New camera captures at high throughput

The high-performance camera is said to offer three major benefits within one unit. First, an integrated evaluation unit onboard the camera enables plug & play operation as a standalone system. The unit is also small and the compact design, with a width of 45cm and around 40% less weight then the previous generation, simplifies the handling and installation of the line scan camera.

Lastly, the system reads, processes and transmits the data while the goods pass through and benefits from optimum read results. This includes the secure capturing of barcodes, 2D codes and characters, irrespective of their orientation on the packages, large letters or polybags. The volume measurement system Volumec HD precisely captures the dimensions of rectangular objects, or of any other objects on conveyor belts and sorters. The product has been approved for legal-for-trade applications in accordance with the Measurement Instruments Directive (MID). This enables associated processes, as it is possible to generate invoices automatically and compare package information with the measured data on the customer-side, based on the tamper-proof stored data.

Vitronic will showcase its portfolio of innovative products and solutions for both logistics and the CEP sector (Courier, Express and Parcel services) at CeMAT 2016 in Hanover. The machine vision experts focus on Auto-ID solutions that guarantee a smooth flow of both material and data. The DWSsystems combine three steps (DWS stands for Dimensioning, Weighing, Scanning) and enable the processing of the captured data. Hall 27, C53
