ID Hammer from di soric

The housing of the ID Hammer handheld ID reader from di-soric Solutions is made of a lightweight, high-strength aluminum alloy used in aircraft construction and can withstand loads of up to 60 tons. Even after frequent drops from a height of 2 m, the ID reader works with a high degree of functional reliability; the robust trigger button and the M12 standard connector also contribute to this. With a weight of 570 g and the center of gravity behind the trigger button, the device is well balanced. The code reader in IP54 decodes colored, low-contrast, blurred, contaminated, very dense, very small, damaged 1D and 2D codes as well as codes on highly reflective surfaces. It does not matter whether the codes are printed, engraved, punched, dot peen, postal, pharmaceutical or closely arranged stacked codes. With three integrated illumination variants and dual-zone optics, the ID reader automatically selects the right setting for each code reading using the blue target mark illumination. Of the images generated simultaneously with the two lenses on the 1280 x 960 pixel image sensor, the better one or the combination is automatically used for decoding. The two fixed focal length lenses together cover a reading distance range from 0 mm to a maximum of 200 mm, depending on the code and its resolution.
