In the development of industrial automation, there is more and more demand for smart devices. Industrial tablet computers, industrial computers and touch screens are widely used. In the process of consulting, customers who are not knowledgeable will often ask what is the difference between these three? Today I will give you a brief introduction to the differences between industrial tablet computers, industrial computers and touch screens, as well as the adaptive environments.
touch screen
A touch screen is a touch screen in a touch display. It is an inductive liquid crystal display device that can receive input signals such as contacts. It is generally combined with a liquid crystal display to form a touch display device. When the graphic buttons on the screen are touched, the tactile feedback system on the screen drives various connected devices according to pre-programmed programs, and then creates audio-visual effects through the liquid crystal display. Mainly used in information query terminals, multimedia teaching, industrial control and other fields. It has the advantages of fast response, space saving, and easy communication.
Industrial PC
Ordinary industrial PCs are usually composed of passive backplanes and industrial CPU cards, expansion cards and power supplies, or large motherboards and power supplies, and even storage units such as optical drives and floppy drives, which have the characteristics of multi-card expansion. The large size and high energy consumption are also obvious shortcomings of ordinary industrial computers. Due to the upgrade of application solutions, such as multi-functional PLC, various modules and switches, instead of traditional acquisition cards, bus multi-port cards, etc., the demand for multi-card expansion is no longer so strong, and embedded industrial computers are derived . Compared with traditional industrial computers, embedded industrial computers provide higher reliability, and are more suitable for the complex and harsh industrial environment, and are suitable for application systems that have strict requirements on function, reliability, cost, volume, and power consumption. , Has become the future development trend of the industrial computer industry.
Industrial Tablet PC
An industrial tablet computer is an industrial computer with a display screen. It is a combination of an industrial display and an industrial computer. It is an interface for communication, transmission, input, and reception of information between the user and the machine. It is widely used in communications, self-service terminals, electric power, industrial automation, smart factories and other fields. It has the characteristics of sturdiness, vibration resistance, wide temperature, multi-slot and strong expandability. The following are the characteristics of industrial tablet computers:
1. Simple installation and maintenance.
2. The front panel is mostly made of aluminum-magnesium alloy die-casting, which can reach IP65 protection level and is durable.
3. Industrial panel computer integrated host. The liquid crystal display and the touch screen are integrated, with both sturdy and durable characteristics and high-performance computing capabilities, which can effectively optimize productivity and production quality.
4. The industrial panel computer adopts a fanless design and uses a large area of fin-shaped aluminum block to dissipate heat, which has low power consumption and low noise.
5. Industrial tablet computers are mostly industry-specific specifications, not standardized products, so there are compatibility issues between systems. At the same time, the product must meet the special needs of customers for the working environment, such as temperature, water resistance, and uninterruptible power system requirements, etc. Special design and adjustments, so the manufacturer should have certain RD, production, testing, marketing and system integration capabilities
