Common features

Integrated design

All components for lighting, optics, image acquisition
(camera) and signal processing (CPU) are combined
in one unit and are mutually optimized to ensure that
reading codes is performed quickly, reliably and with
virtually no maintenance.

Reliable code reading for DPM

Various original pre-processing algorithms are applied to allow
decoding even 2D codes that are difficult to read.

We have significantly improved the accuracy
of reading direct marking on metal (which is
highly problematic for automatic reading) and
image detection abilities by using our new
pre-processing functions and library.

14 types of pre-processing are available. Settings are made by
simply selecting from a pull-down menu.

Real time image transfer and storage

Images with read errors (or all images) can be stored in the
main unit. In addition, using the free utility tool - PDTOOL–
images can be transferred to a PC and stored in specified
orders in real time.

The hardware

Illumination control

The integrated LED illumination of PD60 can be
activated completely or only partially.

Easy installation

Two LEDs project red spots on the working
surface. The correct working distance is indicated
when the two spots intersect and appear as one.
This combined spot also shows the centre of the
inspection area, which is useful for aligning the
sensors’ field of view.

The hardware

Automatic light switching

Reading under the optimum lighting conditions
is made possible by the automatic light switching
function. It switches between two lighting patterns
which grants greater reading.

Dual signal notification

Whether reading is possible or not will be
confirmed visually during operation.

Long range type

A long range type with 200mm working distance is
available.

Robust aluminium body

PD60 can be used in harsh industrial environments.
Its compact aluminium housing and robust
connectors conform to the protection class IP67G.

For reading the hand reader gets pointed on a
particular part and the reading process starts by
pressing the trigger.

The software

Overview

Easy-to-use setup software PDTOOL

You can configure the PD60/65 with our free-of- charge Windows-based software PDTOOL. First-time users easily grasp the
settings principles and are aided by such functions as auto-teaching. PDTOOL provides the customer with several convenient
functions:

1. Clear and well structured user interface

2. Simple setup – one step automatic settings

3. Individual adjustments possible if necessary

Just use the mouse to move

the inspection area position or

change the size.

The easy setting mode allows

even inexperienced users to come

to a suitable setup in a short time.

The detail setting mode allows you to

configure the code setting, settings for

black/white reversed code and horizontally

flipped code, etc.

Several pre-

processing

algorithms allow

reliable code

reading even for

difficult-to-read

codes.
