An exciting year for fanless technology

Feb 29, 2016

In our quest to go the extra mile for our customers by providing them with hands on, technical support and products tailored to their applications, we sent our engineer Max to visit our key partner CompuLab, the leading manufacturer of rugged and innovative fanless PCs.

TinyGreenPC and AndersDX have enjoyed a close working relationship with CompuLab for many years – giving us exclusive sales rights for their range of Computer on Modules, Single Board Computers and Fanless Industrial PCs such as Fitlet, IntensePC, FitPC or MicroSVR in the UK and Italy.

“Last December, I visited our partner CompuLab based in Yokneam Illit, Israel for the first time" explained Max, our Application Engineer . "I wanted to increase my technical knowledge of our portfolio and catch up on new designs, new products (such as the Airtop) and new production processes.

I was charmed both by the country and the CompuLab team who gave me a very warm welcome (actually the weather was very warm: 22 degrees for December, that’s not bad!).

I met with the whole team including the technical team, production, the RMA department and the developers who work on BIOS and Drivers for special applications… and I was impressed by the level of the technical knowledge of everyone there.

A sneak peek at Airtop

Sneak Peek AirtopThe product I was most excited to see was the new Airtop desktop PC. How cool! At the time, the secrecy around the Airtop was well guarded, so I felt very privileged to set my eyes on this amazing and powerful piece of technology.

Airtop was running with a test configuration and I was really surprised by the absolute silence of this desktop system. I touched both sides: the left side was dissipating the Graphic Card’s heat while the right side was dissipating the Processor’s heat. The aluminium case was no warmer than your charging phone.

I was genuinely blown away by the product. The opening system using Clamshell and Kensington locks is also ingeniously designed: it enables you to open and configure your machine so simply and without the need for ANY tools.

Flexible Products & Solutions

We also talked a lot about the portfolio and some projects I’ve developed here in the TinyGreenPC Lab, including using a 3G Modem Kit within a PC with an on-board SIM socket to enable you to have real-time data communication. It’s perfect for Machine to Machine communications, mobile computing, tracking of vehicles or remote monitoring.

The team also showed me the Fit-Uptime before it was released. We aim to offer flexible and reliable solutions so this new addition is perfect for customers with crucial needs for power backup.
