Industrial Display and Panel PC Platforms for Industrial Applications
NIACO Industrial Displays are a family of industrial display platforms designed for monitoring, visualization, operator stations, machine interfaces and application-specific industrial systems.
The product architecture separates the display platform from the computer hardware.
Each platform is available in multiple display sizes. Depending on the application, the same platform can be supplied in two configurations:
NID — Industrial Display
The display platform without integrated computer hardware.
NIAD — Industrial Panel PC
The same display platform combined with integrated computer hardware.
Each product is defined through:
Model Code → Base Hardware → Customer Configuration
This approach allows the display platform, chassis and computer hardware configuration to be selected according to the application.
Industrial Display Platform Architecture
The Industrial Display family is organized around platform families identified by the NIACO model code.
The platform determines the main chassis and display architecture.
The computer-integrated configuration adds the applicable computer hardware to the selected platform.
This structure allows one platform to be offered in multiple display sizes while maintaining a consistent product architecture.

Model Code → Base Hardware → Customer Configuration
NIACO uses a three-layer product definition model.
Layer 1 — Model Code
The model code identifies the base product platform.
Examples:
NID-F1
NIAD-F1
NID-F5
NIAD-CS1
Layer 2 — Base Hardware
The base hardware defines the selected platform, chassis and display architecture.
Layer 3 — Customer Configuration
Customer configuration can define applicable requirements such as:
- Display size
- Resolution
- Computer hardware where applicable
- Application-specific modules
- Interfaces
- Mounting requirements
- Power requirements
- Other applicable customer requirements
Applications
NIACO Industrial Displays and Panel PC platforms can support applications including:
- Industrial Monitoring
- Industrial Automation
- Machine Operation
- Operator Stations
- Production Monitoring
