The Zebra Lightning-Strong 1D Ultra-Rugged Scanner (LI3678 series) is a cordless, enterprise-grade handheld barcode reader engineered for high-throughput industrial, warehouse, manufacturing and field operations. Designed around a robust 1D linear imager, it delivers fast, reliable capture of 1D barcodes on labels or screens—even when codes are damaged, dirty or poorly printed—while reducing downtime through ultra-rugged construction and advanced sealing. Cordless Bluetooth connectivity, multi-interface support and long-lasting PowerPrecision+ battery options enable flexible deployment and extended shifts. With IP67 ingress protection, strong drop and tumble resistance, clear multi-mode feedback and kit options that include cradles and power supplies, the LI3678 family is built to keep teams productive in demanding environments.
Key Features
- Ultra-rugged durability: IP67 sealing, high drop resistance and 5,000-tumble durability minimize failures in harsh industrial and outdoor conditions.
- Reliable 1D capture: Linear imager optimized for rapid reads of 1D symbologies on labels or screens, including damaged or poorly printed codes.
- Cordless mobility: Bluetooth 4.0 (Low Energy) wireless operation enables untethered scanning across warehouses, aisles and field workflows.
- Flexible connectivity: Multi-interface support (Bluetooth, USB, RS232, Keyboard Wedge) and USB host options simplify integration with existing systems.
- Long battery life: PowerPrecision+ rechargeable battery options and high scans-per-charge capacity support extended shifts and reduce interruptions.
- Clear user feedback: Vibration, multi-color LEDs and audible beeps provide unambiguous scan confirmation in noisy or low-visibility environments.
