Advantech Industrial Control - What is an Industrial Computer?

Create Date: 2024-8-30 12:03:23|Source: Advantech/Advantech

Embedded computers are compact computers designed for industrial applications. It is a hardened industrial computer. It can operate reliably in industrial environments as an industrial manipulator. Common embedded industrial computers are box-type industrial control computers and fanless industrial control computers. Embedded industrial computer has reliable performance, no electric fan structure, small size, low cost, and has been more and more widely used in industrial computer applications.

An embedded industrial computer is a special single-board computer produced by industrial equipment, which has the same function as a personal computer slice and is specially designed for a certain career. Embedded industrial computers are mainly used in banks, industrial smart devices and other fields that require high reliability and stability. The embedded industrial computer can be made of X86 structure, or it can be made of industrial-grade single-chip microcomputer and devices.

PC technology has promoted the development of embedded industrial computer technology

Embedded industrial computer is an industrial computer embedded in the industrial system and can operate stably and reliably for a long time in extreme industrial environments. As Intel CPUs and Microsoft DOS/WINDOWS architectures evolved into de facto specifications, ISA/PCI bus-rugged industrial PCs (IPCs) began to penetrate the industrial sector. Although IPC has undergone industrial transformation (such as the cancellation of the large motherboard, the selection of passive backplanes, plug-in card templates, industrial power supplies, all-steel sealed chassis micro positive pressure heat dissipation, automatic temperature detection and adjustment, etc.), but it is still not an industrial PC in nature, and cannot fundamentally solve the problems of horizontal placement of large motherboards, poor vibration and impact resistance, non-uniform heat dissipation, high component failure rate, long mean repair time (MTTR), difficult protection, etc., and it is difficult to meet the demanding requirements of industrial control tasks. In order to meet the requirements of the market for industrial computers, in addition to the VME bus industrial computer, a series of embedded industrial computers are produced according to the PC and compatible with the ISA/PCI bus specification, among which the more representative ones are CompactPCI/PXI bus, AT96 bus, STD bus, STD32 bus, PC/104 and PC/104-Plus bus embedded industrial controllers.
