The trials & tribulation of sourcing obsolete automation parts
Do you remember that time your car wouldn’t start because the battery died at the very moment you were about to set off on holiday? Or when the washing machine belt broke that day you really needed a clean shirt? It’s never pleasant when everyday technologies fail, but when equipment breaks down in an industrial production environment, the results can be ruinous.
Panel PCs are rugged & expandable
A series of rugged and expandable panel PCs suitable for industrial automation, home automation and HMI applications has been introduced by Avalue Technology.
