Reading Bar Codes in the High-End Sector
1000 scans per second and a wide opening angle of 60° for a large reading field – with these features, the new BCL 900i plays in the upper league of high-end readers. In addition to its code reconstruction technology (CRT), which enables the reading of damaged codes, the BCL 900i bar code reader convinces above all with the variety of already integrated interfaces, whereby the RS 232 as well as RS 422 interface can transmit signals parallel to the Ethernet-based interface, e.g., Ethernet/IP. On top of this are interfaces for Profinet, TCP/IP and UDP. The operation of the reader, among other things for the self-test, auto-configuration, setup and reset functions, is a made easy by means of push buttons. As is typical with Leuze electronic readers, the BCL 900i can be configured independent of location via the Web using a standard browser. During a process, LEDs indicate the respective operating state. Three inputs and two programmable outputs round out the performance capabilities of the reader. The range of applications is expanded further by two versions with different optics (high and medium density). Furthermore, the BCL 900i devices can also be used for omnidirectional code reading in MSPi (Modular Scanner Portals) systems.

Automating Packing Slips Even Easier with TwinPrint® Mod 6
- Reduced Downtime: With simpler label paths, improved electronics and mechanics, faster cylinder cycling, and reduced label memory, the TwinPrint® Mod6 increases production rates and equipment uptime.
- More Cost Effective: TwinPrint® printer-applicators eliminate separate packing slips or promotional pieces and packing slip envelopes, increases production time by combining two processes in one, and eliminate errors due to information mismatches.
- Less Waste: TwinPrint® printer-applicators eliminate up to 60% of label liner waste. They also eliminate the cost of plastic packing slip envelopes as well as the waste generated from their liners.
- Greater Data Security: When a ribbon is used, the information printed with the ribbon is visible on the spent ribbon. TwinPrint® Print and Apply with 2ST™ technology printer-applicators eliminate the ribbon thereby eliminating the risk that customer information can be stolen by reading the used thermal transfer ribbon. Additionally, matching the shipping information to packing slip information is guaranteed.
