Powering the Edge: Why an Industrial Embedded PC is the Heart of Modern Automation
They can help with a tough, high-performance, ultra-reliable computing solution. Explore our range and find the perfect solution.
Alisa Smith We live in a world of industrial automation, digital signage, and advanced manufacturing, where robust, reliable, and compact computing is essential. Traditional desktop computers cannot keep up with demands and harsh industrial environments. Industrial Embedded PCs step in by offering purposeful, rugged solutions that drive efficiency in modern operations.
At ITD Technology, we recognize that reliable, high-performance hardware is at the core of every industrial operation. Our Industrial Embedded PCs serve as the steadfast engine behind non-stop production, embodying the heart of automated processes.
Engineered for Extremes: Reliability of an Embedded PC
An Industrial Embedded PC can work faultlessly. It works under conditions that would render normal equipment inoperative. Their robust design ensures longevity and minimal maintenance. This is of vital importance for minimizing standstills and maximizing efficiency.
-
Fanless Design: The majority of our Industrial Embedded PCs adopt a fanless architecture. This is a very important advantage as it eliminates the major point of failure, which is the fan itself. It prevents dust, moisture, and chemical particles from being sucked into the system. Cooling occurs through advanced heat sinks and thermal design. This makes them ideal for those with high dust or humidity. They can be deployed in cold storage facilities and near high-heat manufacturing processes. These systems can operate efficiently within -20°C up to +70°C.
-
Vibration and Shock Resistance: These computers are resistant to the constant vibrations and shocks in industrial settings. Thus, ensuring data integrity and stability of operation.
-
Compact Power: Form factor is one of the defining features of industrial embedded PCs. High-performance systems fit into a compact, lightweight chassis. Offering a small footprint makes this class of computer system easy to integrate. This helps within existing machinery, control cabinets, and space-constrained operation environments.
Their special design makes them ideal for these applications:
-
Automation and Control: Acting as Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) replacements or Human-Machine Interface (HMI) controllers. They can handle real-time processes along the assembly lines.
-
Transportation and Fleet Management: Operating reliably in vehicles for tracking, navigation, and data logging under constant movement and vibration.
-
Digital Signage and Kiosks: Powering interactive public displays that need 24/7 reliability in unattended, sometimes harsh, environments.
IoT - Internet of Things Connectivity
The IIoT era demands devices that have the capability to connect, collect, and send a large amount of data. Our Industrial Embedded PCs are designed with extensive I/O connectivity. Many serial ports (RS-232/485) are included. They have high-speed Ethernet and digital I/O configurability. This makes it befitting to connect with legacy equipment, sensors, and the latest industrial protocols.
At ITD Technology, we provide specialized computing solutions. These solutions stand up to the most demanding challenges. The Industrial Embedded PC is the definitive choice for your application. They can help with a tough, high-performance, ultra-reliable computing solution. Explore our range and find the perfect solution.
