“Rapid adoption of DPM identification for part traceability has manufacturers demanding a rugged, self-contained reader that performs consistently on all types of codes and parts,” said Justin Testa, Sr. VP, ID Products. “The DataMan 7500 sets a new performance standard for handheld DPM readers, reliably reading everything from the most challenging DPM codes to the easiest printed barcodes. And the new reader is rugged enough to withstand up to 50 drops to concrete from two meters.”
The handheld ID readers combine IDMax code reading software with an UltraLight illumination technology to read codes regardless of marking method, part material, shape or surface texture. The series includes the 7500 corded and 7550 cordless models.
Cognex teamed with Hand Held Products on the development of the readers.
