Portable systems are becoming increasingly powerful and less power-hungry as time goes on. This means that physically larger screens and keyboards can be used in portable instruments for data interrogation and capture, remote machine control, stock management and similar applications.
Hammond’s1599TAB family is designed to house SBCs and large resistive or capacitive touchscreen displays. The smaller 1553T units are intended for keyboard and display systems.
Both families feature an ergonomic design that fits comfortably in the hand for extended use; the 1553T also has soft over-moulds for greater comfort.
Both families are available with or without battery compartments and are moulded in flame-retardant UL94V-0 ABS in black or grey as standard – custom colours are available to order.
Both designs also feature removable I/O panels, the 1599TAB and the 1553T always have a removable panel, and in versions of the 1553T without a battery compartment, there are two removable panels.
