Ultra-Compact Industrial PCs

Oct. 16, 2018
Beckhoff launches compact IPC suited for IoT, machine control, cloud connectivity and edge device requirements.

Beckhoff Automation debuted a new line of compact industrial PCs during PACK EXPO International 2018. Representing the newest generation of Beckhoff Industrial PCs (IPCs), the C6015, C6017 and C6030 IPCs are Microsoft Azure™ Certified, and they are just as capable to work with Amazon Web Services (AWS), SAP HANA and other major cloud services. The first entry into this range, the C6015, incorporates an Intel® Atom™ processor (up to four cores), and the newer C6030 uses Intel® Core™ i-series processors of the 6th and 7th Generation. The latest entry into the range, the C6017, offers the same Intel® Atom™ processors found in the C6015, but adds two more RJ45 interfaces and two additional USB 2.0 ports. An optional capacitive 1-second UPS is also available in the C6017. The three IPCs are ideally suited for all IoT, machine control, cloud connectivity and edge device requirements in manufacturing.
