DS3608-DP ULTRA-RUGGED SCANNER
UNSTOPPABLE PERFORMANCE FOR DIRECT PART MARKS (DPM)
Every day, workers on the manufacturing plant floor scan thousands of direct part marks required to protect product quality and meet end-to-end product traceability regulations. Their productivity depends on the quality of the scanner you put in their hands. With the DS3600-DP Ultra-Rugged scanner, you can give them the best. Get instant capture of direct part marks, plus virtually any 1D or 2D printed barcode. Built for your toughest environments, the DS3600-DP is virtually indestructible, including an enhanced 10 ft./3 m drop spec to concrete and dual IP65/IP68 sealing. With DataCapture DNA, Zebra’s exclusive software ecosystem, you can simplify every stage of the scanning experience over the life of your device. And when it comes to cordless technology, the DS3678-DP’s Zebra-only features put it in a class of its own. The DS3600-DP—the unstoppable performance you need to ensure traceability, reduce production cycle times, and prevent unplanned production-line downtime.
The same scanner can capture virtually any barcode printed on a label—including damaged, dirty, poorly printed, or under shrinkwrap. This dual functionality allows you to use the same scanner on the production line for end-to-end track and trace, and in the warehouse from receiving to shipping.
Ultra-Rugged—the Most Indestructible Design in its Class
Zebra ultra-rugged scanners earned their name for a reason—you won’t find a tougher family of scanners. Ready for the world’s harshest environments, the DS3600-DP has the highest drop, tumble and sealing specifications in its class. It can survive 10 ft./3 m drops to concrete and 7,500 tumbles. With dual IP65/IP68 sealing, the DS3600-DP is dust proof, can handle the force of jetting water and be fully submerged in water. Built to withstand extreme heat, cold and humidity, the DS3600-DP can be used anywhere—indoor, outdoor and even in the freezer.¹
Advanced Illumination System
Advanced illumination provides the multiple lighting effects required to capture marks on any type of surface—including reflective, irregular and curves as well as low and high contrast marks. The built-in diffuser provides the indirect light required to capture marks printed on very shiny and reflective surfaces. The proprietary design of the diffuser also directs additional lighting to the edges of barcodes marked on a curved surface, enhancing the image for easier decoding. Finally, a glancing direct light mode provides the bright light required to successfully read low contrast barcodes marked on any type of surface, including challenging polished materials.
Superior Scanning on DPM and Standard 1D/2D Barcodes
Comprehensive patented features and Zebra’s exclusive PRZM Intelligent Imaging technology enable the capture of literally every type of direct part mark (DPM) and printed 1D/2D barcode. DPM codes can be captured, regardless of size, surface, contrast or density—including the most challenging mark, dot peen, as well as laser etch, ink mark, chemical etch, inkjet mold, cast and thermal spray.
Eliminate Bluetooth Interference with Wi-Fi Friendly Mode
Wi-Fi Friendly Mode eliminates the wireless interference that Bluetooth devices can create in your Wi-Fi environment.
Easily Capture Label Data for Better Inventory Management
With Label Parse+, the DS3600-DP can instantly capture and parse GS1 label barcode data on items, enabling workers to easily capture a wealth of data, including expiration dates and lot number/manufacturing location.
Read Up To 20 Barcodes With One Press of the Scan Trigger
With Multi-Code Data Formatting (MDF), the DS3600-DP can capture multiple barcodes with a single scan and transmit only the barcodes you need, in the order your application expects.
Faster Pick-List Processing
Easily select and capture an individual barcode from any pick list.
Flexible Feedback Modes
Mix and match the feedback modes that best fit your environment— vibration, wraparound LEDs that are easy to see from any position, a beep tone and Zebra’s Direct Decode Indicator that projects illumination on the captured barcode.
Switch Workflows in an Instant with AutoConfig
Since scanner settings are stored in the cradle base, simply pair the DS3600-DP to a different base to automatically configure it for a new host application. For example, you can take a scanner from the manufacturing line and use it for shipping without manually changing settings.
Keep Track of Your Scanners and Prevent Workflow Interruptions
With Virtual Tether, you won’t have to worry about a warehouse worker leaving a scanner behind on a pallet. Both the scanner and cradle will alert users when a scanner is taken beyond its Bluetooth range or left out of the cradle for a predefined length of time.
