PowerScan 9600 corded and cordless options
The right PowerScan 9600 configuration depends on how and where the scanner will be used. Some operations benefit from the simplicity of a corded scanner, while others require wireless mobility.
| Configuration | Best suited to | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| Corded PowerScan 9600 | Fixed scanning positions | Packing benches, production stations, goods-in desks and other permanent workstations. |
| Cordless PowerScan 9600 | Mobile scanning workflows | Warehouses, pallet scanning, production areas and applications where operators need to move away from a workstation. |
| Specialist configurations | Application-specific requirements | Industrial environments requiring particular connectivity, scanning or operational capabilities. |
Built for demanding warehouse operations
Warehouse barcode scanners often need to withstand much tougher conditions than scanners used at a retail counter or office workstation.
Devices can be used continuously throughout long shifts, moved between different areas of a site and exposed to accidental impacts, dust and busy loading environments.
The Datalogic PowerScan 9600 is designed with these industrial applications in mind, making it a strong option for businesses upgrading from general-purpose barcode scanners.
Everyday industrial scanning
