Dataman 100 Reader

The Cognex DataMan™ 100, the world's smallest high-performance ID reader, reads everything from simple bar codes to challenging DPM marks with ease!

Cognex DataMan image-based ID readers represent a breakthrough in combining unmatched code reading performance, ease of use, and an extremely small size. Lighting, camera, processor, and communications are all integrated into an exceptionally small industrial housing, making DataMan 100 ID readers ideal for the most challenging applications.

Read All Codes With Speed and Accuracy

DataMan 100 ID readers achieve an incredibly high performance level... six sigma read rates at up to 45 parts per second. And, the DataMan 100 family provides 1D and 2D code reading, with models that read even the most challenging 2D codes!

DataMan ID readers incorporate reading algorithms that are optimized to ensure continuously high read rates of 1D and 2D symbologies, in direct part mark and label-based identification applications, on the fastest production lines. This allows DataMan readers to deliver the industry’s most reliable code reading. Models are available for all fixed-mount code reading applications.

The Power of IDMax™... breakthrough Data Matrix code reading software based upon the patented Cognex PatMax technology. IDMax handles a wide range of degradations to code appearance that result from dramatic degradations in DPM code quality due to differences in material types and surfaces. IDMax is available with the Dataman 100X model.

The Speed of IDQuick™... fast, high-performance reading of high-quality 1D and 2D codes, as well as low-contrast codes on uniform backgrounds. The DataMan 100Q and 100X models incorporate the IDQuick decoding software.

Ease of Use Through Innovation

DataMan 100 series ID readers offer impressive ease of use through the integration of lighting, camera, aimer, and communications. And, a wide array of accessories facilitates DataMan integration into systems

The DataMan 100 aimer, train and trigger button, beeper, and LED read indicator enable "out of the box" operation, without requiring a PC for setup or job changeovers. The intuitive setup tool is available for advanced reader setup. The DataMan 100 setup tool allows quick and easy customization of parameters.
