There are no common Surface Pro cases with built-in strong magnets for attaching directly to machines.
Best set up will be:
Surface Pro + rugged case + industrial magnetic mount.

Looking to incorporate a surface pro as a vnc device in an industrial environment. When working inside of machines, it would be convenient to be able to magnetically attach the tablet onto iron surfaces (without a separate mount/dock). I have looked for a case matching this kind of application and have not found anything out there.
