SICK Previews New High-performance Bar Code Scanners
CLV620 and CLV630 offer greater reading performance, increased functionality and flexibility
Thursday, May 01, 2008
The CLV620 and CLV630 line of bar code scanners from SICK are compact, yet powerful new tools for a wide range of logistics applications, such as distribution warehouses and parcel/postal operations.
Developed in collaboration with customers, these new bar code scanners offer greater reading performance via SMART (SICK’s Modular Advanced Recognition Technology), added functionality that enables the scanners to read poor, partially hidden, or damaged bar codes. The CLV620 and CLV630 also have much higher processing capabilities (between 10 – 20 x higher than the previous series), which results in real-time 1200 Hz scanning. Greater networking capabilities, including on-board EtherNet, CANopen and SICK CAN Networking offer customers increased communication flexibility. These innovative bar code scanners also allow users to program complex sorting, filtering and output functionality. In addition, the CLV600 series also offers the same tracking capability present in our high-end Omni Directional Systems. This allows the customer to maximize throughput by minimizing product gap.
The products are easy to set up using SICK’s SOPAS engineering tool (SICK Open Portal for Applications and Systems). This intelligent software program provides customers with a universal platform for user-friendly data management.
