The industrial PC for mobile data collection
Mobile and prompt data collection is very important in industry and logistics. As the areas and halls are usually very large, the end devices should be portable and easy to operate.
What requirements must industrial PCs for mobile data collection fulfill?
For industrial PCs to be used for mobile data collection, they must fulfill a number of requirements. On the one hand, they must be able to withstand the influences of industry and logistics. These include:
- Dust and dirt
- Heat and cold
- Influence of water (moisture, spray and water jets)
- Vibrations and shock
To meet these requirements, the industrial PCs are equipped with a robust housing and touchscreen that do not allow liquids or even the smallest particles such as dust to pass through.
In addition, industrial PCs for mobile data collection must be deployable anywhere and at any time. They usually come in the form of handy tablets. However, they can also be distributed as panel PCs in the warehouse or production facility so that employees have access to the systems everywhere.
