BCR2660 Series
Microminiaturized Fixed Bar Code Reader


TOP

Microminiaturized bar code reader with built-in decoder, smaller than half size of a name cards

 Various manufacturing lines such as semi-conductor manufacturing, warehousing distribution systems or robotic lines with automated bar code readers, need the small and lightweight sensor-like bar code readers like NEC Infrontia's BCR2600.

The BCR2600 series was developed by NEC Infrontia (former Nitsuko and DENSEI), a leading manufacturer of bar code readers for factory automation. It is based on NEC Infrontia's high technological capabilities and years of experience. The newly released BCR2660 series was designed with microminiaturization, light-weight and built-in decoding and requires limited space for installation.

Miniaturized for space limited installations
Designed with sensor-like construction, microminiaturization 42D x 40W x 24H mm (1.7D Χ 1.6W Χ 1.0H in) and weighting only 100g (2.5 oz), it is a small-scale system, free of restrictions in installations space, thus saving valuable floor space.

Unaffected by bar code print quality
Using a 12-raster scan system and the BCR2660 is able to read even bar codes of poor quality (e.g. blurs, voids and spots).

Available for high-density bar codes
The BCR2660 is capable of reading a narrow bar, 0.15mm (5.9 mils) minimum allowing the use of high-density bar coders (32 digits), containing more information than usual.

Adaptable to many data collection systems
The BCR2660, with nonvolatile memory in the main body, can be sent to any of 30 function modes with the option special controller. It will automatically select a suitable depth-of-field from 90mm + 50, -40 (3.5 in + 2.0, -1.6) for short depth-of-field to 150mm±50 (7.1 in±2) for long depth-of-field?, thus making the BCR2660 adaptable to a wide variety of conditions. Usable in a clean room the BCR2660 uses a dust-free enclosure, allowing its use in a clean room of class 1(0.1mm).

Network
An optional special controller can be used to transfer the data via an RS-232C interface to the host computer, by connecting up to 31 bar code readers (BCR2660) through RS-485 interfaces. It can operate up to a distance of 1km (0.6mi) maximum. With the combined use of BCR2660 readers and the controller one can easily build up a customized net work system.
