Your Specialized Needs

Understanding the Specialized Needs of Cold Storage Environments

Optimizing the supply chain has become a competitive necessity in virtually every industry. This strategy is particularly crucial to cold storage and distribution suppliers, who face many unique challenges.

Today, temperature-controlled logistics providers must meet increasing demands for cost efficiencies and smaller, more frequent just-in-time deliveries. As a result, more and more refrigerated warehouses are developing large, flexible facilities that can accommodate a wide range of refrigeration needs. They're also using state-of-the-art information systems to rapidly retrieve and move products and information across the cold chain.

A Systems Approach to Mobile Computing: RF Systems Made to Order

Radio frequency systems enable your mobile workers to instantly and accurately communicate product storage and retrieval data. But not just any RF system will work in a cold storage facility - you need a solution designed specifically for the demands of this unique and hostile environment.

At Psion Teklogix, we stand apart as the total RF systems provider to the cold storage and distribution industry - the one company that's committed to understanding your business, and building a ground-up solution to your inventory and logistics management needs.

Psion Teklogix provides total systems integration, from pre-installation consulting through to detailed site surveys, system recommendations and design, technical reviews, coverage guarantees, printers and scanners, user training and exceptional post-sales support.

The Tougher, The Better: Extreme Temperatures Call for Specialized Solutions

In a cold storage facility, you need a wireless data communications system that can handle extreme - and often fluctuating - temperatures. While some RF systems claim low-temperature capabilities, none - until now - has provided a proven solution to the demands of extremely cold freezer applications. The solution is now at hand, with Psion Teklogix' fully reengineered line of rugged wireless computers, proven to operate at peak performance in condensing environments down to -22°F/-30°C.

Tried and Tested, But Don't Take Our Word for It!

As mobile workers move between humid shipping docks, refrigerated facilities, sub-zero freezers and blast freezers, condensation can wreak havoc on wireless computers, causing frozen keyboards, window fogging, display failures, and corrosion of internal parts. These problems lead, in turn, to increased downtime, operational and maintenance costs. Psion Teklogix' freezer computers are built specifically for condensing environments. An independent laboratory has subjected these computers to the very harshest conditions of a cold storage environment. That includes soak tests, cyclical temperature changes ranging from a humid +122°F/50°C to an icy -22°F/-35°C, as well as rigorous shock and vibration testing. Our comprehensive testing is your assurance that your Psion Teklogix system can live up to the demands of your cold storage facility.
