Accurate, functioning bar code symbols have become a critical requirement at all stages of the supply chain – especially as manufacturers, suppliers, and retailers all need to meet stringent compliance targets. Poor quality bar code symbols can lead to losses in productivity, massive shipping returns, and even supplier fines.

Barcode verifiers are used to guaranteeing that the barcodes you print are high quality and 100% compliant to your symbology specifications. Barcode verifiers are able to provide a detailed report about the print and read quality of a barcode as set out by ANSI and ISO specifications. Additionally, barcode verifiers are able to suggest remedial actions based on the deficiency. Using a Barcode verifier during printing, application or before shipment saves time, money and trouble

The Key Benefits of a Barcode Verification System?

A properly implemented barcode verification system provides the cost-saving benefits of: 

• Proficiency - Save time by eliminating the need to reprint barcodes. 
• Accuracy - Scan every barcode, every time without the errors of manual data entry. 
• Compliance - Ensure your barcodes meet the requirements of all your customers.

What is Print Quality Verification?

When barcodes are printed minor printing mistakes start to affect the readability of the barcode. This affects all types of barcode Data matrix and all standard 1D barcodes. If these errors are not corrected at the point of printing it could be that a batch of goods or even a whole product can be rejected for sale by a retailer.

Verifiers are precise instruments that determine the quality of the barcode through decoding, measuring, and checking the format of the code. Unlike scanners, true verifiers measure the characteristics of a barcode to industry standards such as ANSI X3.182, ISO/IEC 15415, ISO/IEC 15416. The best barcode verifiers are accurate to ISO/IEC 15426-1 and 15426-2 standards. Verifiers will analyse how well the barcode will perform in different environments based on international standards. It will indicate where the barcode is deficient so corrective action may take place.
