Industrial Panel PC

Panel PC or industrial panel PC come in various flavors and sizes. They are offered as low cost entry level versions to environmentally sealed IP65 to military and explosion proof for hazardous environments.

As computing electronics evolve, so has the industrial panel PC evolved with it. Today the panel pc is much more than the operator input device of yesterday. In today’s modern automation and manufacturing sites they are deployed as HMI terminals, thin clients, process control PC, machine and manufacturing control system, vision controllers, and data acquisition systems. As the trend toward PC-based systems in the market unfolds, more functionality will continue to be incorporated to support automation and manufacturing.

With increasingly complexity for the most of industrial or factory automation equipment demand, traditional Human Machine Interface (HMI) cannot offer enough flexibility to meet the application demands. Open HMI can run both open architectures for hardware and software, and plays an important role on monitoring and controlling independent Programmable Automation (Logic) Controllers (PACs or PLCs). Panel PC for manufacturing and automation are scalable and control engineers and design engineers can build seamless end user solutions.
