Earlier this year Honeywell launched a new industrial-grade hand-held scanner called the Granit 191Xi and it’s their best industrial, hand-held area imager yet. We realize there are some strong contenders in this space, but this device has exceeded customer expectations in terms of durability and aggressive scanning ability. Designed specifically for harsh environments, they definitely did not compromise imaging performance — which is where many comparable devices fall short.
Available as a tethered scanner or with a Bluetooth® Class 1, v2.1 radio, this industrial-grade device can withstand 5000 tumbles (by the way, this is the only 2D industrial device on the market that can tout this spec), survive 6.5’ drops to concrete and work tirelessly in temperatures well below freezing (tested at -30°C). It has an IP rating of 65, which means it’s resistant to dust and dirt particles as well as water sprays.
Ideal applications for the Granit include warehouse and distribution centers for shipping, receiving, picking, packing, inventory control and more. Maybe you have a cold storage application or refrigerated warehouse? No problem. This powerhouse scanner works flawlessly in cold temps. Bring on the dirty, dusty, hot and humid warehouse space and the Granit will go to work.
If you operate in a challenging environment like a warehouse, you’re bound to have bar code labels that are often damaged or hard to read. For applications where bar codes are being scanned from a distance, in poorly-lighted warehouses and with codes that are not always ideal for scanning, the Granit can easily be put to the test. With Honeywell already being a leader in imaging technology, this product is no slouch when it comes to aggressive and reliable scanning ability. Need a few more reasons to choose this product for your industrial application?
- Faster reading times than comparable devices
- Excellent motion tolerance (great for assembly lines)
- Longer reading distances (we’re talking high shelving units)
- Performs in all types of lighting conditions
Is your environment a good test for the Granit? It’s ideal for automotive, manufacturing, electronics distribution, consumer goods and more! Looking for a wireless device that responds well to products on an assembly line, are a bit out of reach or need to be scanned amongst a group of products being scanned? Then give the Granit a try, you won’t be disappointed!
