Staff -- Test & Measurement World, 2/1/2006
Codeveloped by Cognex and Hand Held Products, the DataMan 7500 series handheld direct part mark (DPM) readers are designed for manufacturers implementing part traceability programs in various industries. The series combines Cognex's IDMax code-reading software with an UltraLight illumination technology to read codes regardless of marking method, part material, shape, or surface texture. The product is available in both corded and cordless models. "Collaborating with Hand Held Products, the leader in image-based auto ID, allows us to deliver industry-leading Cognex DPM reading technology in the rugged, ergonomic form factors that industry demands," said Justin Testa, Cognex Senior VP, ID Products. "Going forward, we will work together with Hand Held Products to deliver wireless and mobile solutions for DPM ID." www.cognex.com.
