With South African warehouses, logistics providers and distribution centres under increasing pressure to enhance efficiency and visibility as well as turnaround times, businesses are switching to robust mobile technologies developed especially for demanding warehouse conditions. Whether you’re tracking stock in freezing conditions or barcoding high shelves in a warehouse, the RT40S distributed in SA by DCI Scanning guarantees speed, precision and dependability at every step.
The Urovo RT40S was developed to address these challenges, incorporating long-range barcode scanning and industrial-grade durability along with enterprise mobility features in one handheld device.
The RT40S is built for harsh industrial environments and features a professional 1D/2D scanning engine that can read bar codes from up to 15 metres away. This means warehouse teams can scan hard-to-reach inventory and high shelving without the need for a ladder or manual effort – helping to speed up stock counts, picking and inventory management.
One of the most important differentiators for the device is its robust operation in cold-chain and freezer environments. The RT40S is intended for low-temperature work, with operation to -30°C. It also features an anti-condensation screen with automatic heating to prevent fogging and ensure usability in refrigerated environments.
This makes the device ideally suited for sectors like food distribution, pharmaceutical logistics and cold storage warehousing, in which downtime due to device failure can impact efficiency and service delivery dramatically.
The RT40S is also ruggedly designed to IP68 standards, protecting against dust and water ingress and surviving drops of up to 1.8m onto concrete. Designed to industrial-grade standards to withstand everyday use in demanding warehouse conditions and logistics environments.
The device is powered by a Qualcomm octa-core processor and supports Android 13 and above, providing high-performance mobile computing for today’s enterprise applications. The RT40S is equipped with 4GB RAM and 64GB storage to facilitate real-time data processing, rapid application performance and incorporation into warehouse operations and logistics systems.
It’s equipped with a 5 200 mAh hot-swappable battery, allowing you to replace batteries without powering off the unit, reducing downtime. This enables teams that work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to be productive while working long shifts and around the clock. Fast charging is when the battery is completely full in less than three hours.
The RT40S is equipped with WiFi 6, 4G, Bluetooth 5.0 and GPS to meet modern connectivity requirements and assist companies in ensuring stable, real-time communication among devices and systems as well as operational teams throughout warehouse and field environments.
Additional features have been added to support practical day-to-day industrial workflows, like comfortable handheld design, physical keypad choices, glove-friendly handling, and a 13MP camera for on-site records.
The Urovo RT40S is a sturdy mobility solution which is built for warehousing, inventory management, retail distribution, manufacturing, and field operations in extreme conditions. Designed to boost efficiency, minimise errors and ensure operational continuity in demanding warehouse conditions, the RT40S is a robust mobility solution that helps businesses stay productive.
