SR-750 Series 2-D Code Reader

Keyence Corp. of America adds a new fixed mount 1D and 2D barcode reader to its line of Auto ID products. The SR-750 Series incorporates new and advanced decoding algorithms.

Pre-processing techniques, such as brightness and contrast threshold correction, along with significantly enhanced image filtering capabilities ensure images are optimized prior to decoding. Upgraded processing includes localized binary threshold settings for unique regions of the code make the reader well suited for direct part marking applications. The high speed search algorithm locates codes more quickly when the background image is complex

In addition to updated code capture and process techniques, the SR-750 boasts features increasing its ease of use and read reliability. Long range (over three feet) and wide field of view models are available when the position of barcodes may vary.

Built-in communication and increased connectivity ensures easy integration to new and existing systems. EtherNet/IP, TCP/IP, PROFINET, FTP, RS-232c, Power over Ethernet and data editing functionality are included and available without the need for external communication units. Intuitive and simple to use setup software automatically adjust lighting and image filtering settings with one click. Preventative maintenance function can provide feedback and indicate when code printing or marking quality is deteriorating before code reading is impossible.
