Barcode Formats

Mtec LLC Warehouse Application supports various barcode formats to accommodate the diverse needs of our users in managing inventory and warehouse operations. Below is an overview of the primary barcode formats supported, with a focus on Code 39 and Code 128, which are our standard offerings.


Code 128 (Default Format)

Code 128 is the default barcode format used in our application. It is highly versatile and capable of encoding all 128 characters of ASCII (from ASCII 0 to ASCII 127), making it suitable for a wide range of applications. This format is preferred for its high data density, which allows more information to be stored in a smaller barcode. Code 128 is commonly used in the logistics and transportation sectors for shipping and packaging.


Advantages:


  • High data density allows it to encode a large amount of data in a small space.
  • Supports the entire ASCII character set.
  • Provides excellent data security with built-in error correction.


Code 39

Code 39 is another barcode format supported by our application. It can encode an alphanumeric set (A-Z, 0-9) and seven special characters (-, ., space, $, /, +, %). Code 39 is known for its simplicity and wide industry acceptance, making it a reliable choice for non-space-constrained applications.


Advantages:


  • Easy to print and does not require a checksum.
  • Widely used and recognized in many industries.
  • Can be decoded with virtually any barcode scanner.


Other Formats

Upon request, Mtec LLC Warehouse Application can support additional barcode formats tailored to specific needs or industry requirements. If you require a barcode format other than Code 128 or Code 39, please contact our support team to discuss your needs. Custom barcode format integration is subject to compatibility and additional development.
