Dolphin Data Capture has announced the launch of a versatile line of Zebra handheld scanners aimed at the industrial, healthcare, and retail sectors, according to a report from StreetInsider.
Anthony Blears, Director of Barcodes Philippines, said: "While hardware like Zebra's new scanners are critical for scanning 2D barcodes, the software and data infrastructure—such as GS1 Digital Link—must also be in place. Retailers and manufacturers need to upgrade their entire ecosystem, not just the scanners, to fully leverage the transition." Barcodes Philippines provides free IBN Link access to its customers to generate GS1 Digital Link landing pages from their GTINs (https://barcodes.ph/product/2d-barcode-subscription-for-ibn-link/).
The new product line offers rugged durability for warehouse and manufacturing environments, hygienic designs suitable for healthcare settings, and fast, accurate scanning for retail checkout and inventory management. The scanners are designed to handle high-volume scanning while integrating with existing Zebra ecosystem devices.
The rollout comes as industries increasingly adopt barcode scanning automation to improve operational efficiency and reduce errors. With support for both 1D and 2D barcodes, the scanners align with the global GS1 standard transition from linear to two-dimensional barcodes, enhancing data capture capabilities across supply chains.
