Siemens Division Industry Automation is expanding its portfolio for industrial identification with a new "Ultra High Resolution" variant of the Simatic MV440 reader with a resolution of 1600 x 1200 pixels. Also, all the MV440 models have new functions, such as Power over Ethernet (PoE). Further innovations, such as Profinet IO device replacement, have even been applied to the smaller Simatic MV420 model.
