HEROJE H296 Series Handheld DPM Code Reader
The H296 series is a new-generation handheld DPM (Direct Part Mark) code reader combining HEROJE's patented HMAX decode algorithm with advanced multi-group illuminant design, delivering a premium experience for reading 1D, 2D label-based, and challenging DPM codes. Manufacturing environments in automotive, medical device, electronics, aerospace, and other industries require a lightweight, high-performing, and easy-to-use tool for reading shiny, highly reflective, glass, cylindrical, and dark DPM codes.
As HEROJE's 6th-generation industrial handheld 2D image scanner, the H296 series combines HEROJE's patented light source design with the latest HMAX decoding algorithm, and can be widely used across industrial, medical, logistics, and other code-reading scenarios. Its unique laser aiming light accurately indicates the code-reading area, while multiple lighting source groups with different functions adapt to different scanning scenarios through intelligent algorithm adjustment. Using HEROJE's latest HMAX algorithm achievements, it delivers excellent image acquisition and barcode analysis performance — especially for direct part marking on reflective materials like metal and glass, and high-density tiny 2D codes — making it an ideal handheld scanning solution for industrial applications.
Key Features
- Patented HMAX Algorithm — dual-drive synchronization of image acquisition and decoding significantly reduces decoding time for users who need speed
- Flexible decoding and editing capabilities — patented intelligent image algorithm supports complex application scenarios and business functions without needing additional decoding software
- Multiple interfaces — USB/RS232/PS2 port options
- Precise targeting and positioning — laser aimer precisely locates the decode area, avoiding accidental scans even when multiple codes are close together
- High-reflective decoding support — algorithm and multi-compound lighting design specially optimized for metal and reflective surface materials, including strong reflective and specular reflective DPM codes
- High protection class — up to IP64 industrial protection, suitable for harsh application environments
Applications
Metal DPM codes, low-contrast DPM codes, and laser-engraved DPM codes — well suited for automotive, medical device, electronics, aerospace, and logistics manufacturing environments requiring reliable reading of shiny, highly reflective, glass, cylindrical, and dark-surfaced codes.
