Zebra WT6000

The WT6000 is 27% lighter and 36% smaller in volume compared to previous models, providing unmatched comfort and enterprise-class wearability for industrial applications. Its ergonomic design reduces fatigue, allows for hands-free mobility, and increases efficiency, especially in physically demanding environments like warehouses and manufacturing plants​​.

Designed to withstand the toughest industrial environments, the WT6000 is dustproof, sprayproof, and can handle a large temperature range, making it ideal for use in everything from dry storage to cold freezers.

Zebra’s WT6000 features a large multi-touch capacitive touchscreen, which is user-friendly even when wearing gloves or in wet conditions. This larger display allows more information to be viewed at once, enhancing user productivity and efficiency in data-intensive tasks​​.

The device includes programmable softkeys, enhanced with advanced haptic technology for tactile feedback, leading to up to 39% fewer errors than typical speech-only wearables. This feature adds a new level of usability to touch interface input in industrial settings, allowing workers to operate the device with greater ease and precision​​.

When paired with Zebra Technologies RS6000 Bluetooth ring scanner and HS3100 Bluetooth headset, the WT6000 facilitates a multi-modal, speech-directed picking solution. This integration can increase worker productivity by 15% reducing errors up to 39%, significantly optimizing workflow efficiency.

The WT6000 features a groundbreaking mounting system, replacing traditional velcro with a micro-adjustable closure system for a perfect, comfortable fit. The breathable, rubberized silicone sleeve is non-absorbent and easy to clean, ensuring hygiene and safety in shared-use scenarios​​.

The unique ShareCradle system simplifies the backroom management of wearable computers. It allows for simultaneous charging of the WT6000 and compatible ring-style scanners in a single cradle, streamlining device management and battery handling​​.

Wearable devices like the WT6000 are heavily reliant on their batteries. Common problems include batteries not holding a charge as long as they used to, not charging at all, or even swelling. Regular battery checks and replacements are essential for maintaining device performance.

Given the heavy usage in industrial environments, the touch screen display can suffer from scratches, cracks, or responsiveness issues. Although the WT6000 is equipped with Corning® Gorilla® Glass for added durability, it may still require repairs or replacements due to extensive use.

The ergonomic and compact design of the WT6000 includes various physical components that might wear out over time, such as straps, clasps, or the device casing. These components may need to be repaired or replaced to ensure comfort and functionality and ensure maximum uptime for your business.

Software glitches, lag, or freezing can occur, especially in devices that are used extensively. Regular firmware updates and software troubleshooting are necessary to keep the device running smoothly.

Issues with Bluetooth connectivity, which is crucial for pairing the WT6000 with other devices like ring barcode scanners and headsets, can hamper its functionality. Diagnosing and fixing connectivity issues is a common aspect of maintenance.

If the WT6000 is equipped with sensors for specific tasks, these sensors may sometimes malfunction due to environmental factors or wear and tear, requiring recalibration or repair.
