DataMan 280 series Fixed-Mount Barcode Readers

Premium decoding technology in a compact form factor

The DataMan 280 is an all purpose, all powerful barcode reader designed to perform in a variety of code-reading environments. DataMan 280 readers are engineered to track and trace items throughout manufacturing and logistics facilities. From hands-free code reading in a logistics warehouse to decoding direct part markings (DPMs) in a manufacturing plant, DataMan 280 readers increase traceability and boost throughput by delivering the highest read rates.

Features

• High performance in a compact package: Improve throughput and productivity across a variety of applications using industry-leading 1D/2D algorithms and uniform lighting.
• Robust reading: Operate in the most challenging code-reading environments with dynamic auto-focus and advanced high dynamic range imaging.
• Out-of-the-box functionality: Unbox, install, and decode with fast, intuitive deployment even for specialized applications.
• Flexible connectivity and communications: increase efficiency and exchange information faster using 1gigabit/second Ethernet, rapid image offload, easy data management, and multi-reader sync.

DataMan 280 series are versatile barcode readers that can adapt to virtually any manufacturing or logistics environment and solve a variety of code-reading challenges.

DataMan 280 readers leverage patented decoding algorithms and imaging technology to improve efficiency and throughput by maintaining high read rates in poor lighting environments and when codes are damaged.

Cognex’s high-powered integrated torch (HPIT) enables operators to toggle between red, white, blue, and green lighting options.
