Metrologic 160 Application

Overhead, or over-the-belt bar code
scanning is a mature market, with
systems in operation for over 20 years.
Consequently, the product selection
criteria hinges not on whiz-bang features,
but rather on delivering good
performance at a good price. Metrologic
has established its reputation on
exactly that - good (oftentimes best)
performance, at a better price.
Metrologic's leading products for
overhead scanning are:
· iQ 160 Fixed-focus camera
®
· iQ 185 Variable and Fixed-focus camera
®
· iQ Trace height profiler
®
· iQTroller computer/hub
®
· Best-in-class Omniplanar decode
software
The iQ-series cameras use a unique,
laser-line illumination system that
generally results in greater instantaneous
depth-of-focus (DOF) than competing
cameras. In a sense, it represents a
hybrid of a laser scanner (although the
laser line is fixed, as opposed to
"scanned"), and a conventional camera.
That increased DOF translates into higher
read rates on non-ideal package shapes.
For systems requiring the 36" DOF of
the iQ185, we provide the iQTrace
height profiler. It dynamically maps
the "terrain" of the package stream to
focus the camera in real time. Both

cameras work at speeds of up to 600
feet/min.
Our iQTroller is a customized industrial
computer designed for overhead and
tunnel scanning applications. It executes
the Omniplanar bar code decode
application, and has a built-in Ethernet
hub for extensive network connectivity.
It also supports real-time JPEG image
compression and storage of tens of
thousands of no-read images to help
diagnose problems without a separate
image storage component.
Finally, Metrologic stands by its
customers with unmatched service
and support. Founded in 1968, we've
had consistent year-over-year sales
growth in 34 out of 38 years. We've
been listed on the NASDAQ since
1994. Many of our customers have
complimented us on our responsiveness
- accelerating deliveries or being able
to directly access our Applications and
Field Support engineers - should the
need arise.
If you are looking to upgrade or
implement an overhead scanner for
sorting, inventory tracking, shipping or
receiving, give us a call.
