Companies of all sizes can now realize the benefits of automatic data collection with the CK1, a powerful and flexible batch data collection terminal for retail, light industrial, and medical/pharmaceutical applications requiring small-sized ergonomics at an economical price. With choices of simplified programming tools or pre-loaded applications, linear imager or bar code scanner, along with large memory and a crisp display, Intermec's CK1 can benefit the bottom line through increased employee productivity and inventory accuracy. The CK1 offers features and functionality found in terminals much larger and more costly. With an ergonomic keyboard and a pocket-sized form factor, the CK1 allows for easy single-handed operation when it is demanded. An optional removable pistol grip handle is available for scan intensive applications. The CK1 has a choice of bar code input options: an integrated laser scanner, or a highly responsive linear imager, offering safe user interaction and aggressive decoding performance. The large, scratch-resistant 160 x 160 pixel display with backlight provides user-friendly navigation in all lighting conditions, as well as flexibility in application design. Continuing the Intermec legacy of rugged construction, the CK1 withstands multiple 1.2-meter (4-ft) drops to a hard surface.
