X3
The X3 is the compact fixed module of the X series — a narrower fixed-mount 2D engine for the fixtures and dispensary drawers where every millimeter of faceplate is engineered, with the full 2D set still intact.

A fixture's faceplate gets one chance at a scan point.
Dispensary workstations are engineered cabinets first — the drawer, the log, and a single clear scan window that everything runs through. The X3 is the compact fixed module for that window: full 2D set behind a compact faceplate, mounted once, hands free so the pharmacist's hands stay on the tray:
- Scan window, always on — the compact module sits ready at the drawer station, so verification happens in the pass-through motion instead of the turnaround.
- Label formats of a real pharmacy — the EAN on retail packs and the small matrix on serialized stock both decode at the same window; a hand scanner would require the same family set anyway.
- Built into your cabinet, not your workflow — the mounting drawings and the free SDK make cabinet integration a designed step; the 2-year warranty covers the fixture's sensor, which is what a cabinet OEM actually needs from us.
Same bracket, same line
X3 FAQs
The compact form is designed for narrow faceplate geometry; send your cutout drawing and the FAE team answers fit or no-fit within 48h, honestly, before any order.
Yes, pharma serialization matrices are in the engine's 4 mil class; the pass-through window checks best against your exact pack set — one sample confirms it in the 48h FAE loop.
Single units ship in 1–3 days and OEM batches under 5,000 pcs in 10–25 days; bracket drawings and the dev SDK ship free with every sample.
