Does Dell produce industrial PCs? What models are compatible with CNC laser systems?
Hi everyone,
I'm currently in the market for a reliable industrial PC to control my CNC laser system. I've been considering Dell's reputation for quality and performance, but I'm unsure if they offer models specifically designed for industrial applications.
Does anyone have experience using Dell industrial PCs with CNC laser systems? If so, which models would you recommend? I'm particularly interested in factors like:
- Performance: Can the PC handle the intensive calculations and real-time control required for laser cutting?
- Durability: Will it withstand the harsh environment of a manufacturing facility?
- Connectivity: Does it have the necessary ports and interfaces to connect with the laser system and other peripherals?
- Compatibility: Are there any specific models that are known to work well with popular CNC laser software?
Any insights or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Your best option is to follow the recommendations of the publisher of the software you'll be running.

Hello,
Look USB is just connection to the system, any laptop with right drivers can be used for this purpose, it's not like Dell will provide programs and connections to windows that you would be able to use CNC. Windows has so many layers that it makes difficult for new developers to connect their products, but it's Microsoft thing. So you don't really will get any advice from Dell on this topic, you need c/c++ dev to make binding with your CNC machine and it should be good to go.
