BESPOKE DISPLAY SYSTEM WITH AN EMBEDDED PC
This is an example of a bespoke display system with an embedded PC for use in a factory production environment. The unit is designed to be wall mounted and to display factory data regarding production and system performance.
DESIGN GOAL
The customer was looking for a robust large-screen display system with a built-in PC for industrial manufacturing purposes. The system must operate indoors with a built-in PC and touch screen but has a powerful enough embedded system to cope with real-time manufacturing data. Our brief was to create a system that could display factory data from WIFI sources in a large screen format. Other requirements were wall mounting and an inbuilt power system with solid-state hard drives. The system required custom metalwork, an embedded PC system with a large 40-inch TFT panel, and with custom PCAP touch. Initial prototype designs were created using Solidworks, and a one-off prototype was built. Testing and refinements were done onsite under real-world conditions. The customer was delighted with the prototype, production systems were commissioned in batches of 10 units which are manufactured at our custom-made facility in Westerham.
“Getting a custom PC with touch at this size really helps out factory automation”
A prototype was built and installed in a test facility. The unit performed as expected and so is now under full testing onsite.
