What Are Mounting Methods?

Mounting methods refer to how a scanning module is physically attached to a host device—options include stamp hole soldering, screw fixing, clip mounting, or adhesive bonding. The right mounting method ensures seamless integration into different production assembly processes without requiring major design changes.

XTIOT Products with Multiple Mounting Options

XTIOT offers scanning modules designed with various mounting methods to accommodate diverse manufacturing requirements.

XT2001CM / XT2001DM – Stamp Hole Soldering

The XT2001CM and XT2001DM feature 1.5mm stamp hole design for easy SMT soldering directly onto POS motherboards or other host PCBs . This enables efficient automated assembly in high-volume production environments. The split core board and lens design further supports ultra-thin embedded applications .

Perfect for:

• POS terminal manufacturing – direct PCB integration without connectors

• High-volume automated assembly – SMT placement reduces labor costs

• Ultra-thin device production – low-profile mounting preserves slim form factor

XT206M3 – Screw Fixing for Fixed Installations

The XT206M3 is designed for fixed-mount applications in self-checkout kiosks, vending machines, and POS devices . With dimensions of 61×65×11mm, it can be securely attached using standard mounting methods suitable for industrial environments.

Perfect for:

• Self-service kiosks – secure mounting for continuous customer use

• Vending machines – fixed positioning for reliable scanning

• Hospital pharmacy systems – stable installation for prescription verification

XT206H1 – Adhesive Mounting for Quick Integration

The XT206H1 features a 3M double-sided adhesive ring around the scanning window edge, enabling quick and secure attachment directly to device panels or housings . This adhesive mounting method eliminates the need for screws or soldering, simplifying integration and reducing assembly time .

Perfect for:

• Thin-panel devices – attaches directly to the back of panels without visible hardware

• Quick retrofit installations – easily adds scanning capability to existing devices

• OEM enclosures – simple peel-and-stick mounting during final assembly

• Medical equipment – clean installation without exposed fasteners

XT2002D – Versatile Mounting for Multi-Interface Systems

The XT2002D is designed for fixed mounting with flexible interface options including RS-232, COM, and USB . Its compact form factor enables integration into retail, warehouse, and production line environments .

Perfect for:

• Retail checkout systems – fixed position scanning

• Warehouse entry/exit – hands-free mounting at doorways

• Production line stations – permanent installation for quality control
