1D/28D code readers are industrial barcode scanning devices, typically associated with brands like Cognex, Zebra Technologies, or Honeywell, which are leading companies in the automation and identification technology sector. These readers are widely used in manufacturing, logistics, and retail for tracking and inventory management. While '1D/28D' isn't a specific brand, it refers to 1D (linear) and 2D (matrix) barcode scanning capabilities. Major manufacturers like Cognex (USA), Zebra Technologies (USA), and Datalogic (Italy) produce these devices, offering solutions for high-speed, accurate data capture in harsh industrial environments. Their products range from handheld scanners to fixed-mount readers, serving industries requiring precise asset tracking and process automation.
