Fanless Industrial Computer's shock resistance is achieved through a series of careful design and material selection to ensure its stable operation in harsh industrial environments. The following are several key points to achieve its shock resistance:
1. Single-piece design and structural reinforcement
Fanless Industrial Computer adopts a single-piece design, eliminating redundant connectors, screws and cables, reducing potential failure points and loose risks. This design makes the entire system more compact and integrated, thereby enhancing the overall stability and shock resistance. At the same time, manufacturers will use thicker PCB boards, reinforced I/O and power connections, etc. to reduce bending and damage under impact.
2. Strong and durable materials
In terms of material selection, Fanless Industrial Computer usually uses high-strength and high-durability metal casings and internal components. These materials can absorb and disperse impact energy and protect internal electronic components from damage. For example, the metal casing not only provides good heat dissipation performance, but also provides additional protection when it is impacted.
3. Shock and Vibration Testing
Manufacturers subject Fanless Industrial Computers to rigorous shock and vibration testing to ensure that they meet specific industrial standards, such as MIL-SPEC-810G. These tests simulate various shock and vibration conditions that the device may encounter during transportation, installation, and use to verify its shock resistance. Some high-end models can even withstand up to 50G shock and 5GRM vibration, demonstrating excellent durability.
4. Passive Cooling Design
Although passive cooling design itself does not directly improve shock resistance, it reduces the overall failure rate by reducing internal moving parts (such as fans). Fanless computers achieve efficient heat dissipation by optimizing the layout of passive cooling components such as heat sinks and heat pipes, while also reducing the risk of system instability and downtime caused by fan failure.
In summary, Fanless Industrial Computers achieve excellent shock resistance through a single-piece design, rugged materials, rigorous shock and vibration testing, and optimized passive cooling design. These features make Fanless Industrial Computers an indispensable high-performance, high-reliability computing platform in industrial environments.
