Embedded computers are always used when particularly robust and reliable systems are necessary due to the requirements made on them. These modularly-constructed and compact industrial computers are low-maintenance, energy-saving and extremely flexible. The computer architecture of the "embedded system" is oriented on a standard PC, whereby the embedded PC only consists of the components which it really needs for the relevant application. This makes completely independent uses possible in environments in which service would otherwise be extremely cost-intensive. Despite this, many embedded computers are so powerful that they can replace a complete computer. 

Benefits of the embedded computer: no fan required, low-maintenance

The embedded computer is used in machine and plant construction,  in power & energy, transport & traffic, in medical technology and the automobile industry, in production and manufacturing engineering in addition to other industrial applications. The processors, which are becoming more and more powerful, enable use of an embedded PC even if particularly complex requirements from the above industries need to be dealt with. One advantage of this is the hardware environment familiar to many developers and the availability of appropriate software development environments.

Janz Tec AG has been acquiring the necessary experience in the development of its own embedded computer systems, which can be adapted to customer requirements if required, for many years now. The focus in the embedded computing sector is on the optimum solution appropriate to the application and the individual customer requirements. It is our duty to provide high quality for the systems, which are solidly designed for long-term use, and exceptional price to performance ratios.  

Embedded computing under the bonnet

The modern processors currently used in embedded computer systems are currently Freescale i.MX5x and Intel Atom, Intel Celeron and Core2Duo. In addition, all industrial computers are not just fitted with standard interfaces like ethernet, USB and RS 232, but a CANbus interface is also available to the user as a series feature. The embedded PC is frequently without a fan, which means that they can be used with CompactFlash media in most cases so that maintenance can be completely omitted.

Janz Tec AG is capable of controlling installed planned and systems which were previously operated using industrial computers using the considerably smaller and lower-maintenance embedded computers using its in-house products.
