How to choose a warehouse inventory machine? What to pay attention

Release Time:2020-07-21

At present, a bar code data collector (inventory machine) that can store tens of thousands of bar code information has been introduced and is widely used in warehouse management, commodity inventory and various field operations. For general users, pay attention to when selecting warehouse inventory machines:

　　

 

(1) Scope of application

Users should choose different data acquisition terminals according to their own different situations. If users apply data acquisition terminals in relatively large and three-dimensional warehouses because some items are stored in higher locations and are far away from operators, we should choose collectors with large scanning depth of field, long reading distance and high first reading rate. For users of small and medium-sized warehouses, the requirements in this regard are not very high, and you can choose some collectors with complete functions and easy operation. For users to buy bar code data acquisition terminal, the most important point when choosing is "enough", that is, to buy suitable for their own needs, rather than blindly buying expensive, functional acquisition system.

(2), decoding range

The decoding range is an important indicator for selecting a barcode data collector (inventory machine). Each user has its own bar code system range, most bar code collectors can identify EAN code, UPC code and other several or even more than a dozen different code systems, but there are great differences. In the application of logistics enterprises, EAN128 code, 39 code and Kudba code should also be considered. Therefore, users should fully consider the coding range in their actual application when purchasing, to select the appropriate collector.

(3) Interface requirements

The interface capability of the collector is another important index to evaluate its function, and it is also the key consideration when selecting the collector. When purchasing, users should first make clear the operating environment and interface mode of their original system, and then choose the barcode collector that adapts to the operating environment and interface mode.

(4), the first reading rate requirements

The first reading rate is a comprehensive indicator of the bar code data collector (counting machine), which has a certain relationship with the printing quality of the bar code symbol, the design of the decoder and the performance of the scanner. The higher the first reading rate, the more working time is saved, but correspondingly, its price is bound to be higher than that of other data acquisition terminals. In the process of inventory (inventory) of goods, bar code symbols can be manually controlled and repeatedly scanned by bar code data collector (inventory machine). Therefore, the requirement on the first reading rate is not strict, it is only a measure of work efficiency. However, in the automatic sorting system, the requirements for the first reading rate are very high. Of course, the higher the first reading rate of the bar code data acquisition terminal, it will inevitably lead to an increase in the bit error rate, so users should purchase the collector that meets the system requirements according to their actual situation and economic ability when selecting the collector, and balance the first reading rate and the bit error rate.

(5) Price

When choosing a barcode data collector (inventory machine), its price is also a concern. The price of the collector will also vary greatly due to its different configurations and functions. Therefore, when purchasing the collector, we should pay attention to the performance-price ratio of the product, so as to meet the requirements of the application system and the lower price as the purchase object, and truly achieve "good quality and low price".

Conclusion: The application of bar code data acquisition system can not only save time, reduce workload, reduce management costs, effectively improve the inventory structure, but also establish data acquisition system in logistics enterprises, the use of data acquisition terminal is also very feasible.
