Reading by presenting from a long distance

In logistics warehouses and e-commerce shipping processes, reading barcodes while handling products with both hands often becomes a bottleneck for work efficiency. Particularly in inspection and sorting tasks for apparel products packaged in plastic bags, the hassle of holding a handheld code reader and reading errors due to wrinkles and reflections on the bag are challenges.

The KEYENCE rugged industrial handheld code reader, HR-X Series, solves these issues. With its wide field of view and long-range reading performance, you can simply install it above the workbench and instantly scan barcodes just by presenting the product. This creates a hands-free environment where operators can use both hands freely, smoothing the entire process from picking to packing.

Furthermore, the HR-X Series' proprietary algorithm enables stable reading of challenging codes, such as those under vinyl or with faded print. This significantly reduces work interruptions and confirmation time caused by reading errors, greatly contributing to productivity improvement and the prevention of shipping mistakes. It is a solution that streamlines inspection and sorting tasks in the warehouse.
