Product information
The Datalogic PowerScan PM9600 and PM9500 are ultra-rugged industrial handheld scanners for extreme work environments like production, warehouses, and logistics. They enable reliable scanning with omnidirectional 1D/2D imager technology, reading from contact to over 1 meter (PM9500) or with advanced optics for broader performance (PM9600).
Applications include end-of-line sorting, material handling, and tracking in manufacturing and logistics, with Datalogic STAR Cordless (433/910 MHz up to 150 m range) or Bluetooth 5.0. The PM9600 offers an optional 1.8-inch OLED display with 4/16-key keyboard, Motionix motion detection, and 3GL feedback for intuitive use; both series feature Li-Ion batteries (3350 mAh) with quick replacement or inductive charging. Interfaces include USB, RS-232, Keyboard Wedge, and Ethernet.
