DS3600-DP Ultra-Rugged Scanner

Performs In Your Toughest Environments

Superior Scanning on DPM and Standard 1D/2D Barcodes

Comprehensive patented features and Zebra’s exclusive PRZM Intelligent Imaging technology enable the capture of literally every type of direct part mark (DPM) and printed 1D/2D barcode. DPM codes can be captured, regardless of size, surface, contrast or density—including the most challenging mark, dot peen, as well as laser etch, ink mark, chemical etch, inkjet mold, cast and thermal spray.

The same scanner can capture virtually any barcode printed on a label—including 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, 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-DP 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-DP 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-DP can be used anywhere—indoor, outdoor and even in the freezer.¹

Advanced Illumination System

Advanced illumination provides the multiple lighting effects required to capture marks on any type of surface—including reflective, irregular and curves as well as low and high contrast marks. The built-in diffuser provides the indirect light required to capture marks printed on very shiny and reflective surfaces. The proprietary design of the diffuser also directs additional lighting to the edges of barcodes marked on a curved surface, enhancing the image for easier decoding. Finally, a glancing direct light mode provides the bright light required to successfully read low contrast barcodes marked on any type of surface, including challenging polished materials.

Easily Capture Label Data for Better Inventory Management

With Label Parse+, the DS3600-DP 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-DP 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

Easily select and capture an individual barcode from any pick list.

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.

Superior Cordless Technology

Ultra-Rugged Cradle and Charging Contacts Designed to Last

The DS3600-DP 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.

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-DP 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

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

Unrivaled Manageability

Instantly Connect to Your Industrial Ethernet Network

Zebra’s Network Connect for Automation delivers a seamless connection between DS3600-DP 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-DP 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.
