Flexible Decoding and Processing of Data Matrix Codes

Reading, processing and Visualisation of 1D and 2D codes with 

the SIMATIC HawkEye handheld scanner,

SIMATIC S7-200 and the TD 400C text display

Highlights

Flexible reading and decoding of two-dimensional data matrix 
codes and one-dimensional barcodes with the SIMATIC HawkEye 
handheld scanner.

For simple requirements, the inexpensive SIMATIC S7-200 can re-
place the classic PC in the code reading applications.

Data preprocessing in the PLC allows to reduce the volume of 
data exchanged with database, and thus to ease the load on the 
communication network.

The Micro PLC can be used as a gateway for the field bus system 
used in production, such as PROFIBUS DP.

Four-line TD 400C text display for comfortable control and moni-
toring.

Use of standard Micro Automation components gives automa-
tion solutions the flexibility to grow with new requirements.

Flexible Decoding and Processing of Data Matrix 
Codes

Fields of application
The Micro Automation Set is particularly suitable for industrial and 
commercial applications which require identification/localization of 
parts. Individual parts can be identified on the basis of a data matrix 
code or barcode by a flexibly positioned handheld scanner, e.g. in:

Logistics:
Goods inward inspection and identification

Automotive industry:
Identification of drivetrain components (cylinder heads, motor 
blocks, exhaust components, etc.)

Aerospace industry:
Codes on turbine blades

Medical Devices:
Laser marks on various medical device components and 
enclosures

Electronics industry:
Laser marks on hard disks and other components

Semiconductors:
Laser marks on packaged semiconductor devices, heat sinks or 
heat spreaders
