SX5 series iComputer: Control has calculation, control is greater than calculation! The precise power of industrial automation!
In the wave of intelligent manufacturing, efficient, precise, and flexible control solutions have become a key force driving industrial upgrading. The SX5 series compact iComputer (referred to as the "SX5 series iComputer") launched by Zhongke Times in the first half of 2023 is one of the outstanding representatives of this trend.
Since its launch, the SX5 series iComputer has been designed with the core concept of "control with computation, control greater than computation", and has shone in industries such as new energy, wind power, energy storage, semiconductors, and 3C. It helps customers achieve cost reduction and efficiency improvement in hardware expansion and adaptation, motion control, logic control, data synchronization, logic configuration, and other aspects.
-Product Overview
The SX5 series iComputer is divided into two sub series, SX51 and SX50, with the most significant difference being the number of network ports, designed to meet the diverse needs of different industries for network port quantity and memory configuration. The SX51 series is equipped with 4 Ethernet interfaces, while the SX50 series offers 2 interfaces to flexibly adapt to various network topologies. In addition, the hardware configuration of the entire series of benchmark products remains consistent, with the default use of the new generation Intel Atom processor, 4G memory, and 128GB storage.

-Product Highlights
1. High precision, efficiency improvement and quality enhancement
In terms of motion control, the SX5 series iComputer has demonstrated outstanding performance. Supports up to 128 network axes, with the last two digits of the model name indicating the default maximum number of axes. The minimum beat time can reach 125 μ s, with an accuracy of up to 2 ‰ and jitter controlled within 30 μ s.
These technical parameters make the SX5 series iComputer very suitable for industries that require extremely high processing and control accuracy, such as lithium batteries, photovoltaics, semiconductors, etc., bringing unprecedented production efficiency and product quality improvement to enterprises.
2. Rich interfaces and strong scalability
The SX5 series iComputers have also put a lot of effort into interface design. In addition to the difference in the number of network ports, all products in the series come standard with 2 USB 3.0, 1 HDMI, and a multifunctional serial port (optional 232/422/485 interface and CAN interface), supporting multiple communication protocols.
At the same time, the scalability of local IO modules and remote IO modules provides users with more flexible and diverse connection methods to meet the needs of various complex industrial sites.
3. Compact design, saving space
In response to the limited space in industrial sites, the SX5 series iComputer adopts a compact structural design with dimensions of only 1300 * 100 * 90mm, making it easy to adapt to various narrow spaces. This design not only reduces installation difficulty, but also saves valuable production space, further improving the production efficiency of the enterprise.
4. Dual domain operating system, stable and reliable
Unlike the traditional PLC+industrial computer mode, the SX5 series iComputer adopts a dual domain operating system based on PC architecture.
This innovative design achieves isolation between logic control and human-computer interaction, ensuring high real-time control requirements while avoiding common issues such as blue screens and restarts in traditional systems. The dual domain data isolation mechanism ensures the stable operation and efficient maintenance of the system.
The dual domain operating system architecture and mechanism improve the integration and usability of product solutions, reduce the use of various software and hardware facilities, and even industrial control computers, greatly improving development and deployment efficiency, while also reducing material and manpower investment.
5. MetaFacture platform reduces development costs
SINSEGYE also provides users with a MetaFacture unified, modular, and integrated programming platform. This platform integrates code writing, hardware configuration, fault diagnosis, equipment operation and maintenance functions, greatly reducing the development threshold and cost for users. It is estimated that hardware costs can be reduced by 30-40%, and software development costs can be reduced by over 50%.
The SX5 series iComputer, with its unique system architecture and design philosophy, has achieved a certain level of performance, stability, security, and other aspects, bringing customers a more enjoyable user experience.
In the future, SINSEGYE will continue to deepen its cultivation in the field of intelligent manufacturing, providing efficient, stable, and reliable industrial intelligent computer control integrated solutions for more industries.
