Description

The Newland WD2 is a hands-free wearable scanner for picking, packing and sorting. It clips into an integrated trigger strap worn between thumb and forefinger, so operators scan with a light thumb press and never have to put a scanner down to lift a box.

It pairs over Bluetooth 5.0 with Newland and third-party Android devices and PCs, sending data straight into your warehouse or retail application.

Comfortable hands-free scanning

The trigger strap comes in two sizes and in left- and right-handed versions, and the large size fits over thicker gloves for cold or heavy-duty work. A magnetic quick-click dock and securing strap hold the scanner firmly until the user removes it.

Precise 2D scanning

A 1280 x 800 CMOS imager reads 1D and 2D codes on labels and screens. Acuscan uses the laser cross aimer so only the targeted barcode is decoded, which avoids mis-picks on crowded labels. A mid-range (MR) version reads larger codes from further away.

Built for long shifts

The 670 mAh battery provides about 10 hours of continuous operation and recharges in under two hours. Up to four charging cradles can be daisy-chained into a multi-charging station, and the IP65 housing survives 1.5 m drops.

Features

Outstanding Performance

Equipped with Newlands 2D Megapixel scanning technology, the WD2 can effortlessly capture high-density, high volume and distorted barcodes printed on a wide range of materials. The mid-range version can capture codes from further away than normal and scan a wide variety of barcodes that standard range scanners may struggle with.

Taking careful aim

The Standard range uses a red aiming crosshair design that enables the use of Acuscan for precision scanning on smaller codes. Even when codes are grouped close together, Acuscan enables workers to set their sights with confidence for picking the exact item they need. The mid-range version uses a single red dot that can be seen from a greater distance for pin-pointing larger, isolated codes.

Daisy Chain charging

The WD2 has a compact two-bay charging station powered via a USB-C cable or a multi-region PSU. The cradle has fixing points for mounting, and the quick click docking magnets keep the WD2 securely in place even if mounted vertically. The cradles can be linked together to create a 4, 6, 8 or 10 bay multi dock cradle, optimized to 100% charging efficiently via a single PSU.

Hands-free working

The WD2 connects to an Electronic Hand Strap with an integrated scan trigger comfortably positioned between thumb and forefinger. It is available for both right- and left-handed operators and comes in two sizes to cater to small/medium and large hands. The large strap will also fit over thicker gloves for cold or heavy-duty applications. The scanner will stay secure with a quick click docking magnet and additional securing strap until the operator wants to remove it. The ergonomics and lightweight make it perfect for long-sustained scanning applications where “two hands are better than one.”

Stable wireless communication

The WD2 uses a strong anti-interference Bluetooth 5.0 technology. When used with the WD1 Android wrist-mounted solution, the WD2 can be directly paired by scanning an onscreen 2D barcode.
