SIMATIC Rack PC IPC647E

SIMATIC IPC647E is a robust and high-end Industrial PC in 19" (2U) design. It offers the most powerful computer technology in a new industrial design.

The SIMATIC IPC647E is particularly suitable for implementation of high-speed computation and visualization tasks, such as computer vision and data processing, or industrial server-side. The robust IPC is only two blocks high.

SIEMENS has prepared new SIMATIC IPC647E 19-inch Rack Industrial PCs with innovative Intel processor technologies and new industrial design. They are characterized by maximum compactness for the highest industrial functionality.

In addition, the advanced chassis design of the IPC647E is compatible for installation with its predecessors. That means that it may also be used in current systems at no additional cost.

Thanks to its low height (2U) and installation depth, it is particularly suitable for compact realization of quick computational and visualization tasks such as image and data processing or industrial server applications.

The new SIMATIC IPC627E compact block industrial computers are among the first industrial computers on the market to be equipped with the "Coffee Lake" processors. Therefore, they are characterized by high performance in harsh industrial environments. With powerful processors, new storage devices and memory capacities up to 64 GB, SIMATIC IPC627E industrial computers are ideal for fast handling large amounts of data and demanding visualization solutions at ambient temperatures up to 55 °C. For particularly compact solutions (eg in a control cabinet), the IPC627E computers can also be mounted vertically.

• Easy opening of the housing cover with just one screw – protected by a lockable front door.

SIMATIC IPC647E combines the newest technology and maximum productivity.

SIMATIC Microbox PC IPC427D

SIMATIC IPC427D (Microbox PC) is powerful embedded IPC with versatile maintenance-free configurations.
It has ready-to-use complete solutions (with installed and configured software) for visualization and control tasks based on WinCC RT Advanced and/or WinAC RTX software bundles:

1. very compact;
2. maintenance free;
3. 3rd generation Intel Core i processors.

Application

The SIMATIC IPC427D industrial computer is designed as a high-end compact PC platform to be used in industry for installation at machine or plant level, for the following tasks:

• Measurement, control and regulation systems in production processes;
• Collection, further processing and visualization of data;
• All machine-level applications - written in C/C++ or WinAC/WinCC flexible - that require a robust, ultra-compact industrial PC with high performance;
• Additional applications such as building automation, shipbuilding, water purification, RFID.

The range of applications for the Microbox PC 427D ranges from integrated TIA applications such as WinAC to automation solutions based on C/C++ programming together with the SICOMP RMOS3 real-time OS or standard applications for IT functions. For software packages that require the Windows 7 Ultimate operating system, configuration options are available with Windows 7 Ultimate preinstalled on a hard drive or SSD.

The SIMATIC IPC427D 420C is CE marked for industrial, residential and commercial applications. In addition to industrial applications, it can be used to automate buildings or public facilities. Thanks to the use of CompactFlash memory, the computer also has maritime certifications.

Thanks to its fanless design and the use of Compact Flash in place of a hard drive, the Microbox PC 420C has no rotating parts, resulting in increased system reliability. You can install a CompactFlash card with external access for quick replacement or inside the case if access is not needed.

SIMATIC HMI packages can be ordered together with industrial computers SIMATIC PC - licenses with discounts for RT WinCC SCADA or WinCC (Professional, Advanced).
