DS3600‑XR


The DS3600‑XR is an ultra‑rugged barcode scanner designed for extended-range scanning of 1D, 2D, and Digimarc codes. It features a high‑visibility green laser aimer and is built to withstand extreme industrial environments with best‑in‑class durability. It delivers superior scan range and precision while being lighter than prior XR-generation models.

The DS3600‑XR raises the bar for extended‑range scanning performance, building on the DS3600‑ER’s rugged design while offering:

  • Class-leading scan range: Reads barcodes from as close as 2 inches (5 cm) up to over 105 feet (32 m), surpassing competing models by more than 25%.

  • Improved visibility: A bright green laser aimer with crosshair overlay offers up to 7× visibility compared to a red dot, enhancing aiming in various lighting conditions, both indoors and outdoors.

  • Ultra‑rugged construction: Withstands drops up to 10 feet (3 m) to concrete, survives 7,500 tumbles, and features dual IP65/IP68 sealing to resist dust, water spray, and submersion. It’s built to endure extreme temperatures, humidity, and even freezer environments.

  • Advanced scanning technology: PRZM Intelligent Imaging and IntelliFocus™ deliver reliable reading of barcodes in challenging conditions—damaged, poorly printed, dense, reflective, or under shrinkwrap.

  • Enterprise-grade manageability: Powered by Zebra’s DataCapture DNA platform, offering firmware, software utilities, and tools like Label Parse+ (for GS1 label data capture) and Multi‑Code Data Formatting (MDF) to streamline workflows.

  • Flexible feedback and configuration: Choose from vibration, wraparound LEDs, beep tones, and Zebra’s Direct Decode Indicator. Cordless models include AutoConfig, Virtual Tether alerting when out of Bluetooth range or left off-cradle.
