Nodka’s Automation PC product line is engineered to meet the sophisticated demands of industrial automation with a suite of high-performance PCs and support modules. This comprehensive suite includes control cabinet PCs that support a variety of real-time operating systems and extensions, and are powered by a range of Intel® processors
equipped with diverse I/O options. It also features fanless IPCs for energy-efficient operations, EtherCAT I/O modules for high-speed real-time communication, a supercapacitor UPS for power
backup, and HDBaseT transmitters for long-distance, high-quality display connectivity. Each component is designed to work together seamlessly, creating a complete line of products for complex and demanding automation tasks.
The COMLACTM SoM design architecture Nodka’s Automation PCs supports easy upgrades and customization, offering a variety of expansion slots for additional peripherals, which helps in tailoring the system to specific industrial needs. These PCs range from Intel® Celeron® for basic tasks to Core™ i9 processors for intensive applications, allowing them to handle varying levels of data processing and software demands across different industrial environments.
Nodka’s Automation PCs’ compatibility with real-time operating systems (RTOS) like INtime, VxWorks, RTX, EC-Win, Windows or Linux with real-time extensions, enables precise control and synchronization essential for demanding industrial applications. These systems offer deterministic performance critical for robotics and process control, ensuring tasks are executed exactly when needed. The support of different RTOS allows for flexibility in application development and deployment, catering to diverse industrial needs and ensuring robust, efficient operation in time-sensitive environments.
The EtherCAT support to Nodka’s Automation PCs enhances their real-time capabilities significantly. As a master, the Automation PC can control a network of EtherCAT slave devices, like I/O modules, with high precision and minimal latency. This setup is ideal for synchronized operations in automation, where tasks require exact timing across multiple devices. EtherCAT’s fast communication speed and efficient data handling make it well-suited for complex real-time applications in industrial environments, providing a robust and scalable solution for modern automation challenges.
Apart from EtherCAT, several other fieldbus systems are also supported, which include PROFIBUS for connecting industrial controllers and I/O devices, CANopen for machinery, Modbus for industrial devices and PROFINET for more complex applications and integration into industrial Ethernet networks.
Nodka’s Automation PC product line supports both control cabinet wall mount and DIN Rail mount options, catering to diverse installation needs in industrial automation. Wall-mounted solutions are ideal for stable, accessible setups in control rooms or confined spaces, while DIN Rail mounting offers flexibility and ease of integration within complex systems, allowing for rapid changes and scalable configurations. This dual mounting capability ensures that Nodka’s products can adapt to varying industrial environments and application requirements, enhancing overall system design and functionality.
