 Would you like to test the new technology?

Let the children play with it!

 

"If you would like to test new technology and you have children, don't take it into production. Take it home! ” One of our clients recently surprised us with this statement. It is true that children are not very friendly when it comes to technologies and often try tricks with it that we, the "adults", would not even dream of. Therefore, having the device tested by children can be a beneficial solution. Kids will have fun and you can better assess the durability of the product.

 

Mr. Peter Merva from Prysmian Kablo s.r.o. tested one of our Uniq series tablets in his own unique way: “I took one of Uniq Tablet IIs Android home to be tested by my two children (5 and 8 years old). They played games all weekend, and I saw the tablet fall to the ground a few times, which I wasn't thrilled about. Nevertheless, the tablet still worked without problems and the battery lasted without charging all weekend. This home testing convinced me of the durability of the product, so I procured 10 devices in our production hall. So far, I am very satisfied and I definitely recommend the tablet even for more demanding conditions (even those outside the house). "

 

What to consider when choosing a tablet?

Durability is just one of the criteria that every industrial tablet should meet. But what are the others? How to choose the right industrial device? We have selected for you the 10 most important criteria that an industrial device should meet according to our experience.

 

 

1. Resistance to water, dust, and impact

As we have already mentioned, the industrial tablet does not bear its name just "for decoration". If it has been specially developed for demanding industrial conditions, it should be resistant to dust, industrial vibrations, or shocks. Devices with IP 65 protection, such as the Uniq Tablet II or Uniq Tablet IIs, are water-resistant and can be used without any worries, even in long-term humid environments.

 

2. Always clear view

Do you need to use an industrial tablet in the dark corners of a production hall or under sunlight? The environment plays a big role in your choice. The brightness of the display should be adjusted to both extremes. As the outdoor light changes during the day, the tablet display should automatically adjust so that you can comfortably read all the data or distinguish colors on it. The brightness of the display is set to save battery power at the same time.

 

3. Robust body for harsh environment

A tablet that stands as a member of your production team should also be mechanically resistant. The body of the tablet needs to be robust enough to handle even harsher treatment. The tablets we offer can handle unwanted falls from a height of 1.2 m, which can be useful not only in the production hall but also in the "terrain", where you need to move with it and where the risk of falling is higher. Our devices have undergone endurance testing and meet the military standard MIL-STD-810G.

4. Long live the battery!

Uniq series tablets deliver great performance without charging for 8 hours. If you are not moving with the device, simply place it in the dock station, where it charges throughout its use. An industrial tablet suddenly becomes a full-fledged alternative to a standard computer with constant charging in the dock station. However, if you need to move with the tablet in the operation hall or outdoors, it has to work wirelessly. A built-in battery gives you this opportunity. Plus, you do not have to worry for a moment about discharging the device, even while replacing it. The dual swap battery ensures that the tablet will continue to operate during the battery replacement process itself (approximately 15 minutes).

5. Convenient operation

The tablet should be sensitive to your touch. Therefore, a robust but also sufficiently sensitive display is fitted into the robust body of the Uniq Tablet. You can comfortably operate it even with gloves in demanding industrial conditions. You can appreciate this benefit not only during the winter but also in places, where wearing gloves is necessary - for example in mines.

6. In the hand or on the wall? 

The size of the tablet should fit your operation. The smaller size is suitable for carrying the device, and therefore it is also suitable for fieldwork. If you need to move with the device, you can attach it directly to your hand and use the other hand to operate other processes in the meantime. For longer fieldwork, you can hang the tablet over your shoulders while using optional straps. You can also use the Uniq series tablets as standard PCs in offices, or directly during production processes in the hall/warehouse, where you can also place them on stands or hang them on the wall (VESA mount).

 

7.  Non-stop communication

 A stable connection is an alpha and omega in places, where the flow of traffic depends on data transmission. This can be provided by a portable industrial device with a 4G or 5G module. The industrial tablet can also communicate via Wifi, LAN, Bluetooth and has a built-in GPS. The tablet offers complete communication options suitable for virtually any condition.

 

8. Connection with your processes

You may be used to using certain types of programs and applications in (not only) your production processes. Uniq tablets are compatible with Windows and Android operating systems, so they can be easily "paired" with the applications you use. Powerful processors ensure smooth operation without the annoying "chopping" or "freezing" even when using multiple applications at once.

9. As many ports as you need

The Uniq series industrial tablets are exceptionally well equipped with ports for standard industrial accessories as well as new devices: USB type C. You will also find interfaces and ports typical for industry (RS 232, RJ-45), which are not common in conventional tablets.

10. What if...

When choosing an industrial device, it is important to consider who should take care of it if necessary. Available service should be a matter. You can easily entrust the tablets from the Uniq series into the hands of our experienced experts, who will take care of it and do everything to make your operation runs smoothly as soon as possible.

 

The clients know their operation the best. However, even they are sometimes surprised by the ideas, where it is possible to use the industrial devices.  
And that's when we get on. When we communicate with the client, we try to create a "tailor-made" solution just for him. 
 
How does it work? 
 
First, we need to know you better: the nature and size of your company, an analysis of its current state, or your vision for the future. Those kinds of information are the key for us. It is the vision for the future that we can bring to reality together with the right industrial solution.
