COGNEX 150/260 Series Features
DM260S/DM260Q/DM260L/DM260X/DM262Q/DM262X
For 1D linear barcodes, high-density 2D matrix codes, or direct partial marking (DPM) codes, the DataMan 150/260 Series fixed-mount image-based barcode readers offer unprecedented performance, flexibility, and ease of use.
Achieve high read rates
DataMan 150/260 series fixed-mount barcode readers achieve the highest possible read rates with a high-speed, dual-core processing engine running the latest Cognex algorithms.
1DMax comes with Hotbars and 2DMax with PowerGrid technology to decode damaged or poorly printed 1D and 2D codes, even if the code quality, printing method, or surface is marked with the code, and can even read 2D codes with no visible perimeter or quiet areas.
Simplify installation in tight spaces
DataMan 150/260 Series models are available in right-angle or right-angle configurations to fit the tightest spaces. Inline and ninety-degree configurations eliminate the need for re-engineering equipment, as well as complex wiring or optical paths with mirrors.


Reduce installation time and cost of ownership
Modular lighting and optics make it easy to change the Dataman 150 and 260 Series reader lenses and field lighting. Not only does this reduce installation time and resources, but it also protects the barcode reader’s investment by streamlining the performance of each application and adapting to future process changes.
Ideal for Data Man 100/200 series retrofits
The DataMan 150/260 Series Readers use the same mounting configuration as the DataMan 100/200 Series ID Readers and are secured out. This can be easily retrofitted into existing DataMan 100/200 applications without the need for adapter plates, mounting holes, and wiring.
Since the standoff distance from the front of the reader to the code being read is exactly the same, the FOV achieved is the same without changing the machine layout, hardware, or applications.
