Industries
Manufacturing
Rugged office and shop floor technology, networking and infrastructure for manufacturers where systems run around the clock and downtime stops the line.
Built for the floor
Enclosed, fanless and vibration tolerant options where a standard PC will not last.
Network to the machine
Industrial switching and wireless that reaches where production runs.
Planned downtime
Work scheduled around shift patterns and maintenance windows.
In a factory, a failed switch or a dead panel PC is not an inconvenience, it is a stopped line. Manufacturing IT decisions are shaped by the environment first and the office second.
We supply the hardware, networking and infrastructure that survives dust, heat, vibration and an electrical environment that is far less forgiving than an office.
What manufacturers buy from us
- Industrial and panel mount computers, plus office specification desktops and laptops
- Industrial ethernet switching, access points and cabling for the shop floor
- Servers and storage for production systems and on premises records
- UPS and power conditioning to ride through supply dips and spikes
- Barcode, label and document printing for goods in and despatch
- Operator displays and mounting for stations and control rooms
Specifying for the environment
The specification that matters is the one that survives where the machine will live. Dust ingress, ambient temperature and vibration shorten the life of ordinary equipment well before its warranty expires.
- Enclosure rating matched to dust and moisture at the actual install position
- Fanless and solid state options where airborne particles would kill a fan or a spinning disk
- Wide temperature ratings for unheated units, cold stores and plant rooms
- Mounting and cable management that survives a moving production environment
Working around production
We plan installations, swaps and network changes around shift patterns, planned maintenance windows and shutdowns. Staging equipment beforehand and testing a cutover position is usually the difference between a quiet change and a lost shift.
Give us the maintenance windows and the line priorities when you brief us. We will sequence the work so the highest output line is never the one waiting.
