Pepperl+Fuchs' tablet delivers all the existing data directly into the user's field of vision in real time.

Ecom, a brand of Pepperl+Fuchs, designed an industrial tablet, Tab-Ex 02, that combines top performance with innovative applications such as augmented reality. It is ideally suited for IoT-capable applications and simplifies data exchange with SCADA / DCS systems, enterprise resource planning systems (SAP, IBM Maximo), project management systems and computer-aided system planning. As a compact lightweight tablet, the Tab-Ex 02 is the perfect companion for a wide range of tasks such as inventory, material tracking, maintenance, and supply chain or asset management.

 

Based on the latest Samsung Galaxy Tab Active2, the Tab-Ex 02 commands the high-performance Android 7.1 Nougat operating system and features a powerful Octa Core processor with 1.6 GHz and 3 Gigabyte RAM. Thereby ecom provides the technological basis for complex applications that connect people, processes and systems through the Internet of Things and will be a decisive factor for a company's success in the coming years. The improved hardware of the Tab-Ex 02 enables, for example, to identify objects in an installation via augmented reality applications. The software delivers all the underlying, existing data directly into the user's field of vision in real time, while also making it shareable within the company network. Augmented reality ensures greater transparency, higher availability and faster as well as safer processes - from the planning to the operation and maintenance of a plant.

 

The Tab-Ex 02 is part of ecom´s wirelessly interlinked, explosion-proof Mobile Worker Ecosystem that includes smartphones, tablets, peripherals as well as software applications. With Pepperl+Fuchs as an umbrella brand, customers benefit from a consistent and future-proof solution and global service portfolio for hazardous areas that opens new possibilities along the entire supply chain.
