The history of industrial computer mainframes
The history of industrial computer host can be traced back to the 1970s, when the computer host in the field of industrial control is only experimental research. With the development of industrial automation, people gradually recognize the role of computer host in improving the efficiency and quality of industrial production. 1979, the world's security desktop industrial control computer was developed, which has a high degree of reliability and stability, a new means of control in the field of industrial control.

West Germany, Japan, the United States and other security have produced industrial control computer host, and marks the industrial computer host into the practical stage. 90 years later, China's industrial control computer host began a rapid development, and became an important landmark in the development of China's industrial automation products.

The application of new technologies such as cloud computing, industrial computer host is also constantly transforming and upgrading, promoting industrial automation towards a more efficient and smarter direction.

Industrial control computer host is a kind of computer equipment widely used in industrial control, robotics, automated production and other fields, which refers to a special computer host installed in the machine control cabinet or machine room. Although industrial control computer mainframe is also the same as ordinary computer mainframe are PC architecture, but its internal structure is different, more to meet the requirements of a variety of industrial environments.

The characteristics of industrial control computer mainframe are:
Industrial computer mainframe needs to have dustproof, waterproof, high temperature resistance, low temperature resistance and other properties.

Industrial control computer hosts need to support industrial automation control software, and have high reliability, good stability, low failure rate and other characteristics.

Industrial computer host also needs to have automatic alarms and data collection and other functions to ensure that the production line can be automated.

Industrial computer mainframe requirements to support a variety of communication protocols, with a variety of industrial equipment to achieve good communication.

Industrial computer mainframe has a wide range of applications, mainly including industrial automation control, CNC processing, medical equipment, communication equipment, optical equipment, military equipment and so on. Industrial control computer host plays an important role in the production line, providing a strong guarantee for the production line to realize intelligence and automation. At the same time, with the development of IoT technology, industrial control computer mainframe will also be more used in intelligent manufacturing, smart city and other fields.
