Case Details

Against the backdrop of Industry 4.0 and the accelerating convergence of edge computing, industrial sites are demanding ever-higher levels of intelligence, visualization, and reliability from terminal devices. The TPC410 Series Industrial Edge Visualization Panel PC is designed to meet these challenges—an all-in-one human-machine interface (HMI) tailored for Industry 4.0 and intelligent edge scenarios. Built on a low-power, high-performance ARM architecture, the series integrates edge computing capabilities, industrial-grade protection, and flexible expandability, delivering robust local intelligence for smart manufacturing, process monitoring, energy management, and beyond.

The TPC410 Series offers three display size options—7-inch, 10.1-inch, and 15.6-inch—to accommodate diverse installation and operational requirements across different industrial settings.

Powerful Edge Intelligence Core

At the heart of the TPC410 Series lies the Rockchip RK3568 quad-core 64-bit Cortex-A55 processor, running at 1.4 GHz in normal mode and up to 1.8 GHz in overdrive mode. Built on a 22 nm advanced process, the processor strikes an excellent balance between performance and power consumption.

Notably, the RK3568 integrates a self-developed NPU delivering up to 1 TOPS of compute power, supporting multiple precision formats including INT4, INT8, INT16, and FP16. The NPU is compatible with mainstream deep learning frameworks such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, Caffe, and MXNet, enabling the TPC410 to efficiently run edge AI workloads—visual inspection, intelligent analytics, and more—right at the source. Paired with the Mali-G52-2EE GPU, the device also supports 4K@30 fps H.265 video decoding and 1080P@60 fps H.264 encoding, meeting the multimedia display and video processing needs of industrial environments.

As edge computing increasingly moves to the factory floor, the TPC410’s 1-TOPS NPU allows real-time inference and decision-making at the data origin, eliminating reliance on cloud round‑trips, significantly reducing latency, and ensuring data security.

Rugged, High-Brightness Industrial Design

Industrial environments are demanding—equipment must withstand harsh conditions while remaining clearly readable. The TPC410 Series addresses these challenges with comprehensive design considerations:

  • High-Brightness Display: The 10.1-inch version features a high-brightness LCD that remains clearly visible even under strong ambient light, ensuring operators can accurately read data in outdoor or well-lit workshop settings.
  • Superior Protection Ratings: The front panel achieves IP66 ingress protection, guarding against dust ingress and powerful water jets; it also meets IK08 impact resistance, providing robust defense against mechanical shocks—ideal for heavy industrial environments with dust and splashing liquids.
  • Wide Operating Temperature: Supporting a temperature range from -30 °C to 70 °C, the TPC410 operates reliably in both frigid northern winters and scorching summer workshops.

 Flexible and Open Software Ecosystem

On the software side, the TPC410 Series offers exceptional flexibility and openness, dramatically lowering the barriers to development and deployment:

  • Multi‑OS Support: Compatible with Linux, Yocto, Ubuntu, Debian, and Android, allowing developers to choose the operating system that best fits their project.
  • Rich Development Tools: Natively supports Docker containers, Node-RED, Python, Qt, and other tools, providing a comprehensive environment for industrial application development.
  • Pre-loaded Utilities: Ships with QuickConfig for rapid setup, an AI-assisted programming tool, BLIoTLink for protocol conversion, and BLRAT for remote operation and maintenance. BLIoTLink supports conversion among multiple industrial protocols—including Modbus, PLC, BACnet, IEC104, MQTT, and OPC UA—enabling seamless connectivity with a wide range of industrial devices and systems, greatly simplifying system integration and deployment.
Extensive and Expandable Hardware Interfaces

Industrial sites often require connections to a variety of sensors, actuators, and communication devices. The TPC410 Series provides ample interface expansion capabilities:

  • Modular I/O Expansion: Offers X/Y series I/O expansion boards that support flexible configuration of RS485, RS232, CAN, DI (digital input), DO (digital output), AI (analog input), AO (analog output), thermocouple, PT100, relay, and more, covering diverse industrial signal acquisition and control needs.
  • Wireless Communication Expansion: Built-in Mini PCIe slot supports 4G/5G, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth modules, ensuring reliable connectivity in various network environments.
  • Standard Interfaces: Equipped with two 100 Mbps Ethernet ports, two USB2.0 ports, HDMI, Type-C, SD card slot, and SIM card slot, meeting common peripheral connectivity requirements.

Superior Industrial Reliability

The TPC410 Series has undergone rigorous industrial-grade validation:

  • Electromagnetic Compatibility: Passed professional EMC design and testing, guaranteeing stable operation in electrically noisy industrial environments.
  • Environmental Robustness: Verified through stringent high/low temperature, vibration, and drop tests, ensuring structural integrity during transportation and operation.
  • Multiple Protection Mechanisms: Features chassis grounding, reverse power protection, and a hardware watchdog timer, comprehensively enhancing device safety and reliability—preventing production interruptions caused by power anomalies or system hangs.

    Typical Application Scenarios
  • Smart Manufacturing Production Line Control

On a smart manufacturing line, the TPC410 serves as a core HMI terminal. The RK3568’s rich interfaces—USB2.0, RS232/485, GPIO, etc.—allow easy connection to PLC controllers, photoelectric sensors, alarm devices, and more. The touchscreen can dynamically display the product assembly process flow, guiding operators step by step and automatically verifying each step to prevent omissions or errors. Moreover, its 4K video decoding capability, combined with AI algorithms running on the NPU, can automatically detect surface defects, significantly improving product quality inspection efficiency.

  • Process Industry Monitoring

In chemical, pharmaceutical, and other process industries, the 10.1-inch touchscreen clearly displays critical parameters such as temperature, pressure, and liquid level, enabling operators to monitor processes in real time. The RK3568’s compute power supports real‑time data processing and analysis, triggering alarms when values exceed preset thresholds. Operators can also modify process parameters—like reaction temperature and flow rate—directly through the touchscreen, ensuring optimal production stability.

  • Smart Warehousing and Logistics

As an onboard terminal for AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles), the TPC410’s high‑brightness touchscreen remains clearly readable in sunlight. Via RS485 connection to the PLC, it can display material transport routes and task status in real time. The integrated NPU processes data from LiDAR and vision sensors on the fly, improving path‑planning response speed and reducing downtime. Operators can also remotely control and dispatch AGVs through the touchscreen.

  •  Energy Sector

In photovoltaic, wind power, and other energy generation sites, the TPC410 monitors key data such as power output, voltage, and current in real time. Leveraging the RK3568’s low‑power design, the device runs continuously for extended periods, reducing energy consumption. Through the touchscreen, maintenance personnel can remotely start/stop equipment, switch operating modes (e.g., grid-connected / off-grid for solar systems), and review historical operating data and fault logs for easier maintenance and management.

  • Heavy Machinery Operation

The 10.1‑inch touchscreen is appropriately sized for operation within heavy-machinery cabs. The TPC410 can replace some functions of traditional mechanical joysticks, allowing operators to set working modes—such as “breaker/excavate” mode on excavators—via the screen. Its wide‑temperature performance and excellent noise immunity enable it to withstand the dusty, vibration‑prone conditions typical of heavy outdoor machinery, ensuring reliable operation.
