      What is involved in the hardening and ruggedisation of electronic systems and computers for harsh environmental and operating conditions

      What is involved in the hardening and ruggedisation of electronic systems and computers for harsh environmental and operating conditions

      What is involved in the hardening and ruggedisation of electronic systems and computers for harsh environmental and operating conditions? Steve Travis reports

      Chassis Plans has been a long-time provider of ruggedised computer equipment for military and industrial applications for over 18 years.

      Over the years, some aspects of designing rugged computers using COTS components have remained the same, while other areas have greatly changed.

      This paper discusses how Chassis Plans designs and manufactures its ruggedised systems for harsh environment applications. Below we cover the following topics: shock and vibration, temperature, protection from dirt and dust, and EMI/RFI shielding as it relates to our product offerings.

      When starting any new project, Chassis Plans collects as much technical detail as possible; information such as where and how the product will be deployed, operated, and stored (from an environmental standpoint), and what the product will be used for (from a performance and security stand point).

      This helps determine what type of computer components are required and to what level the system needs to be ruggedised.

      The design aspect can change greatly depending on the customer’s requirements – ie, ground-based, wheeled-vehicle, aircraft and shipboard applications all have their own unique requirements.

      Utilising its vast design library, Chassis Plans has access to thousands of existing designs that cover the gamut of shapes, sizes and configurations, many that have been MIL-STD certified.

      Our in-depth product knowledge and system designs all stem from working with customers to overcome design challenges and incorporating lessons learned with each new design.

      In many cases, this allows Chassis Plans to leverage a qualified existing design for new product development without having to start from “ground-up”.

      By using SolidWorks 3D CAD software for mechanical design work, new or updated designs can be created and validated virtually before any metal is manufactured, saving valuable time and money.
