Re: Shop Touch Screens & Data Collection

Anchor it, as in anchor it to a forklift?  Then consider the Motorola VC5090 with a Bluetooth scanner. We've had a picker using it five days a week for about 5 years.

When I saw the price (>$3,500), I was skeptical, but the thing is built like a tank and it hasn't missed a day of service in about five years.  Our reseller got us a demo before we bought it. It's a great piece of engineering.

Subject: [MAPICS-L] Shop Touch Screens & Data Collection

Hello all,

This may seem a bit off-topic, however it's tied to purchasing Infor's MES application.

Is anyone using touch tablets in the shop that they would recommend?  And how did you mount/protect them?

We currently run old Intermec terminals with DCA (DCSI/Highjump).
The guys are pretty rough on these terminals, so I'm hestitant to put some IPads or Droids out there by themselves.

The plan is to deply these devices for transactions & dispatch instructions
- not dwg retrieval or other MES activities.

I'm looking at Panasonic's ToughPad A1 as an example, but then I still need to anchor it.

Thanks for your time & input...james
