Outdated industrial PCs jeopardize your production reliability – upgrading in good time is worthwhile

No replacement parts for industrial PCs are now available for VESTER testing and sorting systems delivered before 2014. Particularly affected are camera systems with Orion or FireWire technology, whose components can no longer be procured or repaired due to discontinuation by third-party suppliers.

In the event of a malfunction, this can lead to significant production delays – currently, a downtime of up to 12–16 weeks is to be expected.
