forklift terminal Mobile Android 9 robust vehicle mount terminal with a 12" touch display for warehousing and the industry Android 9 operating system, upgrades up to version R (Mobility Edge) Smart dock: easy removal and docking during operation Exchangeable front panel Cold-resistant version available down to -30 °C. Honeywell designed its compact Thor VM3A forklift terminal for extremely demanding tasks in warehousing, logistics and intermodal transportation. It is very robust and, thanks to its Android operating system, a sustainable investment. The terminal is equipped with an exchangeable 12" XGA LED backlit touch display (resistive or capacitive) with seven programmable function keys. The display is available as an indoor/outdoor version with 400/900 nits – or a as resistive version with an integrated defroster for use in cold environments and freezers.

Thanks to the upgradeable Android operating system, the forklift terminal Thor VM3A offers you the advantages of the Mobility Edge platform: less integration effort, more services & security and long-term flexibility. The forklift terminal was developed for harsh environments and is IP66- and MIL-STD-810F-certified. Excellent performance and consistently good connectivity and data transfer are ensured by a powerful Qualcomm 660 octa-core 2.2 GHz processor, 2x2 MIMO Wi-Fi 802.11ac, Bluetooth 5.0 and NFC.

Designed for use in the toughest distribution centers, manufacturing facilities and freight operations, the Thor™ VM3A computer is the industry’s most capable full-sized vehicle-mounted mobile computer, delivering unmatched operational efficiences.The Thor VM3A vehicle-mounted computer offers breakthrough features designed to eliminate downtime and maximize capital investment. The rugged, Android™-based Thor VM3A device also offers all the advantages of Honeywell’s Mobility Edge™ platform – including the ability to accelerate provisioning, application certification and deployment across the enterprise.

The Thor VM3A is upgradable to Android R, and features extended security update support to maximize return on customer investment and provide a lower overall total cost of ownership (TCO). The device’s advanced enterprise configuration and software support tools also simplify frequently repeated tasks such as unit setup and distribution of security and software updates.Compact, ergonomic and powerful, the Thor VM3A vehicle-mounted computer has numerous breakthrough features designed to maximize productivity, minimize visual obstructions and reduce or eliminate downtime. The powerful Qualcomm 660 processor, integrated keyboard and 2x2 MIMO WL AN communications keep workers connected and productive. Built to withstand extreme temperatures, the device’s large 12-inch display, readable both indoors and outdoors, supports both resistive and capacitive touchscreen options, and is available with an optional screen defroster for use in cold storage and freezer environments.   

The Smart Dock feature delivers immediate savings on support and maintenance costs while maximizing efficiency, enabling users to quickly shift computers as vehicles fail or workloads change. The field-replaceable front panel allows enterprises to minimize investments in spare parts by substituting low-cost spare front panels for spare computers and saves valuable time and maintenance costs by leveraging in-house staff to service touchscreen or keyboard failures

The Thor VM3A's smart dock mount is innovative - it allows the forklift terminal to be moved from one vehicle to another with a single movement while the forklift is in operation. The smart dock also saves costs, because it makes the Thor VM3A compatible with the accessories of previous models. The powerful battery of the forklift terminal bridges all connections and applications for up to 30 minutes.

The Smart Dock feature enables mounting and removal in seconds without affecting the cabling, saving on support and maintenance costs while minimizing capital expenses.

The field-replaceable front panel reduces maintenance costs by enabling on-site unskilled personnel to service the most wear- and abuse-prone components rather than returning them to the repair depot.

Security update availability is just as important as computer durability for maximizing a computer’s useful life. Mobility Edge products provide five more years of security updates than a typical Android device.

No need to choose between optimizing productivity and minimizing IT support costs: All Honey well Mobility Edge computers share a common hardware and software platform. From an IT perspective, they are all the same product.

The Mobility Edge hardware platform and enterprise lifecycle tools drive an integrated, repeatable, scalable approach for accelerated and secure development, deployment, performance and lifecycle
