Wireless ring scanner: Honeywell has released
its new high-performance 8670 Wireless Ring
Scanner with Bluetooth technology, a compact,
lightweight scanner that fits comfortably on a
finger to allow workers to keep both hands
free when completing their tasks.
The scanner uses Bluetooth technology to
connect to a range of computing devices,
such as PCs, laptops, tablets, vehicle-mounted
computers, rugged mobile computers, and
smartphones.
The 8670 Wireless Ring Scanner delivers
high-speed decoding, motion tolerance, and
the ability to decode poor quality or damaged
bar codes. The 2-D imager can also be used as
a 1-D scanner and can capture small bar codes
in high detail. Because the scanner is separated
from the Bluetooth and battery module, the
8670 Wireless Ring Scanner is lightweight and
comfortable for workers. The soft, elastomeric
finger and wrist straps provide comfort, are
impervious to moisture, and are easily cleaned.
The new ring scanner can be used across all
areas of a distribution center as well as in the
field in transportation, logistics, and retail environments. (Honeywell, www.honeywell.com)
Flow racks: Creform has introduced new
heavy-duty flow racks built with 42 mm pipe
and joint. Built to withstand the rigors of
an industrial environment and to hold heavy
parts, the heavy-duty flow rack is constructed
of Creform 42 mm pipe and joint, as well as
heavy-duty skatewheel conveyor, both durable, strong, and long lasting. The combination
provides extra capacity and rigidity to handle a
rugged industrial environment.
The fully assembled and ready-to-use racks
will be nested inside pallet racks, giving the
user high-density flow
racks at floor level while
retaining the upper levels of the pallet racks for
bulk storage.
The rack features
eight leveling feet and
Creform’s heavy-duty
skatewheel conveyor.
Low-friction skatewheel
conveyors allow for shallow flow lane angles suitable for both plastic
returnable totes and cardboard boxes. The flow
lanes are angled for repeatable container flow
and presentation. The gravity design allows for
first-in, first-out feed. The rack also features
lane dividers, which help ensure that boxes
or totes stay securely in their respective lanes.
