Direct marking on sheet materials such as cloth, non-woven fabric, and film often results in distorted 2D codes due to wrinkles, sagging, or stretching, making stable reading difficult. Additionally, the gloss of the material itself and the low contrast of the print were major causes of reading failures with conventional code readers.
The KEYENCE AI-powered code reader, SR-X Series, solves these challenges of reading challenging codes. Its unique, advanced image correction algorithm instantly corrects DataMatrix codes deformed by wrinkles or distortions. Furthermore, the built-in versatile lighting and the latest imaging technology minimize the effects of adverse conditions like gloss and low contrast, automatically establishing optimal imaging conditions.
This achieves overwhelming reading stability even in processes where reading was previously unstable. In addition to strengthening traceability through individual item management, it significantly contributes to the stable operation of production lines and productivity improvement. The performance of the SR-X Series truly shines when reading difficult codes on sheet materials.
