The DS3600‑HD is engineered to reliably capture even ultra‑small, high‑density barcodes—as small as approximately 3 mil—across labels or directly on components. Its PRZM Intelligent Imaging technology ensures first‑pass capture, even under harsh conditions like shrinkwrap, low-contrast printing, damage, or dirt. It also handles standard-density barcodes for full-spectrum traceability—from production lines to shipping bays.
Built ultra‑rugged: survives 10 ft (3 m) drops to concrete, withstands 7,500 tumbles, and features dual IP65/IP68 sealing against dust, water jets, and submersion. It operates across extreme temperature and humidity ranges, including freezer environments.
The scanner includes Zebra’s rugged cradle with IP65 sealing and industrial-grade Connect+ charging contacts rated for over 250,000 insertions.
Full enterprise manageability is offered via Zebra’s DataCapture DNA platform, with tools such as Label Parse+ (GS1 barcode parsing), Multi‑Code Data Formatting (MDF), AutoConfig, Virtual Tether, Wi‑Fi Friendly Mode, ScanSpeed Analytics, remote diagnostics, and a range of feedback modes including vibration, wraparound LEDs, beep tones, and Direct Decode Indicator. The cordless models deliver over 100,000 scans per charge.
