Microscan V430-F000M50C-NNX Industrial Ethernet Barcode Reader
The Omron Microscan V430-F000M50C-NNX is a fixed-mount barcode reader designed for reliable reading of standard 1D and 2D barcodes, including color codes, in well-lit industrial environments. It offers a budget-friendly option with a good balance of features for basic barcode-reading applications.
Key Features:
- 5MP color CMOS sensor with X-Mode decoder: Captures details for most standard barcodes, including color codes, on various surfaces.
- Medium field of view: Accommodates larger barcodes or multiple codes within the 50-300mm adjustable focal range.
- Fast decoding speed (up to 30 fps): Ensures efficient capture, even at moderate conveyor speeds.
- White LED ring light: Provides consistent illumination for most barcode types and surfaces in well-lit environments.
- Autofocus: Automatically adjusts focus for objects at different distances within the focal range.
- Rugged design: IP65/IP67 dustproof and waterproof construction withstands harsh environments.
- Flexible communication options: Also connects via Ethernet TCP/IP, EtherNet/IP, and PROFINET.
Strengths:
- Budget-friendly: Offers basic barcode reading capabilities at a competitive price.
- Versatility: Handles standard 1D and 2D barcodes, including color codes, on various surfaces.
- Efficient: Reads barcodes quickly and accurately, even at moderate speeds.
- Reliable: Dustproof, waterproof, and secure connections for harsh environments.
- Easy to set up and use: Simple configuration with WebLink interface.
Comparisons:
- Similar core features to V430-F000M50C-SRP and V430-F064M50C-NNP in terms of camera and illumination.
- Stands out for its lower price point.
- Lacks the enhanced light penetration and targeting features of models like V430-F000M50C-SWX and V430-F000M50C-SRX.
Overall: The Omron Microscan V430-F000M50C-NNX is a budget-friendly choice for basic barcode reading in well-lit environments. Its color capability, adjustable focus, and robust design make it suitable for simple applications where cost is a priority and advanced features are not essential. Consider models with blue LED illuminators, liquid lens autofocus, or wider field of view if your needs involve low-light conditions, very small barcodes, or larger objects at varying distances.
