Frequently Asked Questions
What is industrial embedded computing, and how is it different from a standard PC?
Industrial embedded computing uses a dedicated computer, with its own processor, memory, storage and I/O, to perform a specific function inside a larger device or system. Unlike commercial PCs built for clean offices, industrial computers are designed to operate from -40°C to +85°C and to stay in service for five to 10 years or more.
How are embedded computers used in industrial automation applications?
Embedded computers control equipment and manage data across automated operations, including high-speed manufacturing control, industrial robotics, laser CNC machining, and clean room testing. In warehouses, they support product moving and labeling, defect scanning for quality systems, inventory control and supply chain management.
What makes an embedded computer “rugged,” and why does it matter in automation environments?
A rugged embedded computer is built to withstand extreme temperatures, humidity, dust and debris, vibration and shock that would cause a standard PC to fail. WINSYSTEMS puts every component through intense performance testing and quality control to maximize uptime, which keeps automated production running.
Learn why use conditions matter for industrial embedded systems.
Which industries can use WINSYSTEMS’ embedded computing solutions?
WINSYSTEMS embedded computers support industrial automation across smart factories and manufacturing, agriculture and irrigation, logistics and warehouse management, construction, and mining and oil/gas energy. These industries rely on automation to manage constant change and compete globally, which requires technology that delivers greater operational efficiency. Because each WINSYSTEMS component is rigorously tested for maximum uptime, these systems keep automated operations running in the harsh conditions where these industries work.
