We need to search for a device that will dispense golf balls by reading a
barcode.

Customer purchased a ticket which will print out a barcode. Customer then
bring the sales slip to a device that reads in the barcode, the device then
dispense the golf ball.

Like a vending machine for golf balls?

You may have to get this specially made or modify a device that already exists.

I'll start to care for a 10% cut of your sales, but I'm not helping you run your business for free.
 

Call up golf equipment manufacturers and distributers.
Or call up a company that makes barcode reading devices.

Sounds like a custom job. Realistically not very complicated.

doesn't sound like it'd be too hard of a project to custom make one..
But, why not just hand the golf balls to the customer instead of printing out a ticket?

The only application I can think of for this is a driving range... Retrofit an old soda machine to dispense golf balls instead.
(that sounds like a fun project)

i found golf ball dispensers but they are all token and card readers...


i need one that has a keypad where you enter a code to get your golfballs or just wave your ticket barcode at the laser..

That would be terrible. Imagine helping out someone without getting paid for it. Oh, the horror!
