Accu-Sort(R) AV6010 Raises the Bar for Camera-based Auto ID

November 29, 2007

    PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 29 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- 

    Accu-Sort Systems, Inc., a world leader in industrial
high-speed camera-based identification solutions, today
announced the launch of the AV6010 Long Range Camera
System.  Designed to deliver the easiest installation,
highest reliability and best performance for 1D and 2D bar
code reading as well as OCR and Video Coding Applications,
the AV6010 sets a new standard in the industry for a fully
integrated camera-based scanning solution. 

    The latest addition to the Accu-Vision(R) product line,
the AV6010 camera system will serve as the new technology
platform for future Accu-Sort products, and it offers
several industry firsts. The system cuts installation time
an estimated 70 percent over comparable systems, by using a
unique Auto Configuration Wizard and by integrating camera,
illumination, decoder, and power supplies into a single
unit. A unique internal network eliminates downtime caused
by camera failure, and a robust design raises mean time
between failure (MTBF) to an unprecedented level of
reliability. What's more, the AV6010 simplifies maintenance
with a novel modular design that enables plug-and-play
component replacement.

    Ideal for high-speed parcel sortation, the AV6010 is
also suited for warehouse and distribution center
applications, where previously a high-end camera-based
solution may have been too complex.

    The new AV6010 camera system delivers an unprecedented
75,000 hours MTBF.  Yet it only takes 10 hours to install a
six-sided tunnel along with complete commissioning -- a 70
percent reduction in time when compared to installations of
comparable systems.  Such breakthrough statistics are based
on an exclusive design, one in which all components --
camera, illumination, decoder, and power supplies -- are
integrated into one small-sized unit that comes with a
single HTML user interface. 

    Unlike any other camera sortation system, each major
component of the AV6010 is linked via an internal Ethernet
network. No single camera can cause system-wide failure
because its functionality can be assumed by any one of the
other cameras. 

    Each major AV6010 component also operates as a field
replaceable module.  This "plug and play" design
sets another industry standard: unequalled ease of
maintenance and repair.  Unlike traditional camera systems,
there is no need to recalibrate and realign when a component
fails.  The AV6010's revolutionary modular design allows any
component to be replaced easily and independently.
