Driven by the wave of Industry 4.0, enterprises are facing increasingly urgent demands for production efficiency, real-time data, and equipment intelligence. As an innovator in the field of industrial automation, PUSR's Industrial Panel PC USR-SH800 has become a core device for intelligent upgrades in industrial settings, thanks to its integrated design, edge computing capabilities, multi-scenario adaptability, and high scalability.
1. What is an Industrial Panel PC?
An Industrial Panel PC is an integrated computing device specifically designed for industrial environments. It integrates a touch display, industrial-grade motherboard, processor, and I/O interfaces, featuring dustproof, waterproof, vibration-resistant, and wide-temperature operation capabilities. Compared to traditional industrial computers, Industrial Panel PCs reduce space occupation through integrated design while supporting direct human-machine interaction, making them suitable for industrial scenarios requiring real-time monitoring, operation, and data analysis.
As PUSR's flagship product, the Industrial Panel PC SH800 features an 8-inch high-definition touch display, an industrial-grade quad-core processor, support for wide-temperature operation from -20°C to 60°C, and an IP65 protection rating, enabling it to withstand harsh industrial environments. Its core positioning is to serve as the "intelligent brain" of industrial sites, providing an integrated solution for data acquisition, edge computing, device control, and cloud collaboration.
2. Core Value of Industrial Panel PCs: From Efficiency to Intelligence
The primary role of Industrial Panel PCs lies in breaking down data silos and enabling real-time decision-making. In traditional industrial settings, device data must be transmitted through multi-tier systems to the cloud or upper-level computers, resulting in high latency and slow response times. The USR-SH800, however, leverages local edge computing capabilities to complete data processing, logical judgments, and command issuance directly at the device level, significantly reducing response times.
For example, on automated production lines, the Industrial Panel PC SH800 can collect sensor data in real time, analyze equipment status through built-in algorithms, predict failure risks, and trigger maintenance instructions to avoid unplanned downtime. This closed-loop control of "perception-analysis-decision-making" improves production efficiency by over 30% while reducing operational and maintenance costs.
3. Edge Computing and PLC Programming in USR-SH800: Empowering Industrial Intelligence
3.1 Built-in WukongEdge Application: A "Lightweight" Breakthrough in Edge Computing
The Industrial Panel PC SH800 is equipped with PUSR's self-developed WukongEdge edge computing platform, supporting lightweight AI model deployment and real-time data processing. Compared to cloud computing, edge computing reduces data transmission volume by 90% while decreasing network dependency. For instance, in visual inspection scenarios, WukongEdge can perform image recognition and defect classification locally without uploading raw data to a server, ensuring data privacy and enhancing processing speed.
3.2 PLC Programming and Local Configuration: Simplifying Automation Processes
The Industrial Panel PC SH800 supports mainstream PLC protocols (e.g., Modbus, Profinet, EtherCAT), allowing users to configure device logic directly through built-in configuration software without the need for additional programmers. For example, in packaging machinery, operators can adjust parameters such as conveyor belt speed and sealing temperature via the touch display while monitoring equipment status in real time. This "what-you-see-is-what-you-get" interaction method lowers the debugging threshold for automation systems and shortens project delivery cycles.
Application Scenarios:
Smart Manufacturing: Real-time monitoring and adaptive adjustment of production line equipment
Energy Management: Data acquisition and fault (fault warning) for substation equipment
Building Automation: Intelligent (linked control) of HVAC and lighting systems
4. Integrated Data Acquisition, Control, Display, and Cloud Collaboration: An "All-Round Player" in Industrial Settings
The integrated design of data acquisition, device control, human-machine interaction, and cloud collaboration in the Industrial Panel PC SH800 revolutionizes the decentralized architecture of traditional industrial systems.
4.1 Data Acquisition and Device Control
Supports multi-channel sensor integration (e.g., temperature, pressure, flow) and controls actuators (e.g., motors, valves) through digital/analog interfaces. For example, in chemical reactor control, the Industrial Panel PC SH800 can collect temperature and pressure data in real time and automatically adjust heating power and cooling water flow via PID algorithms to ensure stable reaction processes.
4.2 Human-Machine Interaction and Cloud Collaboration
The 8-inch high-definition touch display supports customizable interfaces, enabling operators to intuitively view equipment status and historical data. Simultaneously, the device can upload data to the cloud via 4G/5G or Wi-Fi for remote monitoring and big data analysis. For instance, in distributed photovoltaic power plants, the Industrial Panel PC SH800 can manage multiple inverters simultaneously and synchronize power generation data to a management platform, providing a basis for operational decision-making.
