Chainway P100 Supports Smarter Timber Warehousing in Chile

Background
In Chile, a wood-products supplier manages daily warehouse operations across indoor storage areas and large timber yards. Timber warehousing involves frequent material movement, wide storage zones, and the need to keep stock information updated as products are received, stored, transferred, or shipped. To support more efficient inventory management, the company deployed the Chainway P100 AI 5G Industrial Tablet across its warehouse workflows. The tablet helps staff capture data, access inventory records, and synchronize updates in real time.

Challenge
  • Staff need to identify materials stored across indoor areas and wide timber yards. When labels are high, distant, or hard to reach, workers may spend extra time moving closer to scan or verify information.
  • Inventory data must stay current as stock is received, relocated, or shipped. Delayed updates can affect stock visibility, task coordination, and daily decisions.
  • Timber warehousing involves long shifts and demanding environments. Around stacked materials, forklifts, pallets, and loading areas, dust, frequent handling, drops, or low battery may interrupt inventory checks.

Solution
The wood-products supplier equipped warehouse staff with the Chainway P100 AI 5G Industrial Tablet to make inventory checks faster and easier across indoor storage areas and outdoor timber yards.
When labels are placed high, far away, or across stacked materials, staff can use the P100’s long-range barcode scanning up to 10 meters to capture inventory data directly from the ground, reducing unnecessary movement during stock checks. The 11-inch FHD 800-nit display helps keep records visible outdoors, while 5G connectivity synchronizes updates instantly with management systems.
For demanding warehouse conditions, the P100’s IP67 sealing and multiple 1.2 m/4 ft drops to concrete help support daily use around timber, forklifts, pallets, and loading areas. Its 10,000mAh hot-swappable battery with 27W fast charging also helps teams continue long shifts with fewer interruptions.

Result
With Chainway P100, the wood-products supplier improved the efficiency and visibility of timber warehouse operations. Staff can scan labels from farther away, update inventory records in real time, and work more comfortably in outdoor conditions.
The solution supports faster data capture, more accurate stock visibility, and smoother coordination across warehouse workflows. For timber yards that require mobility, outdoor readability, and reliable long-shift performance, the P100 provides a practical tool for modern inventory management.
