Food & Hygienic Industrial Solution

The perfect terminal for operations in harsh environments with strict hygiene demands

Food & Hygienic Industrial Solution

Safety and Standards

  • Safety

    - CE, FCC
  • IEC Standard 60529

    - IP65/ IP67/ IP69K-rated: water and dust protection

Industry Challenges

Whether it is the actual processing of the food or the food packaging, automation is everywhere in today's modern food plants. Plant floor automation helps keep costs down and food quality up. The stainless series was developed for food processing, packaging, and pharmaceutical industries, where there is a need for water-resistant computing capabilities that can withstand daily washdowns to keep a clean food production facility.

  • Rigors of factory floor operations
    HMI and industrial Panel PCs for the factory floor operations should work in changing dust, water splashes, and humidity.
  • High hygienic requirements of specific industries
    Some industries have strict hygienic requirements. Machinery, industrial displays, and factory floors must be cleaned with high-temperature water or chemicals.
  • High pressure and high-temperature washdowns
    Due to the food industry's high hygienic requirements specifically, food processors and computing tools are subject to high pressure and high-temperature washdowns.
  • Corrosion resistance
    Industrial Panel PCs and HMI installed in a food processing or chemical factory floor are often wet, dusty, and repeatedly cleaned with aggressive chemicals that can easily cause corrosion. That is why SUS 316 / AISI 316 stainless steel material is the first choice when it comes to product design.
  • User-friendly intuitive interface
    The interface of HMI monitors should be simple and user-friendly for the operator.

Core Capabilities / Advantages

Water and dust protection IP69K / IP67 / IP65

  • The IP Code, International Protection Marking, IEC standard 60529, sometimes interpreted as Ingress Protection Marking, classifies and rates the degree of protection provided by mechanical casings and electrical enclosures against intrusion, dust, accidental contact, and water. Ingress Protection (IP) rating notifies that the unit is water and dust-resistant. For example, the IP65 level indicates that the device's enclosure has no ingress of dust, complete protection against contact (dust-tight), and is protected from water jets.

Mechanical design

  • Winmate designs its products in-house and always comes up with innovative product design solutions. The new P-Series Panel PC and Display features a waterproof conduit pipe that offers extra protection. The custom-built watertight conduit pipe is preinstalled to give an additional layer of protection for the peripheral cables connected to the industrial Panel PC.

Mechanical design

Operational safety

  • The included air vent valve comes with an automatic mechanical system to act as a safety feature that controls and maintains pressure without manual assistance to avoid air-related problems.

Operational safety

Signature true flat design

  • Easy to clean and prevent liquid droplets from penetrating any openings in the industrial display.

Optical Bonding

  • Optical bonding is a process that uses optically clear resin to affix a protective glass overlay or touch screen to the front of an LCD. Filling the air gap between the overlay and the LCD reduces parallax between the surfaces, increasing contrast, color quality, and viewing angles.

What's Stainless PPC or Display

Human Machine Interface (HMI) and Panel PCs are the brains and virtual eyes and ears of any food or beverage processing plant. A Panel PC is 'smarter' than an HMI, but both have a place in the manufacturing process depending on users' needs. The number of industrial HMIs and displays needed depends on what needs monitoring, giving plant managers and workers feedback on how their machinery performs. Is the production run on schedule? Are packaged products being filled to the correct capacity? Is critical machinery working at its optimum performance? HMI and Panel PCs have many standard features, however, those in the food processing market need a few more due to the type of environment they are placed.

Understanding Stainless Steel PPC and Display for Food and Beverage Processing

In any food or beverage processing plant, the Human Machine Interface (HMI) and Panel PCs serve as the brains and virtual eyes and ears. While a Panel PC is considered "smarter" than an HMI, both have their place in the manufacturing process depending on the users' needs. The number of industrial HMIs and displays needed depends on what needs monitoring, providing plant managers and workers with feedback on machinery performance. This includes monitoring the production schedule, ensuring products are being filled to the correct capacity, and verifying that critical machinery is working at optimal performance.

Industrial HMIs and displays have standard features, but those in the food processing market require additional features due to the unique environmental conditions in which they are placed. That's where Stainless Steel PPC and Display come in. These advanced technologies are designed to withstand harsh environments and rigorous sanitation protocols.

Stainless Steel PPC and Display are ideal for the food processing industry as they provide a high level of protection against dust, water, and other contaminants. Additionally, these devices are resistant to corrosion and chemicals, ensuring longevity and reliability in challenging environments.

The use of Stainless Steel PPC and Display in food and beverage processing plants is critical for ensuring seamless operation and optimal performance. By providing protection against harsh environmental factors, these technologies help ensure a safe and hygienic production process, reducing the risk of contamination and increasing efficiency.
