JLT Mobile Computers will showcase at InfoAg its rugged mobile computers and IT solutions that address the precise requirements of major elements of the agricultural value chain. From on-field precision farming, through animal feed supply and onto state-of-the-art distribution solutions, JLT has a vehicle-mount terminal for all eventualities, especially for those in hostile and demanding applications.
The company will showcase its VERSO+ 10 computers that offer ultimate ruggedness and reliability in the industry’s smallest form factor. They feature easy mount and dismount, as well as a scratch-resistant touchscreen that deploys JLT PowerTouch display technology, which provides optimum durability and user interactions.
The JLT1214P logistics computer will also be on display. It delivers incredibly low cost of ownership and is available with either an integrated power supply, or an isolated supply for use on electrical truck and forklift applications. JLT’s full range of rugged tablets, including the MT2010, MT1007, and MH1005 models, which have been specifically designed to stand up to the rigours of field, food and warehousing applications across a wide range of operating temperatures, will be on show.
Existing applications for these products include the deployment of VERSO+ 10 computers by Machinefabriek Steketee B.V., which uses them for smart farming solutions that leverage the rugged computer’s processing power in conjunction with high-definition cameras to align hoeing machines in order to increase efficiency and crop yields.
Moreover, Lantmännen, one of the largest farming and food industry groups in Europe, is also a user of JLT’s VERSO range, where 80 trucks used for the bulk transportation of animal feed are equipped with these rugged computers for manufacturing and distribution planning.
With the pace of change of technology seeing far greater levels of automation across all facets of the agricultural sector, the need for portable and vehicle-mount operator terminals is growing almost exponentially. Many of the world’s leading suppliers and operators depend on JLT for its rugged and powerful IT solutions and as the market matures and becomes more technologically dependent, JLT is setting the pace for this highly innovative sector.
