Thor VM3 Vehicle-Mounted Computer

Disruptions in the supply chain are costly. Are you prepared to adapt? Organizations that are have a significant competitive advantage. Equipped with the Thor VM3 Vehicle-Mount Computer, you’ll be ready.

The Smart Dock delivers immediate savings on support and maintenance costs while maximizing efficiency – undock the unit from one forklift and redock it on another vehicle in seconds, dynamically shifting workers and computers as the workload changes.

The field-replaceable front panel reduces your capital and maintenance cost by integrating the two most wear and abuse prone components, the keyboard and touchscreen, into a user-replaceable part. A screwdriver is all you need. This feature also reduces capital costs by letting you substitute spare front panels for spare computers.

The ignition control allows you to set power management preferences to save startup time and extend vehicle battery life. The Thor VM3 computer supports multiple Windows®-based operating systems, so integration and application development are simple as your business needs grow. Case picking, truck loading, putaway and replenishment… the VM3 computer equips you to get the job done more efficiently.

And the VM3 computer lets you choose the options you need to maximize efficiencies in the most demanding environments – indoors, outdoors, in a warehouse, on a shop floor, or in intermodal facilities.
