We received a consultation from a customer about a machine for controlling an industrial robot. We are considering communication with PLC and connection to industrial equipment.
The specifications are that the CPU is Core i9 and GPU is required for image processing and deep learning, and it is assumed that UPS will be used as a countermeasure against power outages.
In addition, the most important thing is the delivery date, and we would like you to make a proposal that considers the balance between the delivery date and each condition.
In this case, we asked the customer to have a meeting at the web conference, so we interviewed the purpose and desired conditions.
Since machine learning is only inference, it is judged that GPU performance like learning is not required, and it is a middle class product considering the balance between power consumption and performance.
Communication with PLC and connection to various industrial devices will be realized by installing an interface card in an empty slot of PCI-Express, but if the proposal content changes depending on the installation location and operation method. We would appreciate it if you could discuss the prerequisite conditions.
In addition, the configuration includes UPS according to the customer's request, and a backup time of about 10 minutes is secured calculated from the maximum power consumption.
Since delivery time is of the utmost importance, the structure emphasizes the availability of parts.Therefore, it is not a specification configured as a general industrial computer.
However, considering that it is for industrial use (commercial use), we use parts for industrial use as far as we can handle it.
Specifically, SSD is changed to a highly durable product, and the OS is not updated by Windows Update.IoT EnterpriseIt is said.
In the case of constant operation, it is desirable to have high durability specifications including the power supply unit, but at the time of the announcement, the delivery time of the highly reliable Nipron power supply was long, so a power supply for the general public is installed. The configuration is as follows.
