Smarter, faster zone routing and tote tracking
Running an efficient zone routing process requires more than just reliable barcode scanning. Process issues such as unexpected debris or empty totes, inconsistent barcode label quality, or bad code orientation can cause inefficiencies and increase costs due to manual intervention and rework.
The SLX-280D solves those issues by providing both advanced barcode reading and easy-to-deploy automated vision inspection. Adding this solution to your zone routing process enhances traceability and efficiency by offering reliable decoding and detecting issues that affect throughput.
The SLX-280D handles process variation with ease, including changing tote orientation and background conditions.
Zone Routing Barcode Reading and Tote Inspection Applications
Zone Routing Barcode Reading
Ensure totes are routed to their proper destinations by decoding tracking information on 1D or 2D barcodes on the sides of totes. Consistent, reliable barcode reading performance keeps routing processes moving smoothly with minimal rework and downtime.
Tote Inspection
Deploy easy-to-use, pre-trained AI classification for jobs like verifying if a tote is empty, checking for dirt or debris, confirming tote color for special handling, or assessing barcode labels' condition for replacement. Using vision inspection in zone routing improves efficiency, reduces manual rework, and prevents larger downstream issues.
