Ideally suited to distribution centers, factory floors, and warehouses in the Middle East, the new VRC 8900 mobile data terminal enables immediate data capture and exchange in virtually any factory or warehouse environment.
The Symbol VRC 8900 offers a full suite of advanced features and productivity-focused enhancements that will maximize performance on the factory floor or warehouse aisle. It's built around the Windows CE® operating system and powered by a 32-bit, 206MHz, Intel StrongArm® processor for a host of programming and software options, and boasts a 12.1 SVGA touch-screen display, doubling the viewing area and data display of most rugged computers. It also features an optional detachable keyboard.
"Symbol has an extensive family of rugged computers for real-world applications. The new VRC 8900 is aimed right at the toughest environments, which are typically hostile to computing, but where mobile computing is essential to getting the job done. It is particularly suited to the Middle East, where industrial and oil production environments are some of the harshest and most demanding in the world," said Sunil Chadha, Regional Manager of Symbol Technologies Middle East.
The VRC 8900 can be mounted to a forklift, or to any fixed position within a facility allowing worker mobility and providing anywhere-anytime information.
It easily interfaces with Symbol's family of ruggedized 1D and 2D bar code scanners .The VRC 8900 empowers traditional "on-the-floor" applications such as real-time receiving, tracking, put-away, picking and shipping applications. The VRC 8900 series integrates the Symbol Spectrum24® wireless local area network for real-time communications, and supports a variety of portable, fixed and wireless printing options.
Sealed to IP65 standards for protection against dust and water, and shock tested to 24G, the VRC 8900 is also designed to operate reliably at temperatures as low as -30C (22ºF), and as high as 55C (131ºF), as well as to survive the vibration and repetitive pounding of forklift applications
