Success Case: Rugged Tablets Improve Warehouse Inventory Accuracy
Customer Background
A global e-commerce fulfillment center managing over 50,000 SKUs daily faced increasing challenges in inventory accuracy, picking efficiency, and system integration.
To modernize its workflow, the company began deploying rugged tablets for warehouse management to replace consumer devices and enable real-time data synchronization with warehouse systems.
Their warehouse staff previously relied on handheld consumer tablets, which frequently broke down under heavy use and could not keep up with real-time data requirements.
Challenges
Manual barcode scanning and delayed synchronization caused frequent stock mismatches.
Workers wasted time switching between devices and paper-based records during picking.
Consumer devices struggled to connect with WMS and ERP systems.
Consumer-grade tablets failed due to dust, drops, and long shift operations.
Solution: Rugged Tablet Deployment
The company deployed the MDT1065 Rugged 10-inch Android Tablet across its warehouse facilities.
Integrated with the warehouse management system, these tablets allowed workers to perform inventory checks, order picking, and stock verification directly on the device.
Key Deployment Features
Seamless WMS/ERP Integration – Tablets connected directly with existing warehouse software for real-time updates.
Fast Barcode & RFID Scanning – Enabled quick stock checks and reduced picking errors.
Long Battery Life – Supported continuous 10+ hour warehouse shifts.
Durable IP67 Design – Withstood dust, impacts, and daily heavy usage in industrial environments.

Results
Real-time updates ensured correct stock levels across systems.
Workers handled more orders per shift with fewer errors.
Rugged tablets operated reliably with no breakdowns in first six months.
Supervisors gained live access to inventory flow and worker performance metrics.
"Rugged tablets transformed our warehouse operations. Inventory accuracy has improved significantly, and our staff now complete tasks faster without worrying about device failures."
