Industrial Control

JRex-IBOX

Industrial automation is now more common, important and sophisticated than ever before. Downtime costs can be significant. With so much relying on the smooth performance of automated machinery, customers need a trusted source for embedded computer technology products and expertise. They require small solutions that leave as much space as possible for the machines they operate. They must

Defense/Governmental

be rugged enough to withstand the temperature and vibration conditions in industrial environments. Besides OS support, special software requirements like SoftPLC, communication (Web, OPC, fieldbus, special protocols) and visualization have to be fulfilled. Kontron Industrial Control meets these needs, supplying components for indus- trial control at both the board level and open system level including software for OEMs and large end users.

High-tech laser machine

Our customer‘s laser systems combine precision mechanical engineering with high-powered laser technology. They are highly productive systems for cutting, welding and surface treatme . Engineers chose a customized 6U CompactPCI system, which is passively cooled and therefore very shock and vibration resistant.

To simplify the customer’s logistics, Kontron delivers a complete configured central unit including the VxWorks target licence.

Computer modules for Gaming

Kontron has identified gaming, with its lottery, gambling and gaming machines, as a key market, due to the rapid growth of PC enabled gaming systems and plat- forms. In America, Asia and Europe more than 200,000 EC modules featuring Kon- tron technology are active around the clock, and the amusement arcades of Las Vegas are no exception. The gaming industry makes especially high demands on graphics performance in order to conjure up lightning fast animations. Dual display driving has recently be- come essential to the gaming market.

At the same time, hefty computer performance is essential in generating versatile and multifaceted, but also manipulation safe gaming sequences.

Kontron’s embedded computers and custom designs help to ensure reliable performance when it matters most. For applications from data acquisition to communications and test and measure- ment, the world’s largest defense con- tractors rely on Kontron products, sub- systems and systems.

Network in military ships

A leading international naval contractor, shipbuilder and systems integrator

has selected Kontron as a partner. The customer uses the E²Brain EB8541 with customized carrier boards in military submarine, war ships and air- craft carriers for a military real time

redundant military network with single data control based on Linux. In this case the E²Brain offers the advantages of extended temperature range, shock and vibration resistance and longevity.
