Advantech has expanded its modular Human-Machine Interface (HMI) panel PC lineup with more screen sizes.
The modular design of the TPC-B300 and TPC-B520 models enables customers to choose from a range of CPU and I/O configurations and pair them with screens ranging sizes from 12in to 24in. This creates over 30 distinct HMI combinations, tailored to meet diverse industrial needs.
Advantech’s modular HMI meets the demand of modern factories by offering both stability and flexibility with rapid product development. This allows Advantech to continuously release HMIs with the latest CPUs, ensuring enhanced stability and extended product lifecycles. This approach also allows for faster delivery times, eliminating long wait periods for customers.
The design also simplifies maintenance and upgrades, minimizing downtime and reducing costs in industrial settings.
The TPC-B series features a fanless design that operates across a wide temperature range and incorporates TPM 2.0 for enhanced security. These units are compatible with various mounting options, including panel, wall, stand, and VESA mounts. They support both Windows 10/11 LTSC and Advantech Linux, offering flexibility in operating system choice.
The TPC-B520 provides higher computing performance with 13th Gen Intel Core processors with a DDR5 memory slot supporting up to 32GB and Multiple I/O including 2 x USB 3.2, 2 x USB 2.0, 2 x 2500 Mbps, 2 x RS-232/422/485, as well as 1 x DisplayPort, and 1 x Type-C interface for an additional monitor. M.2 expansions support NVMe SSD, and 5G and Wi-Fi modules.
The TPC-B300 offers a compact form factor with basic I/O and a power-efficient design in a rugged, compact form factor of 269 x 203 x 30 mm. It is based around the Intel Atom and Intel Celeron processors with a DDR5 memory slot supporting up to 32GB as well as 3 x USB 3.2, 1 x USB 2.0, 2 x 2500 Mbps, 2 x RS-232/422/485, as well as 1 x DisplayPort, and 1 x Line-out
The screens are designed to operate in temperatures from -20 to 60°C. For optimal visibility in bright outdoor environments, select models (12″, 15″, 15.6″, and 21.5″) are available with high-brightness options for workstations, production lines, and equipment manufacturing.
The series supports data processing, real-time connectivity, and display functions and the expansion capability allows seamless integration with sensors and industrial protocols such as Profinet, Profibus, and EtherCAT, streamlining data collection and monitoring. Bundled with proprietary or third-party software, it enables robust SCADA and HMI deployments. These features help create Industry 4.0-ready factories, providing both on-site and remote control for efficient operations, thus driving industrial automation and smart manufacturing.
