Skorpio X40/45 - THE NEXT-GENERATION KEY-BASED MOBILE COMPUTER BUILT FOR ALL-DAY OPERATIONS

Bologna, June 2026 - Datalogic, a global leader in automatic data capture and industrial automation, today announced the launch of Skorpio X40/45, a compact, ergonomic mobile computer designed for continuous, all day use in modern warehouse environments.


Purpose built to support frontline operators across retail, manufacturing, and transport & logistics (T&L) operations, Skorpio X40/45 combines robust performance with a lightweight, balanced design optimized for one handed operation. A reliable data entry companion users will want to carry all day, the device combines a compact, ergonomic form factor with one-handed operation and a field-detachable pistol grip in a single versatile platform. This unique combination provides a clear advantage over competing devices, helping warehouses maintain speed, accuracy, and comfort throughout demanding shifts where productivity depends on consistent, reliable data capture.

Engineered for Agility, Built for Performance

Designed around the realities of frontline work, Skorpio X40/45 integrates seamlessly into fast moving warehouse operations. Whether used for picking, stock counting, replenishment, or goods handling, it offers a familiar, easy to adopt experience that enables quick task transitions without disruption or unnecessary complexity.

Skorpio's lighter, more compact form factor is optimized for continuous use, helping reduce operator fatigue during extended shifts while maintaining the durability required for industrial environments. Tailored for high frequency interaction, Skorpio X40/45 combines ergonomic design with key performance features including:

• 5G and Wi Fi 6 connectivity for reliable, real time data capture across indoor facilities and adjacent outdoor areas
• Compact, ergonomic design for all-day use, featuring one-handed handheld operation and a field-detachable pistol grip in a single versatile device
• Long-range scanning capabilities for fast and accurate data capture, combined with instant visual feedback through Datalogic's proprietary Green Spot good-read technology.
• Up to 48 well spaced physical keys, enabling tactile, precise input for consistent data entry

This combination allows operators to work quickly and accurately staying focused on the task at hand. The physical keypad plays a key role in reducing input errors and supporting efficient navigation through applications, especially in environments where touchscreen interaction may be less practical.

Optimized for Real World Warehouse Demands

Skorpio X40/45 is well-suited to warehouses that require dependable, high performance mobile computing across a broad range of workflows.

In retail environments, Skorpio supports accurate picking, stock counting, and replenishment tasks. In manufacturing settings, it enables reliable data capture for inventory handling, kitting, and production support activities. Across T&L distribution centers, Skorpio facilitates fast, responsive processing of goods in busy, high throughput operations.

Rugged construction ensures resilience against drops, impacts, dust, and temperature variation, making Skorpio X40/45 a reliable tool where ease of handling and durability directly influence efficiency.

Integrated Device Management and Long Term Reliability

Skorpio X40/45 integrates with Datalogic's Mobility Suite and the forthcoming Datalogic Connect™ cloud based IoT platform, giving organizations centralized visibility and control of their mobile device fleets. This includes remote configuration, firmware management, and integration with enterprise systems such as WMS, ERP, and inventory management platforms.

Built on Datalogic's Android based architecture and powered by the Qualcomm Dragonwing™ QCM4490 processor, Skorpio X40/45 delivers consistent application performance, long term lifecycle support, and regular security updates. Cybersecurity is embedded at every level, reflecting Datalogic's European heritage and alignment with GDPR driven data protection requirements.
