Scanning baggage of different sizes while in motion

In airport baggage handling systems and distribution center transport lines, a wide variety of baggage and packages of different sizes, shapes, and positions move at high speed. How stably the attached barcode tags can be read is a critical issue that affects the accuracy of automated sorting and baggage tracking.

KEYENCE's SR-5000 Series logistics code reader is the optimal solution to this problem. By installing multiple SR-5000 Series units in a tunnel-like configuration as shown in the image, a 6-sided reading system can be easily constructed to scan barcodes without missing them, regardless of their position on the top, bottom, or sides of the package.

The SR-5000 Series, with its overwhelmingly wide field of view and long-range performance, can handle packages of various sizes moving on the conveyor. Furthermore, its autofocus function instantly focuses even on fast-moving objects, always achieving stable reading under optimal conditions. This significantly reduces the risk of line stoppages due to reading errors and greatly contributes to the automation, efficiency, and labor savings of logistics processes.
