3 Equipment Overview

3.1 Equipment Function

The T2611 Manual Serialization is a desktop device for small batch serialization. The system contains a printer for printing a serialized code onto a carton and a Smart Camera to check the Datamatrix Code and Human Readable Text. The software allows configuration and visualization.
Supported carton sizes:
• Length (L) = 50 ... 360 mm
• Width (W) = 60 ... 190 mm
• Height (H) = 25 ... 220 mm
Smaller heights upon request.
The printer together with the Smart Camera can be moved up and down to allow flexible vertical printing areas.

3.2 Equipment Description

The following image is a simplified representation of a T2611 Manual Serialization with a Bluhm printer (standard option) and an SMC. Other configurations, for example, with a Wolke printer, are possible upon request. The overall design and principle of operation is the same. Specifications may vary depending on the selected configuration.

# Description
1 15" Display Unit
The display unit includes an integrated IPC for PLM/PLM direct.
2 Printer
The printer prints serialized information onto the cartons. The printer communicates to the PLM or to the PLM direct via Ethernet.
The print head can print a maximum print height of 12mm. Human Readable Text and Datamatrix Code must fit into this height.
3 Smart Camera
Type320 with 8mm lens Field of view: 90mmx70mm. All serialized information (Human Readable Text and
Datamatrix Code) must be within the field of view. The maximum print height is 12mm.
4 Bluetooth Hand Scanner
The hand scanner is used for the decommissioning of serial numbers.
5 Moving Plate
The moving plate moves above the fixed ground plate. The carton is placed on the moving plate and moved manually by the operator. An encoder is mounted to the ground plate and allows proper printing independently from the speed of the moving plate.
6 Harting Connector
Connects the control cabinet with the devices. Allows operators to easily disconnect the cabinet.
