The Magellan 8500Xt scanner/scales are the culmination of recent developments by Datalogic ADC in high-performance fixed position scanning for the Retail Industry. No other bar code scanner designed for high volume retail performs better, has better reliability, or has the combination of features that translate into a measurable Return on Investment (ROI) than the Magellan 8500Xt products. The Magellan 8500Xt scanner/scale inherits the Magellan brand's renowned reputation for performance and reliability that has made Magellan the number one high-performance retail scanner brand in the world.

Magellan Scale Technology, Datalogic ADC’s new factory certified weighing system, virtually eliminates additional costs associated with integration. Scale-settling times (less than 500 milliseconds) are the fastest in the industry, improving throughput on priced-by-weight items. A Dual Interval Scale model legally weighs smaller, high-priced items for increased revenue. A scale-ready model version for integration of adaptive scales is also available.

The Magellan 8500Xt scanner/scale addresses produce shrink at the POS with the patented All-Weighs® scale platter that allows cashiers to weigh long or bulky produce without touching a non-weighing surface. Optional Checkpoint® and Sensormatic® integrated EAS antennas reduce shrink at the POS by requiring a good read before deactivating an EAS tag.

Data management is essential for managing POS operations. A new label editing feature enables easy pre-formatting of data before delivery to the POS. Value Added Features are reporting tools that allow data from the scanner to be used to improve throughput and manage maintenance. Special EAS reporting features provide immediate feedback and the ability to track EAS tagging compliance on a per-item basis.

The Magellan 8500Xt scanners/scales are the world’s number one retail scanner in performance, reliability and high value differentiated features.
