Panel / VESA / Wallmounted.
For system integrators, this simple, complete, compact and highly
integrated system let you easily build an operator panel into your
applications. Common industrial applications include factory
automation systems, precision machinery, and production process
control. It is also suitable for many non-industrial applications,
including vending machine, and car park automation. Our operator
panel is a reliable, cost-effective solution to your application's
processing requirements.
