Challenge
An e-commerce logistics company was experiencing delays in its warehouse collection process due to the performance of crossbelt conveyors that moved shipments at speeds of up to 3 meters per second.
Link
One of the key features of the AV7000 that has helped improve warehouse processes is its image analysis capability. With this solution, the company was able to monitor and analyze in real time the movement of shipments on the conveyor belt, making it possible to quickly detect possible problems, such as stopped shipments or damage to packages.
In addition, the company decided to use the WebSentinel solution, which is part of the Datalogic AV7000 platform. WebSentinel is an advanced data analysis tool that allows you to monitor process performance, identify areas that need optimization, and generate reports and statistics.

Integration of the camera with OCR and barcode reading has enabled comprehensive inspection of label contents, ensuring compliance with industry regulations and production standards.
Datalogic Matrix 320X - automatic system for reading codes from bulk packages on a pallet.
In the example described here, we present a system consisting of 16 Datalogic Matrix 320X readers, mounted on a rectangular-shaped frame.
Advantages of the Matrix 320X reader
Case study - a case study
The implementation of an automated system for reading codes from palletized packaging using Datalogic Matrix 320 readers has brought significant benefits to the food manufacturer.
Thanks to the high reading performance and precise operation of the readers, the company has achieved a significant improvement in the efficiency of the product identification process at the warehouse receiving stage.
The automatic transfer of the read data to the WMS system made it possible to quickly update inventory information and monitor the flow of goods in the warehouse on an ongoing basis. In addition, automatic generation of bulk labels based on the read data allowed streamlining the process of product labeling, while minimizing the risk of errors.
Datalogic ATR - automatic baggage identification system in airport automation.
For many years we have been involved in the implementation of automatic baggage identification systems ATR (Automatic Tag Reading). The solution enables automated sorting of suitcases in airport baggage handling systems.
Datalogic ATR allows you to meet the requirements of the most demanding airport applications. This system makes it possible to read the information contained on the label without the need for baggage detention or operator intervention in the process. The essence of the system’s operation is to read the barcode regardless of its location on the luggage.
This is made possible by building a tunnel of Datalogic DS8110 and DX8210 laser devices. Proper installation of the readers and the use of patented technologies such as ACR™ (advanced code reconstruction system) and PackTrack™ (code-to-product assignment system), ensure maintenance-free operation, high reading level and high speed. The system’s performance meets the requirements of the recommended IATA 1740a practice.
Feedback from the ATR can be sent to customer systems via serial communication or using other available industrial data transmission protocols.
Types of ATR systems
Depending on the purpose of the Datalogic ATR in the baggage handling system, it comes in the following options:
- ATR 360° – reading from 6 sides (front, back, up, down, right, left), typical application: installation on conveyor belts.
- ATR 270° – reading from 5 sides (front, back, top, right, left), typical application: mounting on tilt¬-tray sorters.
- ATR 90° – reading from 1 side (bottom), typical application: installation on sorter inlet lines.
As an added benefit, the ATR can be linked to Datalogic’s WebSentinel™ Plus server software for viewing, status control, statistics, and aggregating data from all reading points in a given system.
Case study - a case study
Deployments in the airport industry require the highest system performance, very high efficiency and reliability.
In the described deployment, different types of ATRs were used. A360° AT R was installed in front of hazardous and prohibited material detectors.
ATR 270° was installed on an automatic tilt-tray sorter along with ATR 90° stations on the sorter’s inlet lines.
Support the order picking process using warehouse automation components .
Based on our years of experience, we implement innovative warehouse automation solutions to support order picking processes prior to shipment to the customer.
Automated systems based on reading 1D, 2D codes or RFID technology, provide assurance of the correct contents of a given order, reduce the possibility of human error, and lead to resource savings. Such solutions increase the efficiency of the operation of the entire automation system, as well as improve the quality of process control.
An additional advantage is the ability to expand the system’s functionality with Datalogic WebSentinel™ Plus server software. The package allows viewing, status control, statistics, and also aggregates data from all reading points in a given system. The system can also be expanded by using Datalogic DM3610 dimensioning devices. This configuration is able to provide the dimensions of a given product “on the fly,” without having to stop the line.
Solutions of this type are used at the end of production lines, warehouse systems or e-commerce customers, among others.
Case study - a case study
In order to increase the efficiency of the system and meet the ever-increasing demands of end customers, our client decided to invest in installing a scanning gateway consisting of three Datalogic DX8210 devices.
The implemented configuration allowed us to cover all the surfaces on which the barcode is placed, so we could guarantee a high level of reading, without having to position the packages.
Products from the finished product warehouse are transported by a conveyor system to the automatic sorter area , where a set of Datalogic scanners has been installed.
As the product passes through the reading field, the code is recognized and sent to the host system, which gives the shipment the appropriate destination. The statistics available in real time allow efficient monitoring of the performance of the release area.
The components of a given order are routed to a specific drop-off and are then packed by operators into bulk packages.
