Longmont, Colo.—July 9, 2012—Barcode verification solutions provider Webscan Inc.’s TruCheck 2D UV verifies invisible 2D bar codes that are visible only under UV light.

The new barcode verifier incorporates UV wavelength LEDs and a UV sensitive CCD camera and is the first commercially available hand-held 2D barcode verifier for invisible barcodes used in security applications such as track and trace.

“The TruCheck 2D UV empowers printers to verify the readability of invisible bar codes and diagnose printing issues like never before,” said Glenn Spitz, President, Webscan. “From anti-counterfeiting and other security applications to simply printing a code that does not disturb the graphics on a package, invisible barcodes are gaining more and more interest across several industries.”

The TruCheck 2D UV is operated by Webscan’s easy-to-use software interface which can verify 1D (linear) and two dimensional (2D) bar codes. Detailed reports are generated and stored automatically.
