Solve tough manufacturing and logistics applications
DataMan 280 series are versatile barcode readers that can adapt to virtually any manufacturing or logistics environment and solve a variety of code-reading challenges. DataMan 280 series barcode readers provide unprecedented read rates on 1D and 2D label-based codes and DPMs.
The reader’s ability to decode difficult DPMs, label-based codes, and operate in hands-free scanning situations can assist a variety of facilities increase throughput, streamline workflows, and achieve greater efficiency.
Take your operations to the next level with advanced reading and imaging technology
DataMan 280 readers leverage patented decoding algorithms and imaging technology to improve efficiency and throughput by maintaining high read rates in poor lighting environments and when codes are damaged.
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 Technology (HSLL) dynamically autofocuses without any mechanical parts, enabling the reader to solve high-speed, high-variability applications with ease.
High-Powered Integrated Torch (HPIT): Enhanced code reading with a single click
Cognex’s high-powered integrated torch (HPIT) enables operators to toggle between red, white, blue, and green lighting options. This ensures users have the right lighting for the right application by providing optimal contrast, no matter the operating environment. Multicolor lighting can also serve as a performance indicator, delivering immediate color-coded operator feedback.
Simplify setup and deployment real-time performance monitoring with Edge Intelligence
DataMan 280 series readers combined with Cognex Edge Intelligence (EI) transform big data into smart data to improve overall equipment effectiveness and throughput. EI allows users to configure multiple devices simultaneously, facilitating immediate system performance monitoring and analysis. The technology informs users when issues occur, allowing operators to identify and resolve root causes faster using powerful analytics and image view tools.
