Abstract

A device for scanning marks printed on workpieces travelling under a light source includes at least two parallel mark scanning channels emitting an electric impulse due to passage of a mark, each channel being sensitive to a particular color. The device incudes, moreover, electronics for selecting a most representative mark impulse among the electric impulses emitted by the channels.
