Fast, Reliable DPMI Reading

June 1, 2004
Based on the vendor’s PatMax technology, IDMax is Data Matrix code reading software designed for Direct Part Mark Identification (DPMI), a fast emerging segment of the industrial ID market that involves directly marking parts with permanent two-dimensional Data Matrix codes, then reading those codes quickly and reliably.

“DPMI is a challenging application, requiring fast and reliable reading of Data Matrix codes marked directly on the toughest surfaces, such as metal, glass, ceramic and plastic,” says Justin Testa, senior vice president of ID products at the vendor. “These codes can become distorted due to the manufacturing process, and many are poorly marked with missing or inconsistent features. IDMax tolerates these distortions and achieves the high read rates that are vital to the success of any part tracking application.” IDMax code reading software is available now on the vendor’s industrial-grade In-Sight 5100, 5400 and 3400 vision sensors.
