Logistics BusinessDatalogic’s Memor Features “Groundbreaking” Wireless Charging System

Data capture device manufacturer Datalogic has released the Memor™ 10 rugged mobile computer, one of the few rugged devices validated by the “Android Enterprise Recommended” program from Google.

Memor™ 10 is part of a new family of rugged Android PDA devices from Datalogic. It offers a slim and compact design while delivering the latest 2D bar code imaging technology for high performance scanning. MEMOR™ 10 combines the durability and the performance of a traditional rugged enterprise device with the styling of a smartphone and adds the user-friendly experience of Android™ 8.1 (Oreo) with Google Mobile Services (GMS).

Memor 10 features the Datalogic Wireless Charging System, a ground-breaking new feature for enterprise devices; Datalogic says it is the first manufacturer to offer this technology in rugged mobile computers and handheld scanners. Based on inductive-charging technology now widespread in numerous consumer electronic products, Datalogic’s Wireless Charging System eliminates battery contacts and pins, that often get dirty, bent or broken over time – and this removes a key point of failure for devices used in industrial and retail functions. Routine charging system maintenance and cleaning procedures are eliminated which means lower down time, and a lower TCO for Datalogic systems.

Datalogic’s Wireless Charging System is also faster than traditional charging solutions, claims the company. Battery levels can be safely and rapidly “topped-up” between shifts, and fully-recharged in the shortest possible time – all without over-stressing contacts, pins, and cables. For devices used round the clock, or with only short breaks between shifts, this is a great operational advantage.

Memor 10 delivers state of the art Wi-Fi and the latest LTE advanced communications, making it a solid choice for the most popular scanning-enabled applications in Retail, Healthcare, Transportation & Logistics, and Manufacturing. Examples include in Retail: store operations, assisted sales, and manager’s device; in T&L: courier device for proof of delivery, truck device in 3PL; in Manufacturing: production line and quality control; in Healthcare: bedside care, pharmacy and labs.
