CipherLab 2506
DPM Scanner

Engineered for decoding the most challenging direct part markings, the CipherLab 2506 DPM Scanner delivers high accuracy, lightweight ergonomics, and rapid plug-and-play deployment. With advanced 1.3MP imaging, robust industrial protection, and ESD-safe construction, it ensures reliable traceability across demanding production and repair environments.

Key Features

Superior Direct Part Mark (DPM) Decoding

The 2506 DPM Scanner uses a 1.3MP CMOS sensor to decode low-contrast and complex DPM marks, including laser-etched and dot-peen codes. It maintains reliable performance on 3 mil 1D and 5 mil 2D barcodes even at 20 percent PCS, supporting strict traceability requirements in production and repair workflows.

Ergonomic and Lightweight for High Volume Scanning

Weighing only 166 grams, the 2506 is substantially lighter than conventional industrial scanners. Its balanced design supports extended, repetitive scanning with reduced fatigue. Operators benefit from a comfortable grip suited for fast-paced manufacturing lines.

ESD-Protected Housing for Electronics Workflows

The CipherLab 2506 DPM scanner features specialized ESD-safe construction, making it suitable for static-sensitive assembly environments. This ensures safe workflow integration in electronics manufacturing and repair operations.

Durable Build for Industrial Use

With an IP54 rating and 1.5 meter drop resistance, the 2506 withstands dust, splashes, and accidental impacts. Its rugged build ensures long-term performance in assembly stations, repair benches, and component handling zones.

Seamless Plug-and-Play Connectivity

The scanner supports USB and RS232 plug-and-play interfaces for immediate workstation integration with no complex configuration. An optional adjustable stand further enables flexible hands-free scanning.
