New auto feed OMR makes data collection fast and accurate
The new ES2800
optical mark reader (OMR) from Kendata Peripherals scans
information directly from forms into a computer at speeds of
up to 2800 pages per hour, providing a level of accuracy and
efficiency unattainable through conventional keyboard data entry.
Productivity is further enhanced by the ES2800's built-in
150-sheet capacity automatic document feeder and a special output
mechanism that allows forms to be sorted to different locations
during the scanning process, according to operator-defined criteria.
Providing an ideal means of speeding up data collection in
a wide variety of applications, the ES2800 is inherently accurate
because it eliminates key entry errors, and this accuracy is
further enhanced by continuous, automatic calibration of the
read heads and by the use of adjustable mark sensitivity levels.
Designed for maximum ease of use, the new OMR incorporates
features such as an LCD panel displaying the current status
of a scanning job, built-in intelligence allowing automatic
translation of mark information into data compatible with application
programs, and the ability to store and recall form definitions
even when the unit has been switched off and on again.
The ES2800 can read form sizes from 5.7 x 15.2cm to 21.6 x
35.6cm, printed on paper ranging in weight from 90 to 148gsm.
The unit itself has overall dimensions of 79 x 36 x 15cm and
weighs 7.7kg.
Optional facilities include twin read heads to enable the OMR
to read double-sided forms in a single pass, a built-in printer
for printing text or serial numbers on forms for easy identification,
a bar code read head, and menu-driven utility software allowing
the user to create form definitions.
