Zebra DS3678-HD Barcode Scanner

• Captures high-density 1D/2D barcodes and standard barcodes
• Dual functionality — the same scanner can be used on the production line for end-to-end track and trace of materials and in the warehouse from receiving to shipping
• Ultra-rugged — can survive 10 ft./3 m drops to concrete and 7,500 tumbles
• Dual IP65/IP68 sealing built to handle extreme temperatures and conditions
• Includes Zebra’s DataCapture DNA technology platform of highly intelligent firmware, software, utilities and apps

The productivity of workers on the manufacturing plant floor depends on the quality of the scanner you put in their hands. When your workers need to capture the small and dense 1D and 2D barcodes common in electronics and medical equipment manufacturing, with the DS3600-HD Ultra Rugged scanners, you can give them the best. Instantly capture any high-density 1D or 2D barcode printed directly on product components or labels in virtually any condition—or displayed on a screen. Built for your toughest environments, the DS3600-HD is virtually indestructible, including an enhanced 10 ft./3 m drop spec to concrete and dual IP65/IP68 sealing. With DataCapture DNA, Zebra’s exclusive software ecosystem, you can simplify every stage of the scanning experience over the life of your device. The DS3600-HD—the unstoppable performance you need to maximize workforce productivity and throughput, reduce production cycle times and prevent unplanned production line downtime.

Superior Scanning on any High Density 1D/2D Barcode

Zebra’s exclusive PRZM Intelligent Imaging technology delivers first-time capture of high-density 1D and 2D barcodes printed on labels or directly on product components—including tiny and dense 3 mil codes that are barely visible to the naked eye. The DS3600-HD also captures standard printed barcodes in virtually any condition—damaged, dirty, poorly printed or under shrinkwrap. This dual functionality allows you to use the same scanner on the production line for end-to-end track and trace of materials—and in the warehouse from receiving to shipping.

Ultra-Rugged—the Most Indestructible Design in its Class

Zebra ultra-rugged scanners earned their name for a reason—you won’t find a tougher family of scanners. Ready for the world’s harshest environments, the DS3600-HD has the highest drop, tumble and sealing specifications in its class. It can survive 10 ft./3 m drops to concrete and 7,500 tumbles. With dual IP65/IP68 sealing, the DS3600-HD is dust proof, can handle the force of jetting water and be fully submerged in water. Built to withstand extreme heat, cold and humidity, the DS3600-HD can be used anywhere—indoor, outdoor and even in the freezer.

Ultra-Rugged Cradle and Charging Contacts Designed to Last

The DS3600-HD is the first scanner in its class to offer a cradle with IP65 sealing. Its industrial charging contacts withstand 250,000 insertions. And Zebra’s exclusive Connect+ Contact technology assures reliable, corrosion-free charging over the life of the scanner.

Easily Capture Label Data for Better Inventory Management

With Label Parse+, the DS3600-HD can instantly capture and parse GS1 label barcode data on items, enabling workers to easily capture a wealth of data, including expiration dates and lot number/ manufacturing location.

Read Up To 20 Barcodes with One Press of the Scan Trigger

With Multi-Code Data Formatting (MDF), the DS3600-HD can capture multiple barcodes with a single scan and transmit only the barcodes you need, in the order your application expects.

Faster Pick-List Processing

Users can easily select and capture an individual barcode from any picklist.

Flexible Feedback Modes

Mix and match the feedback modes that best fit your environment— vibration, wraparound LEDs that are easy to see from any position, a beep tone and Zebra’s Direct Decode Indicator that projects illumination on the captured barcode.

More Than 100,000 Scans on a Single Charge

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, 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 or ready for retirement

Battery and Bluetooth® Status At-A-Glance

The first-in-its-class battery ‘charge gauge’ and Bluetooth status LED make it easy to monitor battery power as well as Bluetooth connectivity.

Switch Workflows in an Instant with AutoConfig

Since scanner settings are stored in the cradle base, simply pair the DS3600-HD to a different base to automatically configure it for a new host application. For example, you can take a scanner from the manufacturing line and use it for shipping without manually changing settings

Keep Track of Your Scanners and Prevent Workflow Interruptions

With Virtual Tether, you won’t have to worry about a warehouse worker leaving a scanner behind on a pallet. Both the scanner and cradle will alert users when a scanner is taken beyond its Bluetooth range or left out of the cradle for a predefined length of time.

Eliminate Bluetooth Interference with Wi-Fi Friendly Mode

Zebra’s exclusive Wi-Fi Friendly Mode eliminates the wireless interference that Bluetooth devices can create in your Wi-Fi environment.

Instantly Connect to Your Industrial Ethernet Network

Zebra’s Network Connect for Automation delivers a seamless connection between DS3600-HD scanners and a manufacturer’s Industrial Ethernet network without the need for third-party conversion equipment. The solution eliminates vulnerability points, improves security, reduces complexity and is compatible with every Zebra 3600 Series scanner.

Identify and Correct Problem Barcodes with ScanSpeed Analytics

Only from Zebra, ScanSpeed Analytics provides detailed metrics on every barcode captured—enabling you to identify poor performing barcodes that slow down your operations.

No-Cost Tools to Meet Your Management Needs

With 123Scan, you can easily create configuration barcodes to program scanners. If your imagers are in multiple locations across the country or around the world, with Scanner Management Service (SMS), you can configure and update the firmware for any DS3600-HD device that is plugged into the host—no depot staging or user action is required.

Up-To-The-Minute Insight Into Every Aspect of Your Scanners

The logging agent’s Remote Diagnostics capabilities automate the recording of scanner asset information, health and statistics, configuration settings and barcode data—giving you the information needed for event verification, blockchain traceability, pilot site ROI generation, troubleshooting and predictive fleet-wide trend analysis
