A read-head for every market. All utilising the Axicon software, each read head has been developed as a solution to specific requirements.

PC- 6000 series - Curved mouthpiece is a unique feature. Allowing verification on even the smallest cylindrical products.

PC- 7000 series – 100% accuracy on deeply fluted corrugate. Specifically designed to eliminate the problems of wand based verifiers on corrugate. Front flap ensures ambient light does not become an issue.

PC- 6500 series – 6,10 and 20mil apertures. 5” wide mouthpiece means that this unit is the answer for the on-demand retail supply chain. Covers the majority of EAN-13, UPC, UCC/EAN-128 and ITF barcodes.

Fixed position of CCD array. Ensures that the correct angle of illumination and collection is applied. This is not necessarily the case with either laser and wand based units or even other CCD based verifiers.

Automatic aperture discrimination. Eliminates all possibility of user error. Failure to use the correct aperture will lead to incorrect results. Axicon were the first to introduce this technology and it remains one of the major strengths of the Axicon system.

No damage to symbol. Although the read head is designed to be in contact with the symbol, the CCD technology caused no damage to the image as is often seen with wand-based verifiers.

Eliminates effects of ambient light. It is a requirement of the ISO standard to eliminate all ambient light. The enclosed design of the read head means that only the light supplied by the CCD is captured.

Consistency of readings. The combined results of the above make the Axicon system the most consistent and reliable on the market. A fact confirmed by tests carried out by the UCC.

Advantages of using Windows based software

Cost Savings. Utilises processing, printing and display power already available.

Free Software updates. All users of the system are entitled to claim free software updates for life. Additions and improvements to the software are regularly available.

Specification Compliance. As a result of the above, any changes to global specifications are incorporated without delay.

Full Colour Display. The most user-friendly and comprehensive display system on the market. Caters for all levels of barcode knowledge.

Scan File Storage & Replay. Stores not only the final average of scans but also each of the readings that contribute to it (i.e. scan 1of 10, 2of10 etc…). Also allows for results to be e-mailed for remote diagnostics.

Multilingual. Currently available in seven languages. Windows based system means others can be added at any time.

Calibration Logging. All calibration records are automatically logged. The system prompts the user to recalibrate after a designated period. Possibility to lock uncalibrated equipment. Password protected calibration. A vital part of any quality management system. 

Comprehensive list of symbologies and application standards.

Diagnostic facilities. Not only telling the user that their barcode is of an unacceptable standard but also what and where the problem lies.

Impressive list of plug-ins for all sort of barcode data validation and possibility to add new plug-ins via the software updates.
