Extended FlexRange™ EX30 2D Extra Long Range Scan Engine ( 2D Barcode Scan Engines )

Description

The Extended FlexRange™ EX30 2D Scan Engine from Honeywell is designed to meet the demanding needs of warehouse and distribution center operations, providing seamless barcode scanning capabilities at both close and long distances. This high-performance scanning engine enables efficient and accurate reading of barcodes from 10 cm (4 in) to 20 m (66 ft), making it an ideal solution for environments where barcodes are found at various ranges—such as package labels on shelves at varying heights.

Key Features:

Versatile Scanning Range:

• Wide Read Range: The EX30 supports both near and extended range barcode scanning. It can read barcodes at close distances (as low as 10 cm/4 in) as well as at far distances (up to 20 m/66 ft), providing flexibility in one device.
• Seamless Transition: The engine is designed to switch seamlessly between near and far barcode scanning without latency, ensuring a smooth and efficient workflow for operators.

Auto-Focus Technology:

• Fast Auto-Focus Lens: The EX30 features an advanced, embedded auto-focus lens mechanism that provides a quick focus adjustment multiple times faster than previous models. This allows for a fast and aim-and-scan operation, improving job efficiency and reducing operator fatigue.

Compact Design:

• Small and Lightweight: The EX30 has compact dimensions (13 mm x 30.5 mm x 22.2 mm) allowing it to fit easily into slim mobile devices, making it a versatile solution for a wide range of applications in warehouse management systems.

Compatibility:

• Compatible with Honeywell’s Scan Engines: The EX30 is fully compatible with Honeywell’s N670X, N660X, and N360X Series fixed-focus, compact scan engines. This compatibility helps reduce integration time and increases design flexibility, providing various performance options for different operational needs.
• MIPI Interface: The EX30 supports the MIPI interface, which is compatible with the newest processors, allowing it to integrate easily into modern mobile devices.

Flexible Integration Options:

• Decoder Software and Hardware Options: Customers can choose between using decoder software integrated into the device’s processor or utilizing the Honeywell Gen7 DB Decoder Board for hardware-based decoding. This provides flexibility for integration into both OS-based and non-OS devices, such as drones, mobile accessories, and sleds.

Applications:

The Extended FlexRange EX30 is particularly well-suited for use in warehouse and distribution center operations where workers need to scan barcodes at varying distances. Its dual-read capability makes it ideal for:

• Warehouse inventory management, where labels may be placed at varying heights on shelves and pallets.
• Distribution centers, where both close-range scanning of items on conveyor belts and long-range scanning of barcodes on high shelves are necessary.

Summary:

The Honeywell Extended FlexRange EX30 is a high-performance, compact 2D scan engine designed for applications that require both near and far barcode reading in a single device. Featuring an advanced auto-focus lens, seamless range switching, and compatibility with Honeywell’s N670X, N660X, and N360X Series scan engines, the EX30 is an ideal solution for warehouse and distribution center operations. The engine supports flexible integration into OS and non-OS devices, offering easy setup and high efficiency, making it perfect for mobile devices, drones, and other specialized equipment.
