Robot T203
Industrial-grade fixed small terminal — Provides a reliable link between your packhouse floor and IT software
The T203 is a once off design to accomodate customers with T200 base model that is active POE powered. This model is based on the T202 platform, but has a KEY instead of a RFID card reader.
Key features
Industrial-grade ruggedized construction for harsh packhouse environments
Active Power over Ethernet (POE) for simplified installation
Functional LCD screen for operator messages
TCP/IP networking with comprehensive connectivity options
HTTP JSON-based communication protocol
2-button keypad
Simple intuitive user interface
Integrated I-Button KEY Port
Simple Third-part HTTP transaction integration
Web UI to setup your application
Applications
Dynamic labelling — accurate carton labelling without wasting expensive labels
Time & attendance — keep track of your workforce
Worker incentives — track workout output accurately
Packhouse-grade design
The T203 Robot is small LAN based terminal designed to simplify human interfaction with IT backend server software. Transactions are HTTP based JSON messages with payloads describing each action. Multiple application profiles are supported ready to perform a variety of tasks, like packing terminals, dynamic labelling. The T203 is engineered from the ground up for production environments. Ruggedised mechanicals, an operator-grade display, and POE-friendly networking mean a single Ethernet run delivers both power and data — keeping installations clean and reducing the cabinet footprint.
Central Management
Our Robot SCADA & IOT Server software provides a central management portal to setup your fleet of robots. Each robot’s functionality is configured providing an application profile and transaction URL either to the Robot server or to Third-Party software. IT Managers can quickly change parameters on the robot and use our propriertary Remote-Terminal-Protocol to have a view of the remote station’s screen, including keypad and peripheral interaction.
Communication & connectivity
- Modern integration — JSON-based messages over HTTP plugs into packhouse ERPs, traceability systems, and the Robot SCADA & IOT Server out of the box.
- Integrated KEY Port — the key port takes a USB like stick with an integrated I-Button IC. The KEY port allows for packer identification as well as station occupancy tracking.
Real-world applications
- Dynamic carton labelling — capture packing of fruit with exact timestamps and dynamic label rendering.
- Incentive based schemes — automated worker output tracking while packing fruit to simplify worker incentive calculations.
Simple Operations
Operators quickly understand how to operate the terminals. This simplifies training due to a dedicated screen flow and intuitive on screen messages. Keypad layouts and number of buttons are chosen for specific applications to minimize user errors. In some applications the buttons represent the number of fruit specifications and other the number of labels to be printed. Limiting user options with buttons reduce the number of incorrect selections, especially when operations run at full pace.
Our key port receives a special USB stick that identifies operators at a station. While plugged-in software can also monitor packer performance and attendance. This remove the need for separate time and attendance verification.
