Barcode · Handheld 2D Voice
Reads the matrix, speaks the result

V8

The V8 is the voice 2D imager of the V series — the imaging gun that announces each valid read out loud, for stations where an operator's hands and eyes are busy with the part, not the paper.

QC bench with V8 imager announcing product scans while hands sample parts
Application · Factory traceability

Two hands on the part, both eyes down the line.

Sampling a part takes two hands: one holds the sample, the other the gun — yet somebody also has to verify the read. The V8 decides that question by voice: the unit announces each valid scan while the operator's eyes stay on the part, which at a sampling bench is where the real error rates are generated:

  • Vocal verdict keeps the rhythm — announced accepted/retry cues remove the screen-check pause from each sample, so a QC bench gains its minutes back one read at a time.
  • Matrix gets the same treatment — the DataMatrix on taped and printed parts reads and speaks through the same trigger; no second device for the newer markings.
  • Bench-side audit, still paper-free — RS232 output posts the samples in sequence, and the voice set in the free SDK matches the bench vocabulary your inspectors already use.

V8 FAQs

Configurable — speech, tones or both are available per program; the free SDK and the 48h FAE line set the mixture your bench finds least noisy.

Yes, the voice set is program-configured; a sampling bench can announce part class, batch or verdict — the FAE team sets it for your labels against one sample part.

The feedback channel is speaker-ported for counter and bench distance; for halls over that noise floor, confirm placement with the FAE — sometimes a second unit's tones work better than loud speech.
