Which requirements do rugged industrial computers have to meet?


Temperature-resistant industrial computer

In an industrial environment, computers are often exposed to high ambient temperatures. In outdoor areas or in vehicles such as buses and trains, the function must be ensured at fluctuating temperatures of up to -40 ° C to + 85 ° C.

Shock resistance of industrial PCs

Shocks and vibration can be dangerous for individual computer components, such as socketed processors. For this reason, permanently soldered components and processors are often used in industrial environments. RAM bars can use Anti-Vibration Fill. This significantly increases the shock resistance compared to conventional computer systems.

Waterproof industrial PCs

IP protection plays a role not only in the marine sector. There are also areas in production halls where splash protection (IP65/IP66) is required. Outside it is recommended to use fully protected (IP67/IP69K) computers.

Low-maintenance IPCs

Especially in the industrial sector, emphasis is placed on low-maintenance systems. This begins with a fanless design that eliminates the need for interior cleaning, to the use of remote maintenance tools and predictive maintenance. Thus, it is possible to minimize downtime and indirectly save costs.

Industrial computer in continuous operation

To withstand 24/7 continuous operation, high-quality components such as processors, capacitors and connectors are installed in industrial PCs. The product design must also be specially tailored to this requirement. For example, special attention should be paid to cooling or avoiding waste heat.

Long-term availability

In order to be able to use computers for the longest possible time in the same design, it is necessary to set to long-term available components. ICP industrial computers are therefore available for three, five, or even fifteen years. Revision management and active lifecycle management inform customers about upcoming changes. Thus, residual quantities can be stored early.

Verified Accessories

Verified accessories that are precisely matched to the respective product ensure compatibility and thus smooth operation. Regardless of whether these are add-on cards that are integrated via ISA, PCI, PCI Express or Mini PCIe, or external accessories that communicate via USB or serial interfaces.



What types of industrial PCs are there?



Panel PC with Touch

Panel PC and all-in-one devices are used for HMI solutions. The integrated display enables the visualization of data in production and in POS and KIOSK applications. As a rule, industrial panel PCs are equipped with a resistive or capacitive touch. Depending on the application scenario, this ensures, for example, the operation of machines with gloves.

Embedded PC

Box PCs are available in a wide variety of designs and sizes. Whether particularly compact, particularly robust, rugged or flexibly expandable, there are preconfigured devices for every imaginable application and performance.

Mobile industrial PCs

For mobile data collection in the field, logistics, service or hospitality, rugged mobile industrial computers such as tablet PCs, PDAs or Car PCs are increasingly being used.

Industry Server Solutions

Reliable series with server graded chipsets and corresponding performance are used in the industrial sector.

Custom Industrial PCs

Customized industrial computers are individually assembled according to your requirements. If required, individual interfaces (e.g. USB, HDMI, LVDS, Displayport, LAN) can be removed or relocated, the firmware adapted or customer images loaded with special software. Bios adaptations and adaptations at board level are also possible at the customer's request. Before delivery, ICP industrial computers are subjected to long-term hardware and software quality tests. This ensures the flawless functioning and reliability of the industrial PC.


Which CPU for Industrial PCs?


Depends on requirements, different CPUs are built into industrial computers. From economical Intel Atom to Celeron, Pentium, Core I to high-performance Xeon processors with Intel C422 chipset. In addition to standard processors, mobile processors with low waste heat (TDP) are also used. Typically, long-term available processor variants, such as the Intel Core i5-6300U, are used for industrial PC systems.

Long-term available CPUs are marked yellow in our Intel CPU & Chipset Matrix.



Which operating system for industrial PCs?


Windows

Windows solutions are used on many industrial computers. In addition to the widely used Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10 IoT, Windows 11 IoT as Hi-End, Value or Entry version or specially adapted Embedded Windows versions are currently used.

Linux

Also current Linux and Embedded Linux software is frequently in use.

Android

Industrial PCs with RISC processors are shipped with a license-free Android operating system. These are preconfigured „Ready-to-Use“ and the free software license can save costs.

IoT operating system for cloud-based industrial PC

The Linux based operating system QTS for Cloud-based IPC is specially designed for IoT applications. It includes numerous stand-alone tools for system integrators and software developers to realize custom IoT solutions.



Which software is useful for industrial PCs?


Security & Recovery

To secure industrial systems it is recommended to use Security & Recovery Tools . In the event of data loss, these tools can be used to reset the individual systems to their original state, sometimes fully automatically.

Monitoring Tools

With the help of monitoring tools the LAN networking traffic, individual components or entire systems can be monitored. They provide information about system health and can be used as a predictive maintenance solution.

Software download

In the category Software we offer free software tools for free download in addition to Premium Tools.
