The DC-29 is a high-performance counting indicator designed for demanding counting and weighing tasks. Engineered with cutting-edge technology, it delivers fast, accurate, and stable results across a wide range of applications, from tiny electronic components to heavy metal parts.

 

Advanced Technology

  • 32-bit microprocessor and 24-bit A/D converter for superior precision
  • Alibi memory stores over 131,072 transactions
  • Innovative linearity compensation with a counting resolution of 1.2 million
  • Flexible operation parameters and adjustable A/D conversion speed

 

Expandability

Connect an optional secondary platform to transform the DC-29, enabling two platforms to function as three weighing options with a simple key press:

  • Platform 1
  • Platform 2
  • Platform 1 + 2 (combined)

 

Efficiency and Error Reduction

  • Stores settings for hundreds of products, from small items like candies to bulk items like screws
  • Recalls detailed settings (platform, customer, product codes, unit weight, limits, tare actions, date format and expiry date) with just four key presses
  • Full numeric keyboard ensures intuitive operation
  • Barcode scanner compatibility enables fast, error-free data entry (operator ID, product/customer codes, and key commands)
  • Seamlessly integrates with computers, ticket/label printers, barcode/RFID readers, remote displays, ERP systems, and smart devices

 

Clear Display

A large LCD with adjustable tri-color backlight ensures high visibility, even in dim or dark environments, displaying:

  • Weight
  • Unit weight
  • Piece count
  • Operation status and check results

 

Streamlined Operations

  • Memorizes settings to minimize manual input and human error adapts quickly to different products and workflows
  • Adapts quickly to different products and workflows

 

Data Management

  • Alibi memory securely stores transaction data in real-time
  • Alibi Management Report retrieval by day, month, period, specific record(s), or last
  • Analyze productivity (by employee, machine, plant, customer, or product) with yield rates via a few clicks on a PC
