Equipment Snapshot: The MAC335 Universal Code Reader from Pepperl+Fuchs is compact, economical, and easy-to-mount and configure. The stationary barcode imager reads the most common 1-D and 2-D code symbologies without having to change settings.  Its extremely high 1.3 megapixel resolution enables it to accurately and reliably read small and large codes at distances ranging from 20 mm to 300 mm at 3 readings per second.

“Embedded JavaScript makes the MAC335 a particularly unique stationary code reader,” says Tim Cicerchi, Product Manager, Pepperl+Fuchs.  “JavaScript allows you to link the code reader into all common programs, so that you can perform evaluations on the code reader itself.  JavaScript functionality often means that no PC is required.”

The MAC335 universal code reader also features Pepperl+Fuchs’ standard operator interface, Vision-Configurator.  Vision Configurator allows you to set parameters intuitively and displays images from the reader.  Using Data Matrix control codes to parameterize the MAC335 eliminates the need for separate operating software.  As a result, configuration, startup, and testing processes are simple and fast.

These 24 VDC devices offer IP65 protection, and are rated for use in temperatures ranging from 0 °C … 50 °C (32 °F … 122 °F).

The MAC335 are well suited for use in any number of industries, including packaging, print and paper, automobile, material handling, and pharma.
