Why Might Someone Need to Duplicate Barcodes?
Barcodes play a crucial role in inventory management, logistics, and traceability. However, there are many situations where barcodes need to be duplicated to ensure seamless tracking and compliance. Below are some common scenarios where duplicating barcodes is essential:
1. Repackaging and Serial Number Labeling - When an original product box is damaged or replaced, the serial number barcode must be duplicated and applied to the new packaging. This ensures accurate inventory tracking and prevents discrepancies in product identification.
2. Bulk Purchasing and Individual Reselling - Businesses that purchase products in bulk often find that barcodes are only present on the outer packaging. When these items are repackaged and sold individually, unique barcodes must be duplicated and applied to each unit for proper inventory management and sales tracking.
3. Individually Packaging Small Components - Retailers must ensure barcodes remain visible and scannable at all times. For loose items that need to be bagged or repackaged, barcodes are duplicated and applied to the outer packaging to meet compliance and prevent misreads.
4. Re-barcoding Stacked Inventory - Manufacturers receiving stacked materials, such as steel sheets or lumber, often find that only the top sheet is barcoded. Each time a sheet is removed, the barcode must be duplicated and reapplied to the next sheet to maintain inventory traceability and prevent disruptions in the supply chain.
5. Supply Chain Traceability - In industries like agriculture and food production, tracking goods from their source is essential. For example, harvested seeds are labelled with barcodes containing data on their origin, harvester, and date of collection. As these seeds are distributed into smaller packages, the original barcode is duplicated to maintain traceability.
6. Medical Testing and Lab Sample Identification - In healthcare, ensuring sample accuracy is critical. Barcodes on patient records must be duplicated and applied to multiple vials or test samples to eliminate identification errors and streamline laboratory processes.
7. Warehouse Order Picking and Shipping Accuracy - Warehouse workers scan barcodes from an order sheet and reapply them to pick items. At the shipping stage, duplicated barcodes are scanned to verify the correct products are being sent, reducing errors and improving efficiency.
What systems can Barcode Duplication be integrated into.
Barcode Label Printers
Label Creation: Printers can generate new labels by duplicating extracted data.
Customisation: Printers can be set up to include additional information on labels, such as names, prices, or QR codes.
Batch Printing: Bulk printing allows businesses to quickly produce large quantities of barcode labels.

Software Applications
On-the-Go Duplication: Mobile apps can scan barcodes using a device’s camera, extract the data, and send it to a connected printer for duplication.
User-Friendly Interfaces: Simple interfaces allow users to quickly create and print labels without extensive training.
Customisation: Each duplicator solution is customised to the specific requirements of the individual customer.

Barcode Scanners
Reading Barcodes: Scanners use laser or imaging technology to read data contained in a barcode.
Data Extraction: Once scanned, the barcode’s data can be extracted and used to create a duplicate label.
Verification: Scanners check if a barcode is valid or if it has been duplicated elsewhere, helping maintain inventory accuracy.
