Beckhoff: C60xx Ultra-Compact Industrial PCs

Extremely space-saving and flexible

The C60xx series of scalable ultra-compact Industrial PCs combines maximum computing power in what is currently the most compact format with a wide range of options for installation in the control cabinet. It is ideally suited for control, visualization and communication, for example into the cloud.

The latest Intel processors − in three different performance classes, from the Intel Atom with one core to the Intel Core i7 with eight cores – offer maximum scalability and power density with an optimal price-performance ratio.

Performance classes and application areas

The C601x series offers Intel Atom computing power for a wide range of automation and visualization tasks. Due to their impressive computing power in relation to their size, the PCs are mainly suited for use in Industrie 4.0 applications, for example as an IoT gateway.

The C603x series unites high-performance Intel Core-i processors with extremely compact housing dimensions. The processors from the 65 W class have only been used in the much larger ATX-based Industrial PCs up to now. The devices thus represent a new dimension in terms of power density. They are suitable above all for particularly complex automation and visualization tasks, but also for a wide range of other applications in the field of image processing, the handling of large volumes of data and in the IoT environment.

The C602x series is the link between the C601x and the C603x, and the fanless integration of Intel Core-i-U processors of the 15 W class opens up new application areas and options.

Compactness

The Industrial PCs from the C60xx series are the most compact in their respective performance class in the Beckhoff portfolio. In use, up to 90 % space can be saved with the same computing power (compare Beckhoff C6640 and C6030). The C6015 – the smallest Beckhoff Industrial PC with a mounting space of just 82 x 82 x 40 mm – should be highlighted here.

Flexible mounting

In particular the wide variety of mounting options for the rear panel of the control cabinet or the DIN rail should be highlighted with this Industrial PC series. The connection level can be freely oriented, i.e. adapted to possibly specified cable layouts. Due to their maximum flexibility, the PCs fit in any niche in the control cabinet, however small.

Price-optimized

Due to the optimized housing and manufacturing concept, all Industrial PCs from the C60xx series are cost-optimized and are often less expensive in direct comparison with other series in the Industrial PC product area without restrictions in industrial compatibility, quality or durability.

All-in-one motherboard

The basic concept of the series always provides for an all-in-one motherboard developed and self-manufactured by Beckhoff. The single-board PCs are characterized by further improved robustness and durability. Modular, functional extensions in the form of a second board level can be integrated in every motherboard via an internal plug connector.

Advantage at the very core: the Beckhoff Industrial PCs

Beckhoff is a major provider of PC-based automation technology and has been developing and producing its own PC hardware since 1986. The technology know-how that has grown over the past decades is incorporated today into all Beckhoff Industrial PCs. Their principle feature is the use of state-of-the-art components and processors of the highest performance class. Combined with a high in-house production depth, including proprietary motherboard production, long-term component availability, extremely flexible configuration and customer-specific adaptations, Beckhoff presents itself today as a big contender among Industrial PC manufacturers.
