With increasing processing power and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities, industrial control and automation computers have become pivotal in the evolution of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Embedded boards, industrial computers, panel PCs, and rugged tablets are integral to systems such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs), supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems, machine-to-machine (M2M) devices, human-machine interfaces (HMIs), and other computer systems deployed on manufacturing floors. These robust computers are critical across a wide range of industrial processes, including design, fabrication, process control, industrial machinery operation, building automation, inventory management, asset tracking, and robotic control.

Industrial Automation
Human-Machine Interfaces (HMIs) play a crucial role in monitoring production processes and machine operability. Beyond the essential I/O and communication capabilities found in industrial control and automation systems, a high-performance touch panel interface is vital for control and visualization tasks on HMIs. Estone provides a selection of industrial panel PCs and touch panel reference designs to facilitate customization. These solutions range from ARM to x86 processors, offer touch screen sizes from 5″ to over 21″, and support various mounting options, including VESA mount, wall mount, panel mount, and custom retrofit installations.

Building Automation
Building automation systems are essential for controlling electrical systems within buildings, factories, and warehouses. These systems manage critical functions such as HVAC, lighting, security, fire detection, and the monitoring of performance and failures across devices. Estone offers a range of embedded boards, industrial PCs, and touch panel PCs featuring Power over Ethernet (PoE), wide voltage power input, reliable wired and wireless communication options, flexible I/O configurations, and the capability for continuous 24/7 operation.
