HoloTrak Ô Omni-directional Bar Code Scanners

1. HoloTrak ÔOmni-directional Bar Code Scanners VAR Training 1999

2. HoloTrak ÔOmni-Directional Reader Family • This line of Omni-Directional Bar Code Readers provides a revolutionary product for the bar code market place. • This line provides extraordinary reading capability with prices 1/3 to 1/2 that of other Omni-Directional Readers. IS8500 IS8400 IS8530 IS8300

3. HoloTrak Scanner Family- Benefits • Lower Cost • 1/2 to 1/3 the cost of Competitive units • Smaller size • 10”x10”x6”, or 14”x15”x7” • Better reliability • One moving part • Easy manual backup • Undecoded Hand-Held Scanner Port • Large read area

4. Metrologic’s Holographic Technology • The price and performance is possible due to Holographic Technology, specifically the use of holographic lenses to focus the lasers. • The only moving part is the spinning disk with the lenses. • As each lens passes each laser, it focuses the beam to the proper focal length. • This results in low cost, small size and great reliability.

5. Holographic Disk • A disk has 15, 16 or 21 holographic facets (or lenses) • Each sector is equivalent to two lenses and a mirror • The lens focuses both outgoing and incoming light • Holographic emulsion is sealed between 2 glass disks with epoxy • Disks have been tested by boiling and freezing • Disks rotate at 4200 RPM for up to 7,350 scan lines /second

6. Holographic Scanning Rotating Holodisc Facets Laser diode (1) Focus Photodetector (3) Receive reflective light (2) Scan Bar Code

7. IS8000 Series Why HoloTrak? • 3, 4 or 5 “Focal Lengths” • Each HoloTrak has a complete scan pattern with its scan lines focused for that level • The overlapping read areas of the focal lengths provide the large read volumes and consistent read width

13. HoloTrak Target Applications • Package sortation/distribution • Overhead scanning • Truck loading / unloading • Vehicle scanning • Tire Tracking • Paper roll scanning • Baggage / cargo handling • Hand held scanner replacment • reduces amount of time to scan a label (move product or walk under reader) • can increase productivity and reduce cost

14. HoloTrak Selection Considerations • Conveyor / line speed • typically 300 ft/min maximum • higher speeds possible but dependent on bar code quality, size, and aspect ratio • Bar code aspect ratio (width to height) • Package spacing • 12” for IS8300-1L, IS8530-1L • 22” for IS8500-1L, IS8400-1L
