Choosing a scanner for machine vision identification usually means balancing upfront cost against the type of unit you are willing to put on the line. On one side is a used SICK CLV490-6010 line-scan barcode scanner listed at USD 279.00. On the other is a Datalogic Matrix 320 710-430 listed as new open box at USD 810.00. The gap between them is USD 531.00, and the right pick depends on whether you value lower cost or a newer-condition unit.
Quick verdict
If your priority is the lowest listed price and you know the CLV490-6010 scanner family, the SICK unit is the direct, lower-priced pick. If you would rather spend more for a Matrix 320 710-430 in new open-box condition, the Datalogic is the one to buy.
Comparison at a glance
| Product | Listed price | Condition | Price position |
|---|---|---|---|

| Datalogic Matrix 320 710-430 | USD 810.00 | New - Open box |
Where each scanner wins
The SICK wins on listed price by a clear USD 531.00. It is described as a line scan / low density / program selectable host barcode scanner, which tells you the intended reading mode. The Datalogic wins on condition: it is described as new open box rather than used. Its model and part number are right in the title, so it is easy to identify the exact unit you are considering.
SICK CLV490-6010, V#6
This is the lower-cost unit in this head-to-head. The unit is described as a line scan / low density / program selectable host barcode scanner, so it fits applications that expect an older-style line-scan reader. The model number CLV490-6010 and the V#6 suffix are spelled out in the title, which makes it straightforward to match against an existing CLV490 installation. The main limitations are the used condition and the noted discontinued-by-manufacturer status. The lower listed price makes sense if you are replacing a CLV490-6010 or you need this SICK model without spending the higher price in this comparison. Just go in knowing the unit is used and the product line is no longer in production.
Datalogic Matrix 320 710-430
The Datalogic is the higher-priced option, but the listing condition is new open box rather than used. The title starts with NEW! and the model is given as Matrix 320 with part number 710-430, so there is no guesswork about which unit you are looking at. For someone who wants a Matrix 320 family scanner and prefers an open-box unit over a used one, this is the stronger choice. The limitation is the price: it costs noticeably more than the SICK, so it only makes sense if the open-box condition and Matrix 320 model are worth that margin to you. It is the pick when the open-box condition and the Matrix 320 model matter more than the upfront difference.
Final choice by use case
Choose the SICK CLV490-6010 if your main constraint is the listed price and you are comfortable with a used, manufacturer-discontinued line-scan unit. The lower asking price leaves plenty of room in the budget for the rest of the machine vision identification setup.
Choose the Datalogic Matrix 320 710-430 if you want the Matrix 320 family and the new open-box condition is worth the added cost. It is the more expensive unit, but it is also the one with the higher-condition listing.
