor with full digital image decoding and a groundbreaking lighting system. Digital imaging also allows for simultaneous Raster and Linear image acquisition and covers a larger number of applications with a single camera. The net result is improved reliability and faster reading performance, and a significant enhancement to productivity by overcoming traditional reading obstacles.
In a world where traceability is paramount, fast and efficient installations are crucial. Blade simplifies setup and management through the user-friendly DL.Code configuration software as used in the Matrix series, offering businesses unparalleled ease of use without the worry of production stoppages. Replacing a reader is accelerated as configuration files can be loaded over the network or via a microSD card. The use of solid state imaging technology guarantees a longer product lifetime in any case as there no risk of mechanical fatigue associated with moving parts. Finally, the benefits of Datalogic WebMonitor and WebSentinal services are available to monitor and protect critical business applications. The Blade Series is your gateway to a low cost of ownership without compromising on traceability.
Retaining the compact form factor of legacy DS2X00 models, Blade ensures a swift and uncomplicated upgrade process. Although the DS2X00 cameras are still widely used, Blade offers a seamless transition to image-based readers as it is backward compatible with the existing mounting hardware. With only two models to choose from – Blade 100 or Blade 200 – businesses can meet their desired performance level with a 50% reduction of required units. Blade’s built-in adjustable focus and a comprehensive range of connectivity and networking options guarantee a faster return on investment compared to previous models.
Blade provides a whole new world of opportunities for Logistics, Fulfilment, and Distribution Centers, providing the ability for retailers to truly become omnichannel providers. Businesses will experience increased throughput with the cutting edge technology contained within these tiny powerhouses, exceptional ROI over 10-15 years of use, a user-friendly experience for configuration and continued performance monitoring, Blade stands as the future of compact industrial 1D readers, offering greater growth potential for businesses worldwide.
