MD-3000

Machine Vision Controller

The MD-3000 series machine vision controllers are modular industrial PCs designed for demanding applications in automation, machine vision, and edge computing. They combine high computing power, flexible expandability, and a robust design for reliable 24/7 operation in industrial environments. Equipped with the latest Intel® processor platforms, the systems offer the necessary performance for data-intensive tasks such as image processing, AI preprocessing, data acquisition, and control and visualization processes. The architecture is designed for high memory bandwidth, fast NVMe connectivity, and stable continuous operation. The modular concept enables application-specific configuration with expandable I/O modules for serial interfaces, digital I/O, and fieldbuses, as well as PCIe expansion slots for frame grabber, motion control, or communication cards. Multiple LAN ports, optionally with 2.5GbE, and flexible memory and SSD options facilitate easy integration into existing systems. Thanks to their robust industrial design, these systems are engineered for use in demanding environments. Features include a wide temperature range (model-dependent), vibration and shock resistance, an industrial-grade power supply, and long-term availability for series production. The compact housing with its efficient cooling concept ensures effective heat dissipation and high system availability. Typical applications include machine vision, smart manufacturing, automation technology, edge computing in production lines, and testing and measurement systems. These systems thus provide a scalable platform for high-performance, durable, and low-maintenance industrial PC solutions in mechanical and plant engineering.
