Embedded industrial control machine is more and more popular in the industrial field, because it has the advantages of integrated control, high stability, high performance, in line with the needs of industrial automation. But now there are many kinds of embedded industrial control integrated machines on the market, how to choose the machine suitable for their own industrial field needs? Today Xiaobian will introduce several methods of choosing embedded industrial control all-in-one machine.

 
1. Determine the application scenario of the machine
 
Before choosing embedded industrial control machine, the application scenario of the machine must be clearly defined. This requires considering application instances in the business so that specific functional or performance requirements can be understood. For example, if you are developing an industrial automation control system, you need to select an industrial control integrated machine that integrates PLC controllers, HMI, and network communication interfaces.
 
2. Determine the required performance and configuration
 
After selecting the embedded industrial control machine suitable for the application scenario, the performance and configuration of the machine should be determined according to the requirements. Performance includes the amount of storage available on the machine, as well as the speed and capacity of the processor and memory. If your application requires high capacity data storage and concurrency control capabilities, performance will be a major consideration. Configuration, including the usage environment, operating system, interface, communication protocol and other factors. You need to choose the right configuration according to the requirements. Generally, the machine has a variety of standard configurations, which can be selected according to the usage scenario.
 
3. Determine the technical support available
 
In the choice of embedded industrial control machine at the same time, we must make sure that if there is a problem can get technical support. Some problems may occur during the running of the machine, such as device compatibility problems or system crashes. Therefore, when choosing a machine, be sure to carefully read about the technical support program provided by the machine supplier engineers, understand the maintenance methods and maintenance service period. This can ensure that in the use of the machine in the process of problems can be accurately solved.

 
4. Choose a brand
 
The choice of brand is also very important in the choice of embedded industrial control machine. Brand stands for quality. If you choose some machines with big brands and good reputation, you can guarantee the quality and follow-up service of the machines.
 
5. Consider scalability
 
In the choice of embedded industrial control machine, it is necessary to consider its scalability. Some machine modular design, with the expansion of the scope of application and increase the module, to meet the requirements of the application. Some machines, which are not scalable, have to be replaced when their application is expanded, resulting in additional costs and wasted time. So scalability is also an important factor when choosing a machine.
 
To sum up, there are many factors to consider in choosing embedded industrial control all-in-one machine, from application scenarios and performance configuration to technical support and brand scalability. Good embedded industrial control machine can improve the efficiency of industrial automation, improve production efficiency, reduce production costs, therefore, in the selection of machines must be carefully considered, choose the most in line with their own requirements of the machine, in order to ensure the smooth operation of industrial automation.
