Whether you are involved in automotive, aerospace, farm and fleet or other industrial manufacturing, you rely on track and trace applications to provide better control over product quality, protect consumer safety and ensure regulatory compliance. Zebra’s corded DS3608-DPA and cordless DS3678-DPA are designed to help industrial manufacturers meet these track and trace requirements, without jeopardizing “on time every time” delivery goals. With a single scanner, workers can capture virtually any direct part mark, as well as 1D/2D and wide 1D barcodes for superior versatility. The ultra-rugged design is practically indestructible — ideal for punishing environments. The scanners offer unparalleled ease of management, and with Zebra’s EA3600 Network Connect for Automation, the DS3608-DPA and DS3678-DPA connect to your Industrial Ethernet network without third party conversion equipment. The DS3608-DPA/DS3678-DPA — the unstoppable performance you need to maximize workforce productivity, ensure traceability, reduce production cycle times and prevent unplanned production line downtime.
Capture it all — from direct part marks to 1D/2D and wide 1D paper barcodes
The DS3608-DPA/DS3678-DPA can capture virtually every type of direct part mark (DPM) including laser etch, ink mark, chemical etch, inkjet mold, cast, thermal spray and dot peen. In addition, the same scanner can capture barcodes printed on labels in virtually any condition — including damaged, dirty, poorly printed or under shrinkwrap — as well as 4-inch wide 1D barcodes found on picklists, carton labels and packages. This dual functionality provides excellent value: you can use the same scanner on the production line for end-to-end track and trace as well as throughout the plant floor and warehouse.
Ultra-rugged — the most indestructible design in its class
The DS3608-DPA/DS3678-DPA is our most rugged scanner yet, with the highest drop, tumble and sealing specification in its class. The DS3608-DPA/DS3678-DPA is built to survive an 8 ft./2.4 m drop to concrete — 23 percent more durable than any other scanner in this class. The scanners operate reliably after 5,000 tumbles, simulating the real-world tumbling that occurs with a drop. Both models are dust proof, spray proof and waterproof to IP67 — they can be sprayed down with jetting water and even be submersed in water.
Advanced illumination system
Advanced illumination provides the multiple lighting effects required to capture marks on any type of surface — including reflective, irregular and curves as well as low and high contrast marks. The built-in diffuser provides the indirect light required to capture marks printed on very shiny and reflective surfaces. The proprietary design of the diffuser also directs additional lighting to the edges of barcodes marked on a curved surface, enhancing the image for easier decoding. Finally, a glancing direct light mode provides the bright light required to successfully read low contrast barcodes marked on any type of surface, including challenging polished materials.
Easy management with complimentary industry-best tools
Remotely configure scanners, upgrade firmware, format data properly for your back end and monitor PowerPrecision+ battery statistics and more with 123Scan and Scanner Management Service (SMS).
Connect to your Industrial Ethernet network without third-party converter boxes
Zebra’s Network Connect for Automation delivers a seamless connection between DS3608-DPA/DS3678-DPA scanners and a manufacturer’s Industrial Ethernet network without the need for third party conversion equipment. The solution supports a wide range of programmable logic controller (PLC) vendors, including support for EtherNet/IP for Rockwell Automation, PROFINET for Siemens, as well Modbus TCP and standard TCP/ IP. By streamlining the connection between scanners and the PLC, Network Connect eliminates vulnerability points, improves security and reduces complexity.
A Bluetooth model in a class of its own for superior cordless freedom
Bluetooth 4.0 (Low Energy) provides lightning fast wireless communication and maximum energy efficiency. Our Zebra Wi-Fi Friendly Mode eliminates the wireless interference that Bluetooth devices can create in your Wi-Fi environment. The ‘go anywhere’ rugged cradle offers superior versatility and durability. The DS3678-DPA is the only scanner in its class to offer a cradle with IP65 sealing. And its industrial charging contacts withstand 250,000 insertions. The first-in-its-class battery ‘charge gauge’ and Bluetooth status LED make it easy to monitor battery power as well as Bluetooth connectivity. The PowerPrecision+ battery delivers the ultimate in battery power and management. You get more than three times the amount of scans per charge than with competitive models in this product class — more than 100,000 scans per charge, so workers can scan more items over a longer period of time. You also get visibility into a wealth of battery health-related data, including charge cycles consumed, current battery status and a State of Health meter, which identifies if batteries are healthy and holding a full charge. Extreme temperature rating Built to handle extreme cold, heat and humidity, you can use the DS3608-DPA and DS3678-DPA anywhere — even in the freezer*. Three flexible feedback modes Mix and match the feedback modes that are ideal in your environment — vibration, red and green LEDs located in an area where they are always easy to see, plus the traditional loud beep tone.
