W1
The W1 is the 1D high-speed CCD scanner of the W series — a high-cadence red-line CCD that reads conveyor-fed 1D labels faster than hand-operated units settle, for the feeding stations of a wholesale line.

The feeding aisle is the first store the customer never sees.
Unmanned retail's supply is only as clean as its feed line: cartons arrive on a belt, and someone's hand must read every label before the shelf decides. That hand is the bottleneck — and a standard scanner forces the hand to pause for each read. The W1's high-speed CCD line keeps up with the belt rhythm instead:
- Cadence the belt can live with — consecutive reads without settle delay across the fast 1D labels most incoming cartons carry.
- Red light for the crates and the shade — the high-speed CCD reads shelf-shadowed and slightly scuffed labels where a slower laser line burns a fraction of a second it doesn't have.
- One station, learned once — USB HID to the receiving PC, the same unit for re-tickets and returns; the 2-year warranty matches the belt's schedule, not yours.
Same bracket, same line
W1 FAQs
The high-speed CCD line is designed for consecutive at-feed reads — the honest answer is belt-speed dependent, and the FAE team measures your actual cadence with one sample before you commit the station.
Wearables and mirror assemblies drift at high cadence; a solid-state CCD line is the engineering choice for continuous feed work, and it reads scuffed labels better at close range.
The W1 is a handheld-bodied unit in this configuration; fully fixed solutions are the X-series modules — the FAE team classifies your station for one or the other.
Let an engineer verify your W1 feed stations.
