Emerson Introduces Next-Gen Industrial PCs to Boost Automation and Spare Parts Management

Advanced Industrial PCs for Smart Automation

Emerson has launched the PACSystems™ IPC 6010, IPC 7010, and IPC 8010, a new series of industrial computing platforms built for high-demand automation applications. These next-generation IPCs support AI-driven tasks such as predictive maintenance, process optimization, quality inspection, and decision support. By integrating industrial automation parts with advanced analytics, they also enhance spare parts management and operational efficiency in modern manufacturing.

Rugged Design for Industrial Environments

Industrial operations require computing platforms that are both powerful and reliable. Emerson’s PACSystems IPCs feature 13th Generation Intel® Core™ processors with up to 64 GB ECC memory, providing strong resistance against shock and vibration. Their fan-less design allows operation in temperatures up to 70°C, with thermal monitoring and optional fans for harsher conditions. These features ensure consistent performance for industrial automation parts and spare parts management tasks.

Flexible Hardware Options for Automation Needs

The new PACSystems IPCs include SSD storage up to 4 TB, multiple gigabit Ethernet ports, and up to four PCIe® slots, making them ideal for vision systems, data processing, and real-time analytics. This flexibility also supports industrial spare parts management, enabling accurate tracking, historization, and visualization of equipment and inventory. With scalable configurations, businesses can balance performance and cost effectively.

Easy Deployment with Pre-Installed Software

To simplify setup, PACSystems IPCs come with pre-installed operating systems like Windows IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021, PACEdge, and Linux, along with software options such as PACEdge, Movicon Connext™, and Movicon WebHMI. Users can also install custom software while keeping data secure through Trusted Platform Module (TPM) and Secure Boot®. These solutions help streamline spare parts management and optimize industrial automation parts usage.

Supporting the Future of Industrial Operations

“These next-generation IPCs are central to Emerson’s Boundless Automation vision,” said Harish Shinde, VP of Controls and Software. “They provide a robust platform for AI, IoT, and other advanced applications, helping manufacturers maintain uptime, improve spare parts management, and future-proof their industrial systems.”

Conclusion

Emerson’s PACSystems IPC 6010, 7010, and 8010 deliver reliable, high-performance computing for industrial automation. With flexible hardware, pre-installed software, and AI capabilities, these platforms help manufacturers optimize operations, track industrial spare parts efficiently, and enhance spare parts management. They provide a strong foundation for smarter, more resilient, and future-ready industrial systems.
