STAR-System Solution

> > > > RF Narrow Band Solution

The Datalogic STAR-System™ RF Narrow Band Solution for Mobile Applications brings one of the widest range of wireless data capture devices into a business while taking advantage of the most interesting RF Narrow Band Solution for mobile applications. Many processes in the Distribution & Retail as well as the Manufacturing industry (such as Inventory, Picking, Shipping/Receiving, etc.) require data collection operations to supply/receive information to/from the ERP/WMS system. This data should be provided to the information system automatically and in real-time to assure the best accuracy, precision and efficiency, using a low-money investment. Datalogic STAR-System™ takes advantage of the most advanced Datalogic automatic data capture devices to provide a RF Narrow Band Solution featuring total mobility, real-time communication and affordability comparable to wired applications. Free from cable constraint and entanglement, many time consuming activities can now be executed quickly and directly on field exploiting the distinctive features of pocket-sized pen shaped and hand-held wireless terminals, as well as gun shaped mobile devices, to read linear and PDF stacked codes and offer instinctive and distance reading.

Datalogic STAR-System™ offers scalable solutions to solve both simple applications and complex projects: taking advantage of its unique seamless active roaming capability even large plants requiring contiguous/non-contiguous large area coverage, or warehouses needing to overcome physical limits given by concrete walls, firewalls or metal shelving can profit from the Datalogic STAR-System™’s impressive coverage capability. A wide range of mobile devices, an incredible price/performance ratio and quick return on investments are the key features of the Datalogic STAR-System™: most returns on investment in RF Narrow Band Solutions are within one year due to distinct economic and business benefits such as productivity improvement, lower costs and a substantial competitive advantage for the company.
