Barcode Checker 3
|
The Barcode Checker compliments our barcode verifier range.
In an ideal world you would use a barcode verifier to verify every barcode
you print, both before and after you have applied it. However most producers only have time to verify
first and last off printed barcodes, and possibly at mid print run too. Some may also verify random products after
they have been labelled. We know of no
one who verifies every barcode both before and after application.
Not verifying every barcode can lead to the following
scenarios:
1. The barcode does not read
2. The barcode label has not been applied (at all or
correctly)
3. The barcode quality has dropped out unnoticed during
the print run

Some or all of the above scenarios will happen to you at
some point. Whether you notice as or
after it happens, or indeed before the product has been dispatched to the retailer,
will determine the level of financial loss you incur.
To avoid all of these scenarios will probably
require the employment of a full time operator to manually verify all your
barcodes, both before and after application, as it is not possible to verify
barcodes on moving product to the required ISO 15426 and 15416 standard.

Weyfringe Barcode Checker to supplement your barcode
verification routines and help protect you from the above by;
1. Checking your conveyor line to recognise approaching product
2. Checking for a barcode in the area of the product where it should be
3. Checking that the barcode reads and also has an acceptable print contrast signal
4. Checking that the barcode it reads is the correct one for the product
5. Alarming if any of the above checks fail
Would you not feel happier knowing all the above checks were
taking place? If you take the potential
costs of any of the above scenarios occurring and compare them with less than
£2.67* per day to avoid them the capital expenditure involved becomes insignificant.
If you would like to evaluate the Weyfringe Barcode Checker
just contact us and
ask for an engineer to bring one to you. We are happy to visit and set one up
so you can see for yourself how important the Barcode Checker could prove to be
to your production compliance monitoring.
