Time is a crucial factor in the traceability and quality assurance of products and labels in real time. At the same time, the demands on the character recognition systems used are increasing: they should be able to read text, numbers, code, or even better, logos and graphics (OCR) and verify (OCV). And preferably all at the same time.
IMAGO's FastCodeReader is specialised for high process speeds of up to u 800m/min. and works reliably and with high reading rates even at high conveyor speeds. The integrated line scan camera with narrow and long images is optimised for the requirements of long and single-line code lines on packaging, foils and packages (image size e.g. 300 x 500 pixels). The FastCodeReader is suitable for multiple tasks: It reads (OCR) numbers, letters and characters and codes of any font, such as serial, batch, product numbers, best before date or entire address files. It also evaluates the quality, correctness and compliance with the specifications (OCV) of, for example, barcodes or QR codes. The capabilities of the FastCode Reader go far beyond the features of an OCR/OCV reader by reading and verifying logos and graphics. The intelligence of the integrated VisionCam even allows to identify different data e.g. code, text and logos at the same time.
