Heron HD3430
The Heron HD3430 2D imager provides a stunning black ‘carbon-fiber’ look or a white ‘silver’ color option, emphasizing the curving lines of the Heron’s enclosure. The imager also offers opportunities to incorporate a company brand identity by allowing customers to compose the perfect blend: combining a company logo with the top cover color with customized visual and audio feedback in order to reinforce the value of the customer’s brand. The Heron HD3430 area imager provides outstanding 2D reading performance and image capture capability. It also includes the patented 'Green Spot' technology for good-read feedback. User comfort is maximized with the Heron HD3430 white illumination and the highly visible 4-Dot aimer defines a precise reading zone. The aimer’s center cross provides a locator for targeted scanning in a multiple bar code environment.
Better upgrade from 3100 - Datalogic Heron HD3430 Barcode Reader
If a 1D barcode reader isn't enough for you, maybe a 2D device would be much better. Heron HD3430 is a pretty good upgrade version of HD3100. And as the name suggests, the version with higher numbers will be better upgraded. Here are the benefits of those upgrades.
a. Upgrades bring undeniable benefits
- The cheap Datalogic Heron HD3430 barcode reader has the following features and benefits, giving it a big plus compared to the Quickscan models:
- Capable of scanning 2D barcodes and all special barcode types, including superimposed and country postal codes, through which GS1 barcodes.
- The technology of scanning area images with 480p quality and can output image files such as IBM, JPEG, and TIFF give you the ability to store and process images for documents or data files.
- The machine comes with a high base for you to put the device on and avoid damage caused by water agents. Protection against external agents IP40 is not able to protect the machine from moisture.
- Like the HD3100 version, the machine still has the ability to integrate well with receipt printers and POS cash registers to form a check-out system at the counter. Fast billing support due to Datalogic Paladin and JavaPOS software helps to reduce customer billing time.
- Good resistance of the machine in addition to water resistance. It is 95% humidity, with 50 times more drop resistance at a height of 1.5m. Environmentally resistant temperature up to 50 degrees Celsius and 70 degrees in storage.
- The machine supports USB, Keyboard Wedge, OEM, and RS-232 ports very well with retail systems, convenience stores, supermarkets, and distributors.
b. Applications of Heron HD3430
- Non-food specialty stores like Fashion Clothing, Cosmetics, Jewelry, Perfume, etc.
- Duty-free Shops and Airports
- Commercial services: Banks, insurance companies, and utilities
