DataMan 280 series fixed-mount barcode readers offer fast decoding, easy setup, and valuable Industry 4.0 features, like web browser connectivity and performance monitoring, in a small form factor. DataMan 280 was engineered to better track and trace items throughout manufacturing and logistics supply chains solving a broad range of tough 1D, 2D, and direct part mark (DPM) code applications.

Key Features

  • High performance in a compact package: Improve throughput and productivity across a variety of applications using industry-leading 1D/2D algorithms and uniform lighting.
  • Robust reading: Operate in the most challenging code-reading environments with dynamic auto-focus and advanced high dynamic range imaging.
  • Out-of-the-box functionality: Unbox, install, and decode with fast, intuitive deployment even for specialized applications.
  • Flexible connectivity and communications: increase efficiency and exchange information faster using 1gigabit/second Ethernet, rapid image offload, easy data management, and multi-reader sync.
  • AI-enabled tuning: AI tuning allows for fast setup on challenging applications.

DataMan 280 series was designed to be flexible. The modular hardware and software can be configured to solve any barcode reading challenge. Easily decode difficult DPM codes on challenging automotive and medical device surfaces. Read multiple label-based barcodes simultaneously on boxes and pallets, even behind specular wraps. And accurately read user presented codes with a large depth of focus for speedy handling.

The latest patented decoding algorithms and technology read low resolution and damaged codes at high speeds, including QR codes. High Dynamic Range (HDR) technology enhances image quality and contrast to improve code handling and enable greater coverage for better efficiency. High-Speed Liquid Lens (HSLL) technology dynamically autofocuses without any mechanical parts to solve high-speed, high-variability applications with fewer cameras in less time.
