Zebra Technologies Corp. has launched the ET6x series of rugged Android tablets to help front-line workers in warehouses, manufacturing plants, ports, yards and other environments. It features a heated touchscreen and vehicle dock for forklifts and other material handling vehicles.
The ET60 and ET65 are Zebra’s first 2-in-1 Android tablets with a friction-hinge keyboard that transforms the tablets into a laptop to make heavy data entry easier in the office and in the field. The products feature consumer styling that can handle harsh indoor and outdoor environments from sub-zero cold to extreme heat.
The tablets are dustproof, corrosion proof and tested for vibration, thermal shock and solar radiation. Two of the most vulnerable tablet elements—the display and optional scanner exit window—are protected with shatter-and scratch-resistant Corning Gorilla Glass.
The ET6x series is built to run enterprise applications in demanding environments, including warehouses. It runs on the Qualcomm QCS6490 processor with artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, more memory, advanced range barcode scanning and a high capacity field replaceable battery.
