Explore Our Range of PDAs at Logiscenter

A PDA, or Personal Digital Assistant, fuses all the advantages of a computer with those of a smartphone in a single device, and is now a must-have device in fields such as logistics, retail, and warehousing. These terminals are vital for businesses that require workers to read codes on products that are in different locations and report their reading in real time. Choosing the right PDA involves considering specifics such as operating system, ruggedness, code reading engine, and connectivity. At Logiscenter, we can advise you and offer the PDAs and accessories that best suit your business.

Features and Types of PDAs

Each PDA has features that vary by model, including form factor, operating system, connectivity, and ruggedness. Some available form factors are:

  • Fullscreen: Similar to smartphones, these are terminals with large touch screens, versatile for various applications.
  • Warehouse: Equipped with both a touch screen and a keyboard, ideal for warehousing environments where, in addition to reading codes, it is also common for employees who wear hand protection to enter texts and values.
  • Wearables: Worn on the wrist, offering hands-free scanning.
  • Embarkable: Designed to be placed in industrial vehicles such as forklifts or trucks.

In terms of connectivity options they offer:

  • Wi-Fi: For access within a local network.
  • WWAN: For data and calls over 3G, 4G, and 5G networks.
  • Bluetooth: For short-distance connections between devices, typically printers or barcode scanners.
  • GPS: Provides location information.
  • NFC: Proximity connection with devices.
  • RFID: PDAs equipped with RFID reading systems.

The choice is also based on the operating system (Windows or Android) and the level of ruggedness depending on the working conditions.

Ruggedness is assessed by the type of IP certification (dust and liquids) and MIL-STD-810G certification (falls from height).

Uses of PDAs

PDAs are essential for the traceability and tracking of goods, from warehouses to points of sale. Their ability to scan barcodes and maintain up-to-date data makes them essential for inventory management and operational efficiency.
