The long distance/short distance, long-range/high-density bar
code linear imager for mobile reading or cable replacement
The Cordless Communication
MBC6890 achieves the real-time cordless data transmission to
the host through the most contemporary Bluetooth module.
The Maximized Freedom of Scanning
MBC6890 can free the operators from standing behind the desk,
so they can move around and scan the bar code labels on bulky
items without any difficulty.
The Reliable Plug & Play Solution
In order to guarantee the accuracy of data transmission, the
auto acknowledgement will feedback from the Smart Cradle to
scanner. Therefore, the bar code scanning can be processed
more freely, efficiently and correctly.
The Embedded “FuzzyScan” Scan Engine
Applied to the latest innovative linear imaging technology, the
FuzzyScan MBC-6890 linear imager is designed to capture
bar code image up to 12” in snapshot (300 scans per second).
Thanks to the ergonomic gun-shape and no moving part
designs, this reader is the best choice to replace traditional laser
scanner with lower cost.
Both “Long-range” and “High-density” models are provided
for reading alternatives of different resolution bar codes.
Usually, the long-range model can read most popular bar codes
up to 4-mil (0.01mm) resolution. Once the very fine resolution
bar code capture is needed, you may choose the high-density
model that is fully optimized to capture bar codes up to 3-mil
(0.075mm) resolution.
