BAR CODE
POSITIONING –
SECOND GENERATION
The next generation of the BPS 300i bar code positioning system
sets standards in performance and handling.
THE WHOLE IS MORE THAN THE SUM OF ITS PARTS
Your benefit lies in the combination of the many advantages offered by the BPS 300i systems. What they all have in
common is the focus on simple usability with maximum possible performance reserves for fault-free operation of the devices.
Highly resistant bar code tape, available in lengths of up to 10 km, facilitates precise and continuous position determination,
even over extremely long distances.
availability control.
BAR CODE POSITIONING
WAS NEVER THIS GOOD
Ten years of practical experience has been
incorporated in the second generation of
our bar code positioning systems. The
result is a product that sets standards
both in performance characteristics as
well as in ease of handling. Mounting
and operation are now even simpler,
faster and more reliable.

Thanks to a working range of ±60 mm, the
systems, with their laser technology, are very
tolerant of mechanical fluctuations. They thereby
offer reliable position detection with the largest
performance reserve in every environment.
availabilitycontrol.
With the integrated availabilitycontrol functionality,
the device constantly reports its function reserves,
thereby indicating, e.g., soiling in good time.
As a result, soiling-related failures can be reliably
avoided, since the system can be cleaned in good
time.
integratedconnectivity.
The integrated fieldbus permits complete
configuration of the devices directly via the control.
You thereby save time during installation and
money by avoiding otherwise needed connector
units. Should device replacement be necessary,
no configuration needs to be performed, since the
information is located in the control.
easyhandling.
The sophisticated fastening concept enables
simple and robust mounting of the devices.
This saves time and prevents difficulties during
commissioning. Should replacement be necessary,
the devices can be exchanged position-neutral,
i.e., without realigning.

With the integrated webConfig tool, an operating-system

interface is available for configuring the device. The individual
parameters are presented in an easy-to-understand, graphic
form.
THE BPS 300i IN THE PROFINET WORLD
With the integrated PROFINET, it is possible to configure
the BPS 300i via the module structure contained in the
GSD / GSDML file directly via the HW Config. In doing so,
the parameters that are set are stored in the control
and, should a device need to be replaced, are automatically
transferred to the new device.
POWER IS NOT A QUESTION OF SIZE
Our compact BPS 8 bar code positioning system requires
little space and, thanks to its large working range, is able to
compensate for mechanical fluctuations reliably. It convinces
with simple mounting mechanics and a standardized M12
plug connection.
For positioning high-bay storage devices and lifting units,

The BPS 8 is available either with front beam exit
or with a deflecting mirror.

ONLY THE RIGHT BAR CODE TAPE MAKES
A POSITIONING SYSTEM PERFECT –
FLEXIBLE IN LENGTH AND HEIGHT
The second fundamental element of a Leuze electronic bar
code positioning system is the bar code tape. The photo-
setting technique is used to print a unique bar code at
regular intervals on a self-adhesive and highly flexible
plastic tape. This technology makes the tape UV resistant,
extremely resilient and mechanically durable. The position
value is also printed in "plain text" to simplify handling. This
tape, which may be up to 10,000 m in length, can be simply
affixed to the travel path and conforms well to both
horizontal as well as vertical curves. From a length of 150 m,
it is possible to adapt the length and height of the tape
individually to the application. If the tape should nevertheless
be damaged, an appropriate repair kit can be downloaded
from the Internet. By integrating so-called mark labels in the
bar code tape, the bar code reader can also control specific
functions such as velocity changes or conveyor movements.
