German term

Scannerschiene

German to English Tech/Engineering Retail in-store / warehouse shelving
The 'thing' attached to shelf fronts (see links). One supplier calls it ‘label holder’. I would be grateful to hear from the experts whether this is correct. There are not a lot of hits for the literal translation ‘scanner rail’.

I guess it it's simply called a Scannerschiene because it holds the labels that car read by a barcode scanner.
