Keyence BL-601

Keyence BL-601 ultra compact bar code scanners are half the size of standard readers, measuring just 31 x 40 x 21 mm. The BL601 measures just 1/2 the size of conventional models with twice the range.

Using Keyence original AGC (Auto Gain Control/SRC=Specular Reflection Cancel) circuits for advanced, high speed performance, the BL 601 offers excellent reading depth and angle characteristics. In addition, the reader includes built-in SRC circuits which greatly reduce the effects of extraneous reflected light for more reliable and stable reading.

The BL601 series are the first barcode readers with a built-in PMI function for monitoring and reporting reading performance during operation. By referring to the PMI information, it is possible to quickly detect potential reading error problems.

PMI offers a convenient tool for acquiring valuable maintenance information, and for investigating the causes of reading errors.
