Newland NVH220 Lophius Barcode Scanner (NLS-NVH220-BT)

The Newland NVH220 Lophius is an industrial 2D handheld scanner built for direct part marking (DPM): it reads laser-etched and dot-peened Data Matrix codes as well as ordinary printed 1D and 2D barcodes. AI-powered decoding locates and reconstructs damaged, distorted or poorly marked codes, even on reflective and curved surfaces, a versatile multi-light illumination system adapts to every material, and IP64 sealing with 1.8 m drop resistance makes it ready for the production floor and the warehouse. This version, NLS-NVH220-BT, is the first-generation NVH220 Lophius Bluetooth kit, supplied with a 3500 mAh battery, a charging and communication docking station and a USB cable. Newland discontinued this model in April 2026 – its successor is the NVH220 Lophius AI Bluetooth (NLS-NVH220B-V2-XD).
