What is an embedded industrial computer
With the advancement of technology, the size and design of computer systems have undergone tremendous changes. Today's embedded industrial computers are hardly like commercial desktop computers. But, perhaps more importantly, the way industry uses computers has evolved to include applications that didn't seem impossible long ago. But what exactly is an "embedded industrial computer"? What is the difference between choosing a widely used desktop computer for home or office use?
In intelligent industrial production and applications, to create special equipment to do one thing well, you need highly customizable, ultra-reliable hardware that can be configured according to the exact requirements of a given application. The equipment computer itself has many of the same functions as the embedded industrial computer (dedicated I/O, fanless and ventless chassis, compact form factor), but the equipment industrial computer is not designed to be used in conjunction with other equipment, but for Designed for independent operation.
Generally speaking, there are two ways to dissipate heat for an embedded industrial computer, that is, an embedded industrial computer with a fan. Compare 1U, 2U, 4U, 5U, and other high-performance industrial computers. The other is a fanless embedded industrial computer, which mainly relies on a large heat dissipation area for effective heat dissipation. Of course, the power consumption of the fanless embedded industrial computer is low power consumption on the CPU.
In application, the application scenarios of the two embedded industrial computers will be different. For example, the customer's working environment is highly dusty and foggy, and they generally use fanless embedded industrial computers. If the customer's working environment is simple in proportion, but requires superb processing performance, it is necessary to use an embedded industrial computer with a fan.
Industrial PCs are mainly used in industrial sites and are often embedded in large-scale mechanical equipment, so they are also called embedded industrial PCs. Embedded industrial computer has the basic characteristics of a computer, such as external chassis, IO interface, internal CPU, memory, hard disk, graphics card, sound card, network card, and embedded industrial computer samples are available.
The advantages of Higole's embedded industrial pc over commercial mainframes are mainly manifested in: the adaptability of embedded industrial computer is relatively better, it is almost completely matched with peripheral hardware equipment, has rich scalability, and is cost-effective. The design is compact, and there is no fixed reference standard for the structural design. Reasonable arrangements can be made according to the actual motherboard application required by the customer. Full consideration will be given to the external IO interface requirements and rational use will be made. To meet customer's convenient and quick adaptation to various application needs in the production process.
