How to Know When it is Time to Upgrade Mounted Computers

In an environment that is rough and demanding, warehouses, manufacturing, and intermodal industries may find that they are constantly replacing damaged mobile computers that are not suited for shock, vibration, and just overall rough environments. Most mobile computers are also not suited for deep freeze conditions, such as cold storage with temperatures dropping to -30°C.

Forklift and cherry picker operators may find themselves constantly dealing with a damaged keyboard because of the continual use of commonly used keyboard buttons. 

Maybe the operators are having to swap equipment out because the forklift or cherry picker is down for maintenance. How long does it take them to pull the computer off the complicated docking system?

Contact Imprint today to discuss how to upgrade to the Thor VM1A.

The Honeywell FlexRange XRL Scan Engine: Going Where no Handheld Mobile Computer Has Gone Before https://imprint-e.com/the-honeywell-flexrange-xrl-scan-engine-going-where-no-handheld-mobile-computer-has-gone-before/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=the-honeywell-flexrange-xrl-scan-engine-going-where-no-handheld-mobile-computer-has-gone-before https://imprint-e.com/the-honeywell-flexrange-xrl-scan-engine-going-where-no-handheld-mobile-computer-has-gone-before/#respond Wed, 29 Jun 2022 17:20:41 +0000 https://imprint-e.com/?p=298062

In warehouses and logistic centers everywhere, and in every way, scanning ability has become the new superpower. Better, faster, safer, and more accurate scans deliver tangible benefits like operational efficiency gains throughout the entire enterprise.

Sounds great, doesn’t it? However, the reality that hits home for warehouse operations today is that many centers are in some form of transition, impacted by both human and technological factors. Transformation into a warehouse of the future remains the goal, but many simply aren’t there yet.

warehouse of the future

And nowhere is this issue more evident than with long-range scanning of inventory. Problems surface most in these ways:

      • A lack of options from older, soon-to-be-obsolete devices
      • Juggling multiple devices piles on time-and cost-intensive complexities for enterprise IT to manage and maintain
      • Warehouses and Logistics must maximize inventory capacity. Without accurate, fast, long-range scanning, that’s a challenge
      • Reading damaged

The Honeywell Flex XLR Image Scanner Goes the Distance

Checking the freezer with a thermometer

Look for the Flex XLR upgrade coming soon to other mobile computing devices in the Honeywell family. Currently, CK65 mobile computers get this evolutionary upgrade first. And it’s a significant upgrade in the long-range scanning department. Now scanning ability extends up to 90 feet.

Scans both near and far can now be performed quickly, safely, and accurately. Superior depth of field with lightning-fast autofocus and dual lenses assure that the Honeywell CK65 Handheld Mobile Computer is right at home with the broadest range of workflows.

In addition, rapid capture in challenging conditions and an Integrated camera for use in cold storage environments are other benefits to warehouse operations.

A Bigger Product Inventory Footprint? No Problem.

With warehouse and logistics centers, it’s a 24/7 numbers game. The more processed and turned, the better the bottom line looks. Inventory in. Inventory out. Rinse and repeat.

That means barcodes are read via a fork truck from the shop floor. These distances cause scanners issues because they don’t possess fast and accurate long-range capabilities.

Today’s reality: long Range scanning that keeps pace with today’s warehouse needs and challenges is in more demand than ever. The Honeywell Flex XLR Image Scanner provides an ideal solution. It maximizes worker productivity and minimizes downtime from the get-go.

All-Day Productivity. Every Day. Every Night. In Every Way.

The Honeywell CK65 Handheld Mobile Computer is the industry’s most advanced ultra rugged mobile device. This performance claim is backed by Honeywell, a company with decades-long experience in scanning technology on a global scale.

A device that stays on the job and in service provides a natural boon to productivity. Going 28 hours on a single charge is undoubtedly a plus. Even more important is the acceptance and adoption of the workforce in using these devices.

The Honeywell Flex XLR Image Scanner promises a better, more comfortable experience for users via an ergonomic handle. There are also multiple keypad options: new keypads with 42 and 53 keys that reduce the learning curve for users of competitive devices.

It all adds up to the tech and humans working seamlessly, boosting overall efficiency from start to finish.

Built to Perform. Built to Last.

The Honeywell Flex XLR Image Scanner’s long-range scanning capabilities are what catches most people’s eye. It’s also true that those that come for the device’s performance stay for the durability.

The device delivers increased impact resistance and a 3-meter drop rating. The rugged design means fewer handle replacements over time thanks to the following product design features:

    • Unibody design for handle shaft
    • High strength, no seams, high impact resistance
    • Over-molded bottom cap
    • Rounded edge to allow handle and device to stand up
    • Soft-touch palm grip

Mobility Edge™ gives You the Advantage.

Multiple advantages, actually. Honeywell’s Mobility Edge™ Platform provides best-in-class security. So much so that it’s recognized as a trusted source by the Department of Defense.

Every operation is vulnerable to malware attacks that can bring a business to its knees. Mobility Edge™ helps safeguard devices to prevent revenue, data, and company reputation losses.

Expect the same level of security across all Mobility Edge™ Devices.
The advantages don’t stop there. Accelerated provisioning, certification, and deployment across the enterprise are also possible without sacrificing enterprise security, reliability, performance, or management features.

Mobility Edge™ is another reason to choose Honeywell for an entire end-to-end system of scanners.

Longrange Scanning Has Never Been Within Reach – Until Now

The Honeywell Flex XLR Image Scanner and its long-range scanning capabilities deliver the most when, where, and how you need it. Benefits include enhanced speed, efficiency, accuracy, safety, cost savings, and visibility. The devices are easy to deploy and manage.

As you’d expect from a company like Honeywell, there’s also a full range of accessories and migration options for a no-hitch deployment.

The warehouse of the future is already here. Are you outfitting your operations accordingly, or will you risk being left in the dust by more nimble competitors?

Fact is, today’s warehouses and logistic centers desperately need speed and efficiency to perform and compete at a competitive level.

So, what can negatively impact speed in the era of pick/pack/ship lightning turnarounds? Many factors can dramatically influence (and often degrade) the human and technological components of your operation.

warehouse of the future
Consider the warehouse or logistics workforce and their daily roles and responsibilities. The more workers lift heavy items to obtain accurate scans, the higher the safety concerns and repetitive injuries that may occur—nothing like workers being shelved due to injury to wreak havoc with operations and profitability.

Moreover, a worker doesn’t need an injury to become a drag on operations. Current scanning systems can often slow performance and negatively impact the workforce due to ongoing and nagging usage and ergonomic difficulties.

One outcome is abundantly clear when viewed through warehouse performance at all levels: the need for better, faster, accurate, safe scanning of warehouse inventory. That day has arrived …

Fast, Accurate, and Safe Wearable Scanning is Job One (As well as Jobs, Two, Three, and Four)

Checking the freezer with a thermometer
Yes, wearable scanners have become that critical to operational performance and productivity. According to MHI, 70% of warehouses will deploy wearable technology within 12-24 months.

Better technology is essential for efficient operation, order fulfillment, and inventory management.
Warehouse operations and logistic centers have three key problem areas when it comes to their current scanning needs:

Warehouse operations and logistic centers have three key problem areas when it comes to their current scanning needs:

  1. Difficulty scanning: current wearables are not up for the job; scanners often break, causing downtime and being out of service when they are needed most.
  2. Scanning distance: challenges often exist when reading racks, product labels, and pick tickets from the vantage point of fork trucks.
  3. Barcode reading issues: low quality, damaged barcode readings require extra time a warehouse worker simply doesn’t have (and a warehouse operation can’t afford.)

Fortunately, the solution is literally right at your fingertips …

The Honeywell 8675i Wearable Scanner is the Answer

Demanding workflows is where the Honeywell 8675i Wearable Scanner truly shines. Finally, a warehouse or logistic center workforce can uplevel their daily performance and be much more efficient and effective. With its enhanced scanning ability, this wearable scanner is rugged and ready to deliver performance in multi-shift, real-world environments.

Workers will appreciate the superior ergonomics and smaller footprint. Warehouse management will understand how that translates into productivity. After all, Honeywell is no stranger to wearable scanner technology. There’s a 15-year foundation of proven wearable tech at work here.

Advanced Technology Leads The Way. Again.

The Honeywell 8675i Wearable Scanner is outfitted with two significant technology advances. Here’s a quick overview of each:

FlexRange™ technology

In the past, handheld and some ring scanners did a decent job reading codes of near and mid-range items. But faraway inventory, especially those in stacked bins and shelves, was problematic.
Now, with FlexRange™ technology, items near and far can be scanned quickly and precisely. Smooth, fast reading from near to far (30 ft. in the air) is now not only possible but everyday doable. The 8675i enables wearable scanning in applications and environments that would have previously required a handheld device.

Adaptus™ technology:

In short, this equips the scanner to perform in demanding conditions. How demanding? Let us count the ways: harsh, cold environments. Explosive conditions. And more.

The Perfect Fit in More Ways Than One.

Naturally, the 8675i Wearable Scanner fits the needs of warehouse operations today and tomorrow. The fit also extends to the workforce, leading to faster and more thorough adoption across the enterprise.

The scanner has a flexible wearing configuration with a fast, toolless changeover from ring to glove. The strap glove secures 8675i on the back of the hand for optimal dexterity, ergonomics, and user comfort.
Its durable material/design yields a long lifespan and it consists of non-absorbent materials for easy cleaning.

Both left and right-hand versions are compatible with bar hand or conventional glove for comfort and user safety. The unit is available in one size and is highly adjustable at index finger and wrist so each worker can perform at their best.

Valuable Upgrades, Accessories, and a Connected Workforce Await

The Honeywell 8675i is available with a full line of wearable accessories. There are also plenty of options available with multi-battery chargers, Cables and Power Supplies. The intelligent batter is easy to remove and replace which improves ROI and extends the device lifespan.

And as you’d expect from Honeywell, you can monitor and manage deployed devices via our Operational Intelligence system. In addition, support is yet one more reason to trust Honeywell as a full spectrum of Service and Maintenance options are available and scalable to your needs.
