Barcode station

Every code read. Every read on record.

Reads 1D and 2D codes on the line, rejects the pack when a code fails, and writes every decode to a database quality can search when a recall hits. We build and install the station.

Tell us about the system

The problem

When a recall hits, nobody can search the reads.

What fails

The record is not there

Without a stored record, quality cannot search reads by lot, line, and time.

What ships

The barcode station

Live image with the read result, pass/fail, the last 100 reads, and a database of every read. Reject when the code fails.

The record

A database of every product decode.

The station keeps the quality record for recalls. Your quality team searches the reads for that lot, line, and window. Each read records who was on the station, when it happened, and what the camera read.

Your quality team validates. We provide documentation designed to support your validation.
