Mini Imager: Powerful New Mini Imager Reads Tiny Codes Barely Visible To Human Eye

Microscan Systems announced a new development in mini imagers. With 3 megapixel imaging, the Quadrus MINI 3 extends bar code imaging technology, and, according to the company, provides the highest resolution available today for data tracking. The Quadrus MINI 3 is able to decode tiny, high density codes of less than 3 mil. Active demonstrations can be seen at SEMICON West 2007 in Microscan's Booth # 8906.

Manufacturers in industries such as printed circuit board assembly and semiconductor manufacturing must use ever smaller parts and components to stay competitive , yet they still require a component tracking system. Marking, then decoding identification on miniature components has been a challenge for many of today's manufacturers. "The new Quadrus MINI 3 is the next step in our mini imager technology," commented Microscan president Dennis Kaill. "We've more than doubled the image processing capabilities to provide the resolution and field of view to read the smallest codes in the most demanding applications." As with all Microscan mini imagers, users can also experience user-friendly and time-saving features such as dynamic autofocus and single-point easy setup software.

In addition to reading tiny codes, the Quadrus MINI 3 has an extremely wide field of view and can read up to 100 different codes in a single capture, including both long linear codes and small 2D codes. The visible Symbol Locator pattern, EZ button setup, and dynamic, real time autofocus provide exceptional ease of use. The Quadrus® MINI 3 is the most powerful mini imager available for virtually all bar code applications.
