Industrial Computer – Preventing Failure

Computer failure can be as costly as it can be annoying. With an office PC a new unit can be quickly installed with little need to call a service engineer. However, in the world of industrial computers a PC failure can be catastrophic. Industrial computers quite often control production processes, manufacturing lines and stock control […]

Industrial Computer: Potential Explosive Atmospheres: ATEX

Computers really haven’t been with us long but in the space of two decades they permeated every aspect of our lives. Our offices, homes, cars and even mobile phones contain as much computing power than that was available when the United States put a man on the moon. Its no surprise to find that computers […]

Touch Screen – Types and Applications.

Touch screen monitors were invented in 1971 by Dr. Samuel C. Hurst and since then have become increasingly popular, particularly in industrial computing but their recent use in mobile phones has seen a huge surge in development of this technology. Commercial and Industrial Touch screens combine both input and output devices getting rid of the […]
