With their HDR+ technology, high-resolution sensor and multi-core processors, these devices achieve read rates of up to 99.9% when capturing 1D, 2D and DPM codes in very fast lines in production and logistics, according to the manufacturer. They cover larger inspection areas with fewer cameras, enabling greater process variation and lower system design costs.

Multicore processors enable parallel processing of algorithms such as HDR+, 1DMax and 2DMax. The Dataman 470's high-resolution sensor provides a larger field of view and better depth of field than other readers. It captures large and small codes from different angles, high-density 2D DPM codes and multiple codes with mixed symbologies.

More uniform image with HDR+ technology

The CMOS sensor technology supports high dynamic range (HDR) imaging, which is 16 times more detailed than conventional sensors. The new series also uses HDR+ technology, which automatically enhances localized contrast changes. Compared to conventional HDR technologies, this creates a more uniform image in a single image capture and enables even greater depth of field, faster line speeds and better handling of difficult codes.

Thanks to modular lighting, lens and communication options, the various Dataman 470 device variants can be optimally adapted to any barcode reading application. The field-replaceable multi-colour and polarization options ensure flexible illumination. S-mount and C-mount connections as well as liquid lens options (autofocus) guarantee a wide range of applications.

The devices in the Dataman 470 series are easy to set up and operate with the Dataman setup tool for quick installation. Graphical application wizards make it easy to set the various parameters, even for complex applications. Intelligent tuning automatically adjusts lighting, height and other variable conditions to suit codes on different parts and surfaces.

The series supports Gigabit Ethernet for fast image transmission with full resolution to determine the cause of unread codes. The available Cognex Real Time Monitoring (RTM) technology provides Dataman 470 performance feedback in user-friendly dashboards, offering many opportunities for process optimization. as
