BAR CODING SOFTWARE

      The software can recognize most 1D linear bar code to check readability, consistency and human readable match. Sequential and matching verification will automatically check for missing or duplicate serial numbers. The software can recognize and decode 2D Data Matrix bar codes to check readability and basic print quality. Sequential and matching verification will automatically check for missing or duplicate serial numbers.

      Bar coding has transformed value chain management over the last twenty years, and the ability to capture data automatically at every significant point in the value chain enables faster and more efficient management.
