Rugged computers for demanding supply chain applications at MODEX 2016

The JLT 1214P features a new revolutionary touch screen which makes use of the latest generation PCT technology. The capacitive touch screen provides a user experience closer to consumer devices and is protected by a 0.07" thick, hardenend glass cover, making scratches, scuffs or even breakage a thing of the past. Like resistive touch screens, JLT’s rugged PCT display can be operated with gloves in different materials and thicknesses and used in wet conditions as demonstrated in this YouTube video.

In addition to the rugged capacitive touch screen with a lifetime as long as the PC itself, the JLT1214P computer also boasts a 64-bit Intel quad-core processor offering enhanced performance and improved responsiveness. This powerful combination of features provides the best possible total cost of ownership for logistics applications ranging from warehousing and food distribution to freezer storage and cross-docking.

The VERSO+ 10 computer is JLT’s most compact and the industry’s fastest rugged vehicle-mount computer. Thanks to the new ultra-slim logistics cradle that is optimized for indoor or in-cab use, the VERSO+ 10 computer is perfect for logistics applications such as forklifts, picking trolleys and tight truck cabins. Depending on the model, the device includes either the Intel Core i5 processor or dual-core Intel D2550 processor.

It has a 10", sunlight-readable XGA display, and measures just 9.9x8.1x1.9", including cradle. All models include a quick-mount feature, dubbed QuickLock, which makes mounting and removing the devices very easy. The computer can be ordered with Windows 10 (with Core i5), Windows 8.1 Industry (with D2550), Windows 7 Pro or Windows Embedded Standard 7 operating systems.

Also on display at MODEX will be the ultra-rugged, ultra-thin MT1010 tablet computer. Little larger than a Microsoft Surface tablet, the considerably tougher Windows device is able to withstand a drop of up to 6 feet onto concrete yet is less than 1 inch thick and weighs under three pounds. The MT1010 also features a capacitive multi-touch screen, is IP65 dustproof and water resistant, and will work in temperatures of -4 to +140 °F. All in all, it is an suitable option for customers who need a modern tablet solution that can survive heavy use in challenging environments such as warehousing and yard logistics.

All JLT computers are built from the ground up to deliver maximum reliability and function in demanding environments. In the event of a computer problem, JLT provides a 'No Questions Asked' JLT: Care service agreement which guarantees a high level of support and short repair times to minimise down time at predictable cost.
