The fashion family, pocket-sized

Y1L

The Y1L is the fashion-compact 2D scanner of the Y series — the smaller-frame design unit that lab coordinators and sample runners carry instead of a drawer, with the full 2D set still in the pocket.

Textile lab with Y1L scanner checking hangtags on sample carts
Application · Factory traceability

Sample runs live on carts, not desks.

Fashion factories and textile labs move samples on carts, and the tag that identifies the sample moves with them: a hangtag, a swing label, sometimes a small QR printed on the cardboard. The Y1L is the fashion-compact 2D scanner sized to ride the cart — the full set in the smaller frame, without renaming the label system to fit a bigger gun:

  • Carry-documented samples — the compact frame travels with the cart and the sample number, so the tag check happens where the sample is, not across the room.
  • Hangtags and swing labels read — both printed 2D and the classic 1D tag formats decode at the 4 mil class; no second scanner for the older stock.
  • Stockroom continuity — the Y1L shares the family engine with the cart's office-side units, so a scan in the lab reads the same everywhere; the 2-year warranty covers the cart's life.

Y1L FAQs

No — it runs the same family imaging engine and 4 mil class as the Y1; the compact change is in the frame and footprint, which is the point of the variant.

Yes — hangtag QRs are within the 4 mil class; very small card-edge prints can be confirmed with one sample tag through the FAE team within 48h.

Standard sample in 1–3 days; a branded order under 5,000 pcs ships in 10–25 days with silk-screen and packaging finalized via the OEM program.
