Pallet transport: Reading individually packaged items

In the pallet conveyance process in logistics warehouses and production lines, are you facing challenges with reading multiple individual barcodes or 2D codes on shrink-wrapped items? Reading multiple codes on a moving pallet quickly and stably, without being affected by reflections or wrinkles from the wrap film, is extremely important for automation and traceability management.

KEYENCE's ST Series scan tunnel system solves these challenges with a single unit. It combines an overwhelmingly wide field of view with great depth of field, making it possible to instantly read multiple codes at different heights on a pallet being conveyed, all at once. This eliminates the need to install multiple barcode readers, contributing to reduced equipment costs and space savings.

Furthermore, its unique algorithm achieves a high reading rate even under adverse conditions, such as specular reflection through shrink film or poor print quality. It reduces the risk of line stoppages due to reading errors and supports stable operation. The ST Series dramatically improves the accuracy and efficiency of pallet-level incoming/outgoing inspections and process control, leading to increased productivity in logistics and manufacturing sites.
