Cognex DataMan 80 Fixed-Mount 1D & 2D Barcode Scanner for reliable decoding technology in an ultra-compact form factor is a hands-free image-based barcode reader with a small footprint designed to track and trace items throughout manufacturing and logistics facilities. With Power over Ethernet (PoE) and USB connection option, these flexible readers decode direct part marks (DPMs) as well as damaged and obscured 1D/2D label-based barcodes, across a range of industries, environments, and applications.
Cognex DataMan 80 Fixed-Mount 1D & 2D Barcode Scanner is an ultra-compact, fixed-mount, image-based 1D/2D barcode reader designed for tight spaces in manufacturing and logistics. It offers reliable decoding of label-based codes and direct part marks (DPMs) with advanced algorithms.
Main Features: Ultra-compact design: Fits in confined machinery and congested conveyor lines. Advanced decoding: 1DMax with Hotbars: Fast omnidirectional 1D reading (up to 10x faster on low-resolution codes). 2DMax with PowerGrid: Reads damaged or incomplete 2D codes (QR, DataMatrix, etc.). Supports damaged, obscured, or low-contrast codes.
High-Speed Liquid Lens (HSLL): Dynamic autofocus (no moving parts) for high-speed, high-variability applications. High Dynamic Range (HDR): Better performance in challenging lighting. Edge Intelligence (EI): Real-time performance monitoring, analytics, and multi-device management. Preconfigured out-of-the-box: Quick setup with one-cable options. Lighting flexibility: Red (standard), white, blue, infrared, ultraviolet; polarized or standard covers. Multiple code reading: Reads several codes simultaneously in the field of view.
Why Choose the Cognex DataMan 80 Fixed-Mount 1D & 2D Barcode Scanner: Maximize Space: Leverage its ultra-compact form factor to install easily into congested machinery and on tight conveyor lines. Achieve High Performance: Read challenging 1D/2D label-based codes and DPMs with patented decoding algorithms and advanced imaging. Streamline Integration: Set up and start scanning within minutes using flexible Power over Ethernet (PoE) and USB connection options.
Models & Variants: Power/Connection Options: DataMan 80 PoE — Power over Ethernet (RJ45/RJ50). DataMan 80 USB — USB-C powered.
Reading Capabilities (varies by model): L/QL: Primarily 1D. S/Q/X: 1D + 2D (X models often include enhanced DPM and PowerGrid).
Common product examples: DMR-80X-112E, DMR-80X-154U-P, etc. (many configurations for lens, light, and cover).
Technical Specifications:
Imaging & Performance (both PoE & USB): Image sensor: 1/3” CMOS, 1.6 MP (1440 x 1080 pixels). Pixel size: 3.45 µm. Acquisition speed: 45 fps. Lens: Integrated (6.2 mm or 16 mm HSLL) or C-Mount.
Power & Consumption: PoE: Average 4.3 W, max 6 W (PoE Class 2). USB: Average 3.5 W (or ~3.3 W), max 6 W.
Dimensions & Weight (approximate, varies by lens): Very compact (exact dimensions in CAD files on Cognex site). Weight: 64–132 g depending on lens assembly (6.2mm vs 16mm).
Field of View: Varies by lens (6.2 mm for closer range, 16 mm for longer). Diagrams show working distances from ~50–500 mm.
Applications: Manufacturing: Component tracking, assembly lines, Direct Part Marking (DPM) reading (dot peen, laser etch). Logistics & Supply Chain: Shipping labels, high-speed lines, multiple code reading. Track & Trace: High-variability, hands-free scanning. Ideal for tight spaces where larger readers (e.g., DataMan 280/290) don’t fit.
Advantages: Easy integration and fast deployment. High reliability on challenging codes. Combines with Cognex Edge Intelligence for smarter operations. Cost-effective entry into image-based reading vs traditional laser scanners.
Note: Cognex promotes upgrading to the DataMan 290 for AI-powered enhancements and better performance in more demanding applications.
