ABR-3000 & ABR-7000

ABR-3000 & ABR-7000 Barcode Scanners & Readers

By utilizing advanced barcode reading technology to solve problems that traditional bar code scanners do not address, the ABR-3000 & ABR-7000 Barcode Scanners and Readers of Unseen ERA are built for high-quality, quick decoding of bar codes in extremely demanding environments and on very difficult bar codes. Both the ABR-3000 and the ABR-7000 can read a full spectrum of One-Dimensional, Two-Dimensional, Stacked, and Postal Bar Codes, even when the bar code is damaged, out of focus, or printed with poor ink contrast; when bar codes have been directly marked onto products and creating obstacles between the scanner and the product; as well, the ABR scanners are used with the latest systems of automation equipment.

With a compact size, durable metal casing, advanced precision optics, and flexible communication methods, the ABR series provides the exact solution to any manufacturer who is interested in increasing their ability to trace products throughout their supply chain, to improve their quality control abilities and to enhance their production efficiency in an automated line.

Advanced Barcode Readers for Difficult Applications

Where traditional bar code scanners are not capable of accurately reading damaged or misprinted bar codes, the ABR-3000 and ABR-7000 excel at reading bar codes printed on shiny materials, that are on surfaces that do not lay flat, and on products that have inconsistent quality throughout a batch of items. In addition, they will read and process multiple bar codes from multiple products, regardless of whether the product has been turned in different directions, has been placed at different height levels, or has been packed in different styles. If you are involved in Packaging, Logistics, Automotive, Pharmaceutical, or Electronics Manufacturing, the ABR series of scanners will provide consistent and high-quality performance.

For Industrial Uses, Rugged Design, Minimally Compact

Designed for difficult environments, the ABR-3000/A and ABR-7000/A scanners provide an extremely tough metal housing that meets the requirements of IP67 (Ingress Protection). They can withstand environments containing moisture, dust, and vibration, while still providing a compact footprint that makes it easy to mount in small or restrictive applications;

Easy Installation — Quick Setup

Integration is key for Unseen ERA; therefore, within minutes of receiving shipment, the installation technicians will be able to set up the scanners into their respective systems using the internal push-button controls, or using Barcode Manager, Banners free configuration software installed on a computer. The configuration process is very easy using the push buttons on the scanner, and through the Barcode Manager you can make adjustments to all scanner parameters. You will also find advanced tools for fine-tuning scanner performance provided through the Barcode Manager.

The scanner has an embedded web server that provides image capture, statistical data, and scanner status information via any network.

Compact Size, Integrated Lighting and Adjustable Lens

The ABR-3000 and ABR-7000 come equipped with integrated LED lighting and a quick-to-focus lens that allows for the maximum amount of application flexibility in one compact package with a variety of lens options, including autofocus lenses adjustable via software, that makes installation and setup extremely quick and easy for multiple reading distances and fields of view.
