Barcode verifiers, such as the
Stratix
Xaminer Elite, are primarily used by
businesses that print barcodes, but any trading partner in the
supply chain could test barcode quality. It is important to
"grade" a barcode to ensure that any scanner in the supply chain
can read the barcode. Some
Wholesalers and Retailers levy large
fines and penalties for non-compliant barcodes. Can your
business afford to have a shipment refused because of unreadable
barcodes?
Barcode verifiers work in a way similar to a scanner but instead
of simply decoding a barcode, a verifier performs a series of
eight tests. Each test is given a grade from 0.0 to 4.0 (F to A)
and the lowest of any of the tests is the scan grade. For most
applications a 2.5 (C) grade is the minimum acceptable grade
Make sure you're compliant and not subject to fines or refused
shipments by verifying every barcode that leaves your production
line. Action Packaging has the right solution to give you the
piece of mind you deserve. You have enough issues to deal with
everyday
without having to worry about your products being rejected
before or at final delivery.
