IEI Rugged IP66 Panel PC Brings Real-Time Visibility to Heavy-Duty Mining Fleets
Nyenta.com/10360574

POMONA, Calif. - Nyenta -- IEI Technology USA Corp. today announced that a European mining operator has deployed its UPC-F12M1-RPLP panel PC across a drilling fleet. The in-vehicle unit gives operators live visibility into vehicle diagnostics and machine status during active drilling cycles.

The Challenge

Legacy in-cab displays could not meet IP66 sealing, M12 connector, or wide-temperature requirements, and supervisors needed one platform for task progress, equipment health, vehicle location, data logging, and fleet connectivity. Hardware required CE, FCC, and UKCA certification and fanless 24/7 operation in remote underground and open-pit sites exposed to extreme vibration, dust, moisture, and wide temperature swings.

The Solution

IEI deployed the UPC-F12M1-RPLP as the in-vehicle computing and display unit. Mounted in operator cabins, each unit connects to onboard sensors, drilling control systems, and vehicle CAN networks, and runs custom HMI software for real-time drilling dashboards, task status visualization, and alerts. The operator chose the platform for its IP66-sealed fanless die-cast chassis; M12 locking connectors, CAN bus, and RS-232/422/485 for integration with drilling controls and PLCs; and Wi-Fi 6, ACC ignition mode, and 9–36V DC input for fleet sync across 12V and 24V vehicles.

The UPC-F12M1-RPLP features a 12.1-inch projected capacitive touchscreen that works with gloves and a 13th Gen Intel Core i3-1315URE processor with six cores running up to 4.5 GHz. It operates from -20°C to 60°C.

Results

One panel PC now serves as the monitoring, control, visualization, and communications hub for each drilling rig. The sealed, fanless design sustained reliable performance in dust-laden, high-vibration environments, and Wi-Fi 6 kept consistent uplinks to fleet management for proactive maintenance and remote diagnostics. M12 locking connectors reduced wiring failures and field maintenance, supporting higher fleet uptime.

"Mining environments test hardware at its limits, with extreme vibration, dust, and continuous operation," said Eric Hsieh, General Manager of IEI Technology USA Corp. "The UPC-F12M1-RPLP was built for these conditions, giving operators the real-time visibility and connected control they need to run more efficient fleets."
