5 best barcode scanners with AliExpress

After the appearance of self-service stores, there was a need for devices for the rapid identification of goods. Marking with barcodes turned out to be the most convenient. To read the information embedded in the barcode, you need a special scanner. After identifying the code, it transmits data to a computer, cash register or terminal. The principle of operation of the equipment is based on the different ability of black and white symbols to reflect light.

The work of the barcode scanner is influenced by three components:

1. Light source;
2. light receiver;
3. converter.

By type of execution, scanners can be manual, stationary and embedded. They connect to the device in different ways. There are such interfaces for connection: RS-232 (COM-port), keyboard break and USB. The first two are less and less common on AliExpress. Wired scanners with USB interface and wireless BlueTooth devices are more in demand. Since the barcode is linear and two-dimensional, respectively, the scanning devices are selected based on more from this parameter.

By type of reading elements, scanners are divided into:

• LED (manual contact) - the cheapest, reliable, single-plane, decode 1D symbols, have a small reading range;
• laser - read the code from a large distance, decode the symbols of 1D, can be single-plane and multi-plane, sensitive to falls;
• Photo scanners are fast, reliable, have a long reading range, are multi-plane, resistant to damage, read various symbols (1D, composite PDF 417 and matrix QR).

When choosing a model, one should also look at such characteristics as: distance and width of reading, minimum strip of illumination and perception of bar code contrast, security, operating temperature, weight and dimensions of the scanner.
