The mid-size Thor™ VM1 computer provides unprecedented flexibility for your supply chain operations. It combines a 20.32 cm (8 in) display with breakthrough innovations that deliver rapid value for your workflows.
In today’s supply chain, the only constant is change. Disruptions, whether short-term like a forklift failure, or long-term like a natural disaster, are a fact of life. The supply chains best prepared to adapt to these disruptions will use mobile computing technology that gives them greater flexibility.
With the Thor VM1 Vehicle-Mount Computer, you’ll get unprecedented flexibility and breakthroughs in supply chain productivity.
