Automation

Reliably designed IT for Automation

Manufacturing and optimizing with reliable automation solutions

Modern manufacturing demands robust, reliable hardware solutions that can keep pace with increasingly complex automation requirements. When operational efficiency and system reliability are paramount, choosing the right automation hardware becomes a critical success factor.

Continuous operation

Industrial computers designed for 24/7 operation ensure uninterrupted production flows. With passive cooling systems and minimal moving parts, these robust solutions eliminate common failure points, maximizing uptime and protecting critical processes from costly disruptions.

Adaptability

Unique environments present unique challenges, from temperature fluctuations to dust and vibrations. Ruggedized hardware solutions with specialized enclosures provide comprehensive protection against harsh conditions, ensuring reliable performance even in the most demanding settings.

Flexible and scalable solutions

Build-to-order automation solutions offer significant cost advantages by eliminating unnecessary features while maintaining essential functionality.  This targeted approach allows for seamless scalability as operations grow, protecting the initial investment while supporting future expansion.

Advanced processing capabilities

From standard CPU-based systems to high-performance GPUs, modern automation hardware can be configured with the exact processing power, storage, and I/O capabilities required for specific applications, including specialized protocols like CAN, Ethercat, and DeviceNet.

Cost-effective design

High-quality components and a fanless design eliminate moving parts, preventing dust buildup and reducing breakdowns through thoughtful design and high-quality components.

Data-driven decision making

AI-powered solutions unlock the potential of Industry 4.0 by enabling data-driven decision-making, automation, and predictive maintenance. Case studies, such as the implementation of NVIDIA Jetson in SCADA systems, highlight the real-life benefits of leveraging advanced computing platforms in Industry 4.0 and Smart Factory applications.
