Datalogic PowerScan PD9630-DPX Direct Part Marking USB/RS-232 multi-interface - stregkodescanner

In automotive assembly plants and aerospace manufacturing, traceability of directly marked components is critical. The Datalogic PowerScan PD9630-DPX is a rugged industrial handheld scanner that reliably decodes 2D codes etched, peened, or printed directly on metal, plastic, and other challenging surfaces. With its multi-interface capability, it connects via USB, RS-232, or keyboard wedge, making it a versatile choice for production lines, quality control stations, and logistics operations.

Key specifications

• 2D area imager with Direct Part Marking (DPM) decoding: reads dot peen, laser etch, inkjet, chemical etch, cast, and molded codes
• Connectivity: USB, RS-232, and keyboard wedge multi-interface
• Durability: IP65-rated housing, IP67-rated trigger, withstands 2.5 m drops onto concrete
• Operating temperature: -20 to 50 °C (-4 to 122 °F)
• Motion tolerance: up to 3 m/s (118 in/s) for fast scanning
• Feedback: beeper, Datalogic 'Green Spot' good-read indicator, and LED
• Illumination: white LED; aiming: red LED
• Minimum print contrast: 15% for reliable reading of low-contrast marks
• Power: host powered or external power supply (not included)
• Color: yellow and black industrial design

Why choose it

The PD9630-DPX excels in environments where standard barcode scanners fail. Its DPM decoding algorithms are optimized for low-contrast, damaged, or reflective marks, ensuring high first-pass read rates. The rugged construction and IP65/IP67 ratings protect against dust, moisture, and repeated drops, reducing downtime and maintenance costs. Multi-interface connectivity simplifies integration into existing systems, whether you use USB on a workstation, RS-232 on a legacy terminal, or keyboard wedge for quick plug-and-play.

Ideal use cases

• Automotive and aerospace part traceability
• Electronics manufacturing for PCB and component tracking
• Metal fabrication and machining operations
• Warehouse and distribution center scanning of DPM-labeled items
• Quality assurance and inspection stations

Good to know

The scanner is host-powered via USB, but for RS-232 or keyboard wedge connections, an external power supply may be required (sold separately). It includes a quick start guide, and cables are available depending on the interface chosen. The yellow and black color scheme enhances visibility in industrial settings. The IP67-rated trigger ensures reliable operation even after exposure to water or cleaning agents.
