The Challenge: Fragile Tech in a Hostile Coastal Climate

Operating in a storm-prone coastal region, the logistics provider faced mounting operational challenges. Their existing tablets failed in the high humidity and salt-laden air, leading to corrosion and water damage. Screens were unreadable in direct sunlight, touch failed in the rain , and limited battery life caused critical mid-shift shutdowns. This constant cycle of failure compromised productivity and increased operational delays.

The SOL 7 Answer: To overcome these issues, the company deployed the RuggON SOL 7 rugged tablet. Powered by an Intel® Core™ Ultra processor , the device ensures ample speed and space for complex logistics software. The 12-inch QHD+ display with 1000 nits of brightness offers exceptional visibility in direct sunlight. Features like rain-rejection and glove-touch allow workers to operate effortlessly during stormy loading processes , while a smart thermal management system prevents overheating in summer heat.

The Payoff: Reliability, Speed, and Zero Downtime

Since adopting the SOL 7, the company has reported significant, measurable improvements in efficiency and reliability.

Hurricane Resilience: Drivers successfully relied on GNSS navigation to reroute around flooded areas and complete deliveries on time during a recent hurricane season.
Warehouse Efficiency: Warehouse teams saw a 25% boost in scanning speed, improving inventory accuracy and reducing turnaround times.
Unwavering Durability: A driver accidentally dropped the tablet on a wet concrete dock during a storm, yet the SOL 7 continued functioning without issue, demonstrating its toughness.
Driver Satisfaction: Workers appreciated the lightweight design and programmable buttons, which provided quick access to critical functions, even while handling packages.
