Advantech Launches Next Generation of All-in-One TPC Industrial Panel PCs

Taipei, Taiwan, 15th June 2021- Advantech, a leading industrial computing platform provider, is pleased to announce its TPC-300 series-the next generation of its widely adopted TPC industrial panel PC aimed at machine automation and IoT applications.

Inheriting the compact design of its predecessor, the TPC-300 series panel PCs are currently available in 4 different screen sizes (12", 15", 17" and 24") withtrue-flat display either resistive or P-CAP touch control for flexible configuration according to usage requirements.Equipped with an8^thgeneration Intel® Core™ i3/i5/i7 processor and8 GB of DDR4 memory, theTPC-300 series also supports threetypes of storagehigh-speed M.2 NVMe (M-key), M.2 (B-key) SATA, and 2.5" SATA SSDforenhanced computing performance.In addition to its four USB 3.2, one USB 2.0, two RS-232/422/485 ports, andtwo RS-232 (reserved),TPC-300 features an M.2 (B-key) connector for integrating an optional 5G module, as well as an mPCIe slot for 4G, LTE, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth modules.The Full HD display delivers superior imaging and visual quality, while the IP66-rated front panel protects against water and dust ingress. Additionally, the panel PC is compatible with panel and VESA mounting, allowing it to be conveniently installed and deployed in a wide variety of industrial environments.For improved management, the TPC-300 series supports Advantech's WISE-PaaS/DeviceOn, WebAccess/SCADA, and WebAccess/HMI software, which enable data visualization, device monitoring and control, and centralized remote management. TPC-300 devices can also be bundled with machine vision software for factory inspection applications, enabling intelligent quality inspections that facilitate industrial IoT operations.

Robust, Reliable Design for Exceptional Performance

TPC-300 is powered by an8^thgeneration Intel® Core™ i3/i5/i7 processor that supports Intel® Turbo Boost technology and multi-task processing for enhanced computing performance. The next-generationpanel PCalso features 8 GB of DDR4 memory and support for high-speedM.2NVMe(M-key), M.2 (B-key) SATA, and 2.5" SATA SSD to facilitate high-speed data processing and storage.The inclusion of ground and chassis isolation protect against damage resulting from electrical faults or power fluctuations. Moreover, to ensure reliable operation in harsh industrial environments,TPC-300 panel PCssupport a wide operating temperature range (-10 ~ 55 °C/-14 ~ 131 °F) and are IP66 rated for protection from dust, oil, and water ingress.

Optimized Design for Enhanced Mobility

TPC-300 supports multiple wireless communication technologies and is 5G ready to ensure superior mobile connectivity for real-time communication and high-speed data transmissions. To ensure easy system expansion, the panel PCs is equipped with an M.2 (B-key) connector for integrating a 5G module, and an mPCIe slot for 4G, LTE, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth modules. Additionally, a built-in TPM 2.0 module provides hardware-based security to ensure data integrity and secure transfers across diverse platforms.

Integrated Value-Added Software for IoT Applications

To facilitate convenient device monitoring and preemptive maintenance, the TPC-300 series monitors are bundled with Advantech's value-added software solutions. These solutions include WISE-PaaS/DeviceOn for remote device monitoring and management; WebAccess/SCADA and WebAccess/HMI for browser-based supervisory control, data acquisition, and visualization; and VisionNavi programmable machine vision software for complex machine vision applications, such as vision-based inspection and measurement. These software offerings are fully tested for compatibility and, combined with the TPC-300panel PC,providethe idealapplication-readycomputing solution for IoT implementation and expansion.
