DPM Technology
Direct Part Marking (DPM) is a process that allows users to imprint a bar code directly on an item instead of printing the code on a paper label. Different technologies are available to directly mark objects: laser / chemical etching, dot peening and ink jet printing. Each of these methods have specific advantages and disadvantages in terms of durability, cost and ease of reading. The PowerScan PD9530-DPM reader is a rugged handheld area imager specifically addressed and capable of reading codes marked with DPM.
reading capabilities
The PowerScan PD9530-DPM imager includes the latest optics and software from Datalogic to make the reading of codes with DPM easy and intuitive. The typical reading distance is from contact to 4-5 cm / 1.5 - 1.9 in, depending on the DPM technology used, the code resolution, and the material and surface type. The scanner is also capable of reading standard bar codes printed on labels. It is based on a high density optic which allows the capture of very small, high-resolution codes in a range from near contact up to 15.0 cm / 5.9 in.
illumination
The intuitive aiming system allows the highest first-pass reading rate. Additionally, the PowerScan 9530-DPM area imager uses a soft-pulsed white illumination light resulting in reduced flashes, which is very gentle on users eyes.
Motionix motion-sensing technology
Datalogics Motionix motion-sensing technology detects the natural actions of the operator to automatically switch the scanner into the desired scanning mode.
