The HPC and HPX PowerStations are designed to enable factory floor users to take advantage of the latest PC technologies in factory hardened workstations that are cost-competitive with light-duty industrial PCs.
HPC PowerStations are available in 10-, 15- and 17-inch panel-mount touchscreen systems, as well as a non-display system. “This product will be priced to compete with ‘light-duty’ industrial workstations. But this will be a truly factory-hardened and tested, NEMA 4/4X-rated product with the latest processor and media performance features found in the office PC marketplace,” says Jerry Koch, product manager. For users wanting the full power of a Windows-based HMI software package to accompany their industrial PC, the HPX PowerStation comes installed with the vendor’s InteractX HMI software, designed specifically for machine control and OEM needs.
