1. Honeywell Voyager 1200g
The Honeywell Voyager 1200g impresses with its rapid scanning speed for virtually all linear barcodes, even if they are poorly printed or damaged. The enhanced object detection and automatic stand detection and configuration allow for quick readiness for use. This versatile scanner excels with its outstanding scanning performance and robust design, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. Another advantage of the Voyager 1200g is its intuitive operation, which requires minimal user training. The device scans linear barcodes quickly and reliably in all environments and easily decodes poorly printed, smudged, or faded barcodes. Even dense barcodes with an extremely low resolution of up to 3.5 mil pose no problem, allowing you to save on the costly purchase of a specialized scanner. The Voyager 1200g, designed with minimal downtime and maintenance costs in mind, features only a shock-absorbing circuit board, making it significantly less susceptible to impacts and vibrations. The molded rubber cover of the embedded control button further protects the device from damage in case of accidental drops. The safety features are completed by a scratch-resistant safety glass window and an IP42 protection rating.

2. Honeywell Eclipse 5145
The 5145 Eclipse is a single-line handheld laser scanner. Thanks to Honeywell's patented CodeGate technology, users can easily aim at the barcode.

CodeGate is ideal for scanning menus. CodeSense allows for automatic switching from pulse mode to a continuous beam as soon as a barcode is detected. The Powerlink cable uses the same cables and power supplies as Voyager and Orbit and can be replaced by the user. Flash ROM enables firmware updates from any PC using Honeywell's MetroSet2 software. The scanner is compatible with OPOS and JPOS systems and can be easily integrated into any user system.
