Verification
L-Tron is the leading provider of bar code symbol verifiers. While bar code scanning is just machine recognition of encoded data, verification is an analysis of the encoding of that data. Bar code verification conveys virtually everything about how a specific barcode, as well as those printed in the same lot, should perform with a wide range of scanning equipment. With a bar code verifier, users are able to quickly perform pass/fail testing of dimensional and format quality parameters like average bar deviation, wide-to-narrow ratios, encodation, and ISO/IEC decodability. Verification is so critical that National and International Standards organizations have created guidelines and methodologies to measure bar code symbol print quality.
Verification is the process of:
- Verifying a bar code against industry application and bar code standards
- Testing a bar code symbol to determine its standard's traceable quality
- Ensuring correct data structure and content
- Visually inspecting the code to ensure proper layout
L-Tron recognizes that verification is more than the bottom line. In fact, printed bar codes on a company's products or customer packaging make a statement about what quality means to that particular company. Consequently, it is vital to ensure that every bar code symbol has high quality and that its encoded data is accurate and structured correctly. More and more companies are turning to L-Tron to improve productivity and reduce cost using bar code verifiers.
