Open-source industrial hardware to build industrial automation and process control systems

Industrial Shields manufactures open-source industrial hardware to build machines, designs and installations in industrial automation and process control. Now available from RS Components, these PLCs and Panel PCs are based on the most popular open source boards such as Arduino Leonardo, Arduino Mega, Raspberry Pi and Hummingboard; moreover, they support open source operative systems like Android and Linux. Using Industrial Shields products allow engineers to design complete industrial automation projects with open-source hardware (OSH). Now it's possible! From prototype to industrialisation with open source hardware! Industrial Shields product range covers Arduino based compact and modular PLCs as well as Raspberry PI based, Android OS and Linux OS Panel PCs. The ARDBOX and M-DUINO series of Arduino based PLCs allow you to prototype applications with the most famous Arduino boards, such as Arduino Mega and Arduino Leonardo, and go in production with almost no changes to the code. Industrial Shields PLCs and Panel PCs are the perfect choice for the Engineers who are looking for extremely flexible industrial hardware to develop cutting edge applications. Another key characteristics of the Industrial Shields PLCs is the I/Os density; up to 58 inputs/output in a single compact module.
