Industrial Computer For IIoT

One of the solutions that helps businesses rise to the top steadily is to adapt to new technologies in time. One of the smart technologies that can help businesses develop without limits is the introduction of "industrial computers" as a supplement to work because they can comprehensively meet the needs.

Nowadays, industrial computers can be connected to IIoT systems on the 5G network, supporting smooth and systematic work. It also helps organizations move forward steadily. But if any entrepreneurs still can't imagine how industrial computer systems can be further developed in industrial factories, this article has the answer.

What is an industrial computer?

Industrial computers are computer systems designed to be able to work efficiently in challenging environments, especially in industrial plants with a variety of environments, including high temperatures, humidity, vibrations, and lots of dust. They are designed to be especially durable.

Types of industrial computers

There are many different types of industrial computers. To meet the needs of different industries, there are 3 popular forms:

• Embedded Computer is a small computer system designed for specific tasks, often embedded in other systems or devices. This type of computer is compact, energy-efficient, and resistant to both high and low temperatures. It is suitable for controlling machinery or automation systems in factories because it can work continuously for 24 hours without interruption and can also prevent vibration very well.
  
  
• Panel Computer is a computer that combines a display screen and a processing system in one. It is designed to be installed on a control panel or wall with a touch screen for easy use. It is suitable for use as a control interface in factories or automation systems. It is resistant to dust, water, and humidity.
  
  
• IPC 4U Rackmount (4U Rackmount Industrial Computer) Industrial computers designed to be installed in a standard 19-inch rack cabinet with a height of 4U (7 inches). This model is suitable for applications that require high performance and flexibility in system expansion because it has a motherboard that can support a large number of PCI Slots and PCIe Slots. It also has an efficient cooling system and comes with a redundant power supply. It is suitable for use in control rooms or data centers.
  
  

It can be seen that each type of industrial computer has different strengths and uses. To choose the one that is suitable for the type of work, environment and specific needs of each industry sector, whether it is compactness, durability or system expansion ability. All three types of industrial computers play an important role in driving automation and production in modern industries, especially with the deployment of computers with IIoT 5G systems in factories. Which will increase production potential to be more efficient in leaps and bounds

Deploying industrial computers to implement IIoT 5G systems in industrial factories

It must be admitted that at present The introduction of digital technology in industrial plants has become an important mechanism that every factory must pay attention to, especially with the technology that is changing the industry such as the “5G network”, which is the foundation of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) system.

The 5G network is a high-speed, low-latency wireless network technology that can support the connection of a large number of devices in a limited area. These features make 5G network technology suitable for use in the industrial sector, especially in supporting IIoT systems that require fast and stable connections, leading to the increase in the service capabilities of the IIoT 5G factory system that helps maximize the efficiency of production work.

Benefits of using 5G networks with various solutions in the factory

• Reduce machine downtime. Connecting IIoT to 5G allows manufacturers to monitor machinery and equipment in real time, allowing them to identify and resolve potential issues before they escalate, thus increasing overall production efficiency.
  
  
• Improve operational efficiency. With real-time insights, manufacturers can improve their manufacturing processes and find development opportunities more effectively. This also reduces waste, improves processes, and improves communication within the factory, helping manufacturers to increase efficiency and reduce production costs.
  
  
• Improve operational sustainability by improving the manufacturing process, which helps manufacturers
