W2
The W2 is the W-series industrial 2D scanner — the rugged family-starter carrying the full 2D set inside a housing designed for bays, docks and conveyor balconies where a dropped gun is a budget line, not an incident.

Family-class values shown — exact per-model figures in the datasheet; the FAE team grades your bay's drop profile within 48h.
The bay is not a desk; stop buying desk hardware.
Industrial environments kill commercial scanners slowly and measure the damage in downtime. Warehouse teams usually find this out the hard way — a bay gun resting on a pallet, a rack bracket fed daily, and a return rate nobody budgets for. The W2 is what the W-series was built to answer: the same full 2D set, inside a shell that treats gravity as a design input:
- Reads into the pallet stack — full 2D coverage means the DataMatrix on newer pallet wraps decodes next to the Code 128 on the rack row labels at the same trigger.
- Housing over elegance — the industrial shell resists the daily reality of a bay: dust, vibration, the drop at the dock's edge; the per-model rating is in the datasheet so you know the limit, not the brochure.
- Warranty that matches the site — 2 years on a bay gun is the honest answer to a site that measures tool life in seasons, and MOQ 1 pc keeps a single-bay pilot at zero risk.
W2 FAQs
The per-model drop and ingress class are listed in the datasheet — we do not paraphrase them into a single number here; what matters is that the W-series family is the tier built to have a drop rating at all.
The industrial shell and temperature class absorb dust and the temperature swings of covered bays; full outdoors is the W6/W12 position — the FAE team will place your site honestly.
Yes — MOQ 1 pc, sample in 1–3 days; run it on the busiest bay for two weeks and the bay crew will write the rest of the order themselves.
