Application example

Comparing Plain Text and DMC-Codes

The Task

In modern production facilities, where traceability and quality control are essential, reading OCR and DMC codes on components plays a key role. These codes are used not only for identification, but also to ensure complete traceability of products and components throughout complex manufacturing processes. A reliable vision system must not only recognize OCR and DMC codes, but also compare them against each other.

The Challenge

Successful code reading requires generating sufficient contrast, while operating reliably without the need for an external control unit.

Our Solution

The VISOR® Code Reader vision sensor ensures reliable OCR and DMC code recognition. The dedicated OCR detector reads text, while the datacode detector captures DMC codes. Integrated result processing enables direct code-to-code comparison on the VISOR®—no external control required. Images can also be stored on an FTP server for documentation. 

Your Advantages

  • No additional control unit required
  • Code comparison takes place directly on the VISOR®
  • Flexible application with VISOR® hardware variants: integrated optics and C-mount with external lens
  • Global shutter technologyensures reliable barcode reading, even on moving parts
  • User-friendly system with a wide range of selectable functions at the touch of a button
