Ethernet Connectivity and Liquid Lens Technology

Cognex has announced the newest addition to its DataMan family of ID readers. The new DataMan 200 adds Ethernet connectivity and liquid lens technology to the world’s smallest high performance fixed-mount reader. These new features enable faster communication speed, easier integration with factory controls, and softwaredriven autofocus for easy, hands-free setup. “The DataMan 200 combines the powerful reading performance and ultra-small size of the DataMan 100 with engineering innovations that improve connectivity, speed and ease of use,” said Carl Gerst, senior director of ID Products. “The system is the first image-based reader to feature full Ethernet connectivity in a package the size of a matchbox. It is also the first to offer liquid lens technology, which makes it ideal for applications that have variable focus requirements.”
