Device (100) for reading coded information, comprising a first optical group (10) including a first light source and first focusing means in optical alignment with said light source along an optical axis (X), and at least one further optical group including a further light source and further focusing means in optical alignment with the further light source along an optical axis (X1) parallel to the optical axis (X). The first optical group (10) and the further optical group (20) are housed in a single one-piece block (50) obtained through a single mechanical processing that, preferably, is a machine tool processing. The number of components of the reading device is thus reduced and the calibration operations necessary to achieve the desired optical alignment between light sources and with the respective focusing means are simplified and automated. Consequently, the costs of material and qualified workers are reduced, as is the time needed to calibrate the reading device.
