opportunities
FORT
WORTH, Texas, Feb. 12,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- RS, a trading brand of RS Group
plc (LSE: RS1), a global provider of product and service solutions
for industrial customers, is the exclusive online source for the
new Siemens SIMATIC IPC MD-34A next-generation industrial
tablet.
This new, next-generation Siemens
industrial tablet PC empowers you to compute, monitor, control,
& multitask on the go.
This new Industry 4.0 tablet is equipped with a powerful Intel
Core i5 processor and all of the necessary interfaces and add-on
modules that organizations in manufacturing, field services,
transportation and logistics, retail and hospitality, utilities,
public safety, precision agriculture, and land management
industries need to collect, visualize, process, and act upon
real-time device, equipment, and facility data. This data is vital
to improving organizations' responsiveness, efficiencies, and cost
savings, and the new Siemens SIMATIC IPC MD-34A literally puts it
in the palm of your hand.
Designed to optimize mobile productivity by connecting users to
critical data anytime and anywhere, the SIMATIC IPC MD-34A
industrial tablet features an Intel Core i5 processor capable of
running AI- and WinCC-based SCADA and HMI solutions, executing
other computing, monitoring, and controlling tasks, and even
multitasking and is available with a hand strap, shoulder strap,
vehicle dock, and desk dock. To withstand the risks associated with
both mobility and industrial environments, it features a ruggedized
but lightweight, modular form factor with few moving parts, a long
battery life, IP65 sealing, and military-grade durability, as
proven through testing. The tablet weighs just 1.1kg (2.43lbs) and
delivers six hours of runtime with a 11.4V/3,500mA battery. It also
features navigation sensors for enhanced mobility, advanced Wi-Fi 6
and Bluetooth v5.3 mobile connectivity capabilities for efficient,
uninterrupted data transmission and collection, a large 10.1"
interactive screen for impressive visualizations, optional RFID and
barcode scanner modules for added value, and an extended standard
warranty for peace of mind.
Given these valuable features and capabilities, the new Siemens
SIMATIC IPC MD-34A industrial tablet can help users cut operating
costs by up to 60%. For example, by allowing users to remotely
access, monitor, and control various systems, like production and
assembly lines, in parallel, it reduces the need for on-site
employees, which can result in significant savings. In logistics
applications, it can be mounted in equipment like forklifts and
stackers to improve the speed, efficiency, and accuracy of picking
operations and mitigate losses. In precision farming and land
management applications, it can provide users with remote access to
real-time sensor data about environmental and crop conditions or
transmit field data and GPS coordinates to facilitate timely
responses, mitigate losses, and minimize labor requirements and
costs.
The new Siemens SIMATIC IPC MD-34A industrial tablet is also
available with five convenient accessories engineered to further
enhance mobility and ease of use. The desk dock features an RS 232
interface, a VGA interface, a 10/100Mb/s RJ45 Ethernet interface,
and four USB Type-A interfaces and enables hassle-free,
single-handed operation in office environments. The vehicle dock
features an RS 232 interface, a 10/100Mb/s RJ45 Ethernet interface,
and four USB Type-A interfaces, a standard 75x75mm VESA mount
design, and a key-lockable cradle for theft protection. The padded,
adjustable hand strap and shoulder strap provide security and
comfort and support mobile multitasking, and the battery charging
dock supports two batteries, provides auditory confirmation of
proper insertion, and has an LED indicator to convey charging
status.
"The new Siemens SIMATIC IPC MD-34A industrial tablet empowers
you to compute, monitor, control, and multitask on the go and can
help you cut operating costs by up to 60%. It weighs less than two
and a half pounds, delivers six hours of advanced processing power,
and puts valuable, real-time operational data in the palm of your
hand — whether you're ambulatory, in your vehicle, or at your desk
— which, in addition to helping you optimize your mobile
productivity, improve your responsiveness, increase efficiencies,
and reduce costs, can help you unlock new business opportunities,"
said Marie Dawson, Senior Director
of Product and Supplier Management at RS Americas. "We are very
proud to be the sole source for this high-performance,
future-forward, Industry 4.0 tablet PC, and we are very grateful
