SIMATIC MV340 is one of the most powerful handheld readers in the world and is thus particularly suitable for demanding applications. It reads a wide range of direct part markings (DPM), from linear barcodes up to 2D symbols. Different codes can be read without having to reconfigure the device.

The device is designed for close ranges and records codes at a distance of up to 50 mm. The optimum reading distance is 6 mm. The special integrated lighting is ideal for a wide variety of surfaces and increases the contrast with stamped codes. Reading despite fluctuating lighting conditions, low contrast, and twisted or damaged codes are the strengths of the MV340.

The MV340 is connected via a USB or RS232 interface to the IT system. The USB cable is included in the delivery as standard, the RS232 cable can be ordered separately as an accessory.
