Hardware for Torgsoft: what you need and how to choose
Trade equipment in the Torgsoft ecosystem consists of devices designed to speed up stock intake, labeling, sales, inventory, and staff control.
The basic set includes a barcode scanner and a receipt printer; for labeling — a label printer; for warehouse operations — a data collection terminal (DCT) or mobile app; for analytics — visitor counters and price checkers.
In the context of Torgsoft retail automation, trade equipment is an integral component which, together with the accounting software, forms a unified ecosystem for managing business processes. These are specialized devices designed to accelerate routine operations: stock intake, labeling, sales registration, inventory counting, and staff control.
Main types of equipment and their functions in the Torgsoft system
Barcode scanners. The starting point of accounting, which reads information from labels and transfers it to the software. It is recommended to choose 2D scanners, as they recognize not only linear barcodes but also QR codes (for example, for working with fiscal receipts). Wireless models are better suited for warehouse mobility.
Label printers. Used for labeling goods with custom barcodes, prices, and logos generated by the Torgsoft software. For long-lasting labeling (for example, clothing or goods exposed to sunlight or moisture), thermal transfer printers are recommended, which print using an ink ribbon.
Receipt printers and fiscal registrars. Receipt printers print non-fiscal documents that serve as a control element. As an alternative to expensive classic cash registers, Torgsoft offers software-based fiscal cash registers (sRRO), which allow printing fiscal receipts on a standard receipt printer.
Electronic scales. Integration of scales with the software allows automatic transfer of exact weight into the receipt, eliminating cashier errors and manipulations. For supermarkets, scales with label printing for self-service are used.
Data collection terminals (DCT) and mobile app. DCTs are portable computers with a built-in scanner for fast inventory operations in large warehouses. A cost-effective alternative for small businesses is the Torgsoft mobile app, which performs DCT functions on a regular smartphone.
Analytical equipment.Visitor counters allow analysis of conversion rates (the ratio of visitors to completed purchases), while price checkers enable customers to independently check product prices.
Automation planning depending on business scale
Different equipment sets are recommended depending on store size:
1. Small store (1 checkout): A computer, barcode scanner, and receipt printer (or a universal 2-in-1 printer) are sufficient. Approximate cost equivalent — from 200 USD.
2. Large store: Requires scanners and printers for each checkout, bank terminals, and a label printer. Approximate cost equivalent — from 600 USD.
3. Retail chain with a warehouse: Adds servers, DCTs, and tablets for remote control. Approximate cost equivalent — from 1200 USD.
Consumables and maintenance
For stable equipment operation, Torgsoft supplies the necessary consumables: thermal labels (Eco, Top, Vellum), receipt paper (thermal paper 57 or 80 mm), and ribbons. The choice of label depends on storage conditions; for example, the “Thermo TOP” label has a protective layer against fading.
Benefits of using professional equipment
Automation using professional hardware delivers the following results:
Sales volume increase by up to 60% and service quality improvement by 50%.
Faster operations: processing one item takes about 1 second.
Transparency and security: the system records every cash drawer opening (if connected to the printer) and every cashier action, preventing theft.
Customer trust: issuing a receipt is legally required and allows customers to verify calculations, increasing loyalty.
Torgsoft not only sells proven hardware but also provides remote setup, warranty service, and staff training on device usage.

✓Checkout → fast item scanning + receipt printing
✓Warehouse → accurate accounting, inventory without manual entry
✓Sales floor → customer self-service for weighted goods and pricing
