Winmate FM10Q-V 10.4″ IP65 Android Vehicle Mount Computer with Qualcomm Snapdragon 660

Warehouses that run their picking and scanning apps on Android handhelds rarely want a separate Windows build just for the forklifts. The FM10Q-V is Winmate’s 10.4 inch Android forklift computer, built on a Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 so the same apps can run on a vehicle-mounted screen.

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 is an octa-core processor running at up to 2.2 GHz under Android 9.0, which suits fleets that already run Android scanning, picking and delivery apps on handhelds. It carries 3 GB of memory and 32 GB of storage with a microSD slot for maps, logs and offline data. The 10.4 inch 4:3 display runs at 1024 x 768 with 400 nits as standard and 800 nits as an option, 1200:1 contrast and 176° viewing. Projected capacitive multi-touch works with a stylus and with gloves, and six programmable function keys below the screen give drivers shortcuts they can hit without looking.

I/O covers a Gigabit LAN port that can be specified as a 30 W IEEE 802.3at PSE to power a camera, USB Type-C and USB 2.0 ports, and two RS-232/422/485 ports on DB9 with 5 V on pin 9 for serial scanners, with CANBus and two-in, two-out DIDO as options. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are built in, with 4G/LTE on a dual nano-SIM slot and GPS/GLONASS as options. The FM10E-V is the Windows version on an Intel Atom, and the FM12Q-V runs the same Android build on a 12.1 inch screen.

Power is 10 to 60 V DC with ignition control, covering 12, 24 and 48 V vehicle supplies. An optional 400 mAh UPS battery keeps the computer running for 20 minutes when the vehicle supply drops out. The IP65 waterproof and dustproof enclosure measures 268 x 214 x 51 mm, weighs 2.4 kg and fits a VESA mount. It operates from -30 to 50 °C at 5 to 95% humidity, is compliant with MIL-STD-810H Methods 516.8 and 514.8, and carries an IK07 impact rating. The unit carries CE and FCC marks.
