Excellent decoding capabilities

PD50 reads Data Matrix ECC200 and QR codes. The codes can be created by printing, laser marking, engraving, etching and
stamping. Furthermore, even distorted, displaced or inversed codes can be read reliably.

Real-time image storage

Being equipped with a dedicated image memory, PD50 allows real-time
image storage during inspection. Up to 8 images can be saved in a ring
buffer. You can define whether to save each inspection image or only
images with negative inspection results. These images can be transferred
to PDTOOL, where they can be viewed or stored as Bitmap files, e.g. for
quality control reports.

Superior robustness

Thanks to its pre-processing functions, PD50 can read stamped or engraved codes on metal surfaces. Possible distortions caused
by material reflections, oil, oxidation or other impurities, for example, will be filtered out reliably, resulting in a clear and de-codable
image.
