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.

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.
Same bracket, same line
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.
