Datalogic Magellan 3600VSi Single-Plane Scanner

Built for modern self-checkout

The Magellan 3600VSi is Datalogic’s next-generation vertical single-plane scanner, engineered for self-checkout systems and compact retail environments where space efficiency, speed, and reliability are critical.

As retailers increasingly deploy thin SCO kiosks and space-optimized counters, the 3600VSi delivers high-performance scanning in a compact vertical form factor, maintaining fast and intuitive checkout even in constrained layouts.

Intelligent loss prevention, built in

The Magellan 3600VSi integrates UHF RFID directly into the scanner, enabling hybrid barcode and RFID reading in a single scan. This supports end-to-end product traceability across inventory, checkout, and returns, providing stronger protection at the POS than traditional EAS systems.

A built-in 1 MP color video camera supports checkout surveillance and item recognition when paired with external software, helping retailers identify mis-scans, ticket switching, and suspicious behavior in real time.

Optimized vertical design for tight spaces

The vertical architecture of the Magellan 3600VSi maximizes the scan envelope while minimizing footprint, making it ideal for slim self-checkout kiosks and compact cashier counters.

Customers can present items naturally and scan full baskets with confidence, while high motion tolerance and adaptive decoding reduce rescans and limit the need for staff intervention.

Faster throughput, smoother SCO flow

The Magellan 3600VSi delivers 25% faster throughput on 2D codes than the previous generation, with best-in-class 1D and 2D throughput and motion tolerance. The reliability has also significantly improved in reading codes on mobile screens and reading from damaged or poorly printed labels.

New digital interactions at the POS

On-glass color image capture enables easy and secure loyalty enrollment and document capture. With OCR support text data can be extracted from IDs, reducing manual input and improving accuracy. These scanners come ready with GS1 Digital Link to ensure future-proof support for next-generation 2D codes.

Designed for sustainability

The Magellan 3600VSi features 1.2 W low power consumption, 85% TÜV-certified recycled plastics, and recyclable packaging, supporting sustainability goals without compromising performance.
