RUGGED MOBILE COMPUTING SOLUTIONS FOR:

Construction

Construction operations run on tight margins with little room for waste or errors. Increasing construction site efficiency via rapid information transmittal, retrieval, and on-site drawing edits can be done with rugged sunlight readable tablet computers. Glacier’s line of rugged tablets and rugged laptops are designed to make Jobsite multitasking user-friendly and efficient, even in the roughest of conditions.

From the construction site trailer to where the foundation is being dug, construction laptop computers and tablets are mounted directly onto heavy equipment and carried by field personnel, making instant cost-saving decisions.

Ready for review is the budget breakdown beside the bank balance and the daily schedule beside the online inventory report from the lumber supplier. Reviewing work orders and time and attendance records, architectural plans, surveys, and schematics. Emailing a receipt or a digital image of the site progress to a customer on demand.

Coordinate the job crews at multiple locations based on real-time supply, crew, and weather data. Vehicles and equipment can be tracked or directed using onboard construction laptop computers with GPS, so they’re always ready to go where they are needed most.

Glacier rugged computer hardware boasts features ensuring survival in any construction environment. Tablet computers for construction include sunlight readable displays, IP65 sealing, solid-state hard drives, integrated DC conversion, wide-area connectivity, and multiple drop testing.

Whether running project management software or linking components over a wireless network, Glacier’s rugged industrial computers can help drive productivity and cut expenses for every job type and size.

Glacier construction laptop computers and industrial tablets range in display size from 7” to 14”. Designed to be read in direct sunlight, these tablets are routinely used by architects, foremen, and supervisors alike in managing all aspects of construction.

Touchscreens designed for the rain and with gloves allow for use in all environments and weather. When building homes, office parks, or large civil projects such as highways and bridges, a Windows or Android-based durable tablet computer provides real-time access to vital information.

For applications requiring a standard laptop form factor, Glacier supplies rugged laptops sealed against water and dust, including the keyboard and the ports. These laptops have significant processing power, multipoint touchscreens, and optional 4G LTE connectivity. These tough laptops easily replace office or commercial units that simply won’t survive out in the field.

Glacier’s Kodiak is an all-in-one vehicle terminal designed specifically for fixed installation within construction heavy equipment vehicles. The Kodiak’s internal DC power supply connects easily to any voltage, and the integrated VESA mounting system allows for flexible installation.

The Glacier Kodiak provides construction operators any information deemed important to performing their job. But, on a platform far exceeding the capabilities of a consumer device.

The best tablets for the construction industry mandate ease of use, ruggedness, long battery life, and versatility. Glacier offers numerous tablets for construction that meet these tough requirements.
