SIMATIC PC – More Industrial PC

Automation solutions in industrial environments make high demands on the PCs: vibration, cold, dust, heat, and electromagnetic radiation count among the primary risk factors. Here, PC platforms are sought after that can do more than others.

For over 22 years, Siemens has been developing and manufacturing rugged industrial PCs. In doing so, the declared goal is to provide users with innovative and at the same time long-term available products. Consequently, machine and plant constructors profit from the excellent technological know-how that is reflected in the products. SIMATIC PCs are optimally equipped for the use in harsh industrial environments thanks to: modern industrial design with more ruggedness and system availability, reliable industrial PCs with more quality and safety, more continuity and long-term availability, as well as more service and support.

With onboard PROFINET, the SIMATIC PCs offer even more networking options – they can easily and conveniently are integrated into networks, and enable a continuous, real-time capable communication from the enterprise management level down to the field level. With it, real-time and IT communication, such as TCP/IP, are possible at the same time over one cable – and you realize cost savings during the installation and integration. Various industrial PC form factors, functionalities, and performance classes are available:
