The secret to finding the best rugged computer


Posted June 5, 2018 by AcuraES

Finding the best rugged computer is simple: the computer equipment used must be able to perform at an optimal level in some of the harshest environments on earth.

 
While the challenges found in rugged working environments may seem complex, the premise behind what it actually takes to solve these challenges is very basic and easy to understand: the computer equipment used must be able to perform at an optimal level in some of the harshest environments on earth. Simply put, it must work and keep on working no matter what resistance comes against it.

Comparable to active battlefield conditions, oil and mining operations must be able to continue to function in spite of sand, extreme humidity, falling rocks or possible entrapment, explosions, and much more. When faced with these kinds of surroundings, the majority of computers will irretrievably shut down. System failure like this is not a mere inconvenience for oil and mining companies. The results would be catastrophic with losses of thousands of dollars per hour, delays in the supply of goods to overseas locations, not to mention the potential of compromising the safety of people working on site or the integrity of the environment. Only a rugged computer will do, and not just any version.

Acura Embedded Inc. has successfully served their customers for over 20 years because they customize their products to suit customer needs instead of selling generic products that do the job half-way to make a quick profit. Their amazing computer systems do not fail to perform whether they are being used on an off-shore oil rig, inside a dusty refinery, or in a mine prone to light tremors or intense shaking.

One of Acura Embedded Inc.’s satisfied clients is the Weir-Jones Group. Their Engineering Consultants have developed the Seismic “Rockfall” Detection System (SRFDS), an excellent substitute for the traditional slide fence technology previously employed to detect falling rocks. The Weir-Jones Group uses many of Acura Embedded Inc.’s groundbreaking products to assist railway companies in detecting track blockages from rock or snow slides. This technology is particularly critical in the winter season where temperatures drop dramatically. Complete with GPS and a cell phone modem of 4GLTE, the Powerbrick 6.0 has assisted in eliminating high maintenance costs from previous systems as well as continuous false alarms generated from slide fence systems. An accident on the railroad track can create a major disaster, and a reliable computer to monitor if and when a blockage occurs is necessary to keep all operations running smoothly. The Weir-Jones Group has also tested over 50 Acura Embedded Inc. systems and has found them all to perform at a superior quality.

This and other companies have found Acura Embedded Inc. products and services to not only meet their needs in a variety of situations, but to drastically revolutionize the way their systems operate on a fundamental level.

Going above and beyond to serve you is what sets companies like Acura apart from its competitors. Acura Embedded Systems understands that serving the customer while making the extra effort to meet their needs is the only way to ultimately succeed.
