Enquiring about: Machine Vision Integration – Industrial Computer Suite
The Challenges:
The customer requires a suite of industrial computers with varying levels of functionality at different price points for instant deployment into a range of machine vision applications
Each computer in the suite must be capable of operating reliably in challenging factory environments
High power processing performance integral to the dependable performance of the customer’s range of machine vision applications
High-end graphics performance across all three computers is essential to optimising the quality of items under inspection
Familiarity of interface required to simplify usage for the operative a range of mounting options are needed for each computer to suit different application needs
The Solution
Captec designed, developed and delivered a range of three embedded computers that can be ordered off-the-shelf for use in a number of machine vision deployments
Units are equipped with a fanless, shockproof rugged design with certification to IEC 60068 for shock and vibration, as well as EN 50155 and EN 50121 for EMC emissions
The specification of Intel 7th generation processors across all three variants delivers optimised machine vision power and
performance
Each computer supports a different NVIDIA graphics card, providing high-end graphics performance for vision inspection needs
All computers in the suite are configured with Windows 10 O/S, delivering a familiar look and feel across all platforms
Mounting options include DIN rail kits with VESA mounts and wallmount kits for versatility in orientation
The Outcome
The customer has access to a portfolio of systems for machine vision integration
The units can be ordered as off-the-shelf platforms with predefined specifications ensuring rapid turnaround
The customer has assurance that whatever computer they select from the suite, it is equipped to perform reliably in harsh conditions
The platforms are highly cost-effective when compared to alternative machine vision units
