SICK Optics CLV430
Compact but Powerful

The CLV 430/440’s compact size
allows it to fit into any application,
even ones in tight spaces. The
strong performance characteristics
of these scanners are not limited
by their size; SMART technology
(SICK’s Modular Advanced
Recognition Technology) enables
the scanner to read bar codes that
could not be read by other scanners.
The CLV 430/440 processes complete bar code images before decoding. This translates to a much higher percentage of successful reads, even with bar codes presented at high tilt angles, bar codes damaged by tearing, smearing or splotches, or bar codes partially idden from the scanner. The CLV 430 is a Fixed Focus scanner, while the CLV 440 has Dynamic Focus Control.
Dynamic Focus Control allows the CLV 440 to ccommodate a large depth of field by dynamically adjusting its focus position to the object distance, making the CLV 440 ideal for decoding bar codes on objects of different heights. The CLV 430/440 has a userselectable scan rate of 300 to 800 Hz at a reading range of 2 to 32 in (51 to 800 mm).
All parameters of
the CLV 430/440, including
minimum reading distance, bar code resolution, scan frequency,
bar code label specifications and
data format, are selectable via
included Windows™-based CLV
Setup Software.
The CLV430/440 is especially
suited to applications such as
material handling, print and apply
verification, product label
verification, automated medical
instrumentation, automotive
assembly, electronic circuit board
identification and packaging.
