Axicon claims first with ISO grade on-line verifier

Axicon has developed an ANSI/ISO/CEN on-line version of its  barcode verification system. The global launch of the on-line range will take place on at Labelexpo Americas 2004 in September.
The on-line system has been designed for use with any of the three Axicon read-heads. Users will have the ability to use the verifier as both an on-line and an off-line verifier.
Specifically targeting the thermal printing market, the on-line system gives the user the ability to check every barcode printed, creating a full audit trail. Traceability of this type has always been a pre-requisite in the world of pharmaceuticals and is now frequently demanded by major retailers.
In order to create the audit trail, the results of each individual verification scan are saved in spreadsheet form. In addition to this, the unique Axicon scan file can be saved, allowing for an in depth analysis of individual scans. The software can be set to record either every scan or just those that fail.
