Winmate IP-Rated and Stainless Steel Panel PCs for Food & Beverage Manufacturing

Hygienic – IP-Rated – Stainless Steel – Industrial Computers for Food Processing

Stainless Steel and Waterproof Industrial Computing Solutions Designed for Hygenic and Washdown Environments

Modern food and beverage manufacturing relies heavily on automation to improve productivity, maintain consistent quality, and meet strict hygiene regulations. From food processing and packaging lines to pharmaceutical production and cleanroom environments, industrial computers must operate reliably in harsh conditions where exposure to water, dust, chemicals, and frequent cleaning cycles is unavoidable.

Our Food & Beverage Stainless Steel Industrial Panel PCs have been specifically designed for applications where hygiene, durability, and reliable operation are critical. Featuring robust stainless steel construction and high levels of ingress protection, these systems are engineered to withstand daily washdowns while maintaining the highest standards of cleanliness and performance.

Built for Hygienic Production Environments

Food manufacturing environments present unique challenges. Industrial equipment installed on the production floor must not only provide reliable computing performance but also withstand demanding cleaning procedures.

Industrial Panel PCs used in these environments are exposed to:

  • High-pressure water cleaning
  • High-temperature washdown processes
  • Dust and airborne contaminants
  • Moisture and humidity
  • Aggressive cleaning chemicals
  • Continuous 24/7 operation

To meet these challenges, our Stainless Steel Panel PCs are manufactured using corrosion-resistant materials, including SUS 316 / AISI 316 stainless steel, providing excellent durability and resistance against harsh industrial cleaning processes.

For food processing applications requiring frequent cleaning, IP69K-rated Stainless Steel Panel PCs provide the highest level of protection against demanding washdown environments.

IP Ratings Explained

  • IP65: Dust tight, protected against water projected from a nozzle
  • IP66: Dust tight, protected against heavy seas or powerful jets of water
  • IP67: Dust tight, protected against immersion. for 30 minutes at depths 150 to 1000mm
  • IP68: Dust tight, protected against complete, continuous submersion in water
  • IP69K: Dust tight, protected against high-pressure, high-temperature jet sprays, wash-downs or steam-cleaning procedures

The IP (Ingress Protection) rating, defined by IEC 60529, measures an enclosure’s protection against dust, solid particles, and liquids. Higher ratings indicate greater protection for demanding industrial environments.

Industrial Panel PCs for Food & Beverage Manufacturing | Mounting Options

Stainless Heavy Industrial Yoke Mount

Mounting – Yoke Mount

The Yoke mount provides an excellent workstation positioning platform for various industrial needs.

The mounting system can be utilised such that PC can be attached to any type of surface and can be enabled to provide optimum viewing angles with side adjustment knobs. The optionally available ‘Benchtop Mounting Package’ provides completely stability around unwanted motion & makes it possible for cables to be fed through from the PC right into the mounting area in a neat (unsightly) fashion.

Stainless Heavy Industrial ARM Mount

Stainless Industrial Arm Mount

Industrial arm mounts enables the display to be positioned above and away from work areas, still providing for an solid workstation platform that is ideally suited for ‘busy’ environments but where the display needs to be cleared viewed

Friction joints allow the monitor to be easily repositioned, while knob tilt locks and a ‘low-bounce’ design provide a stable platform for use. The system is rated for displays up to 45 kg (circa 100 lbs.).

Industrial Mount Features:

  • Stainless steel material with ingress protection (IP) design
  • Cable entrance aperture design
  • Junction box for efficient cabling arrangement and protection
