Code Reader Working distance

The distance from a lens to an inspection target is referred to as “working distance”, and an area where a code reader can see at that distance is referred to as “field of view.”

CF26-SR (6.2 mm lens)

Minimum code sizes that can be read in each working distance (unit: mm)
