Product Description:
Beckhoff supplies the C6640-0050 as a modular controller in the C6 Industrial PC Units series. The device combines CPU, chipset, and fieldbus interfaces in a single 19-inch-mountable chassis, allowing it to host TwinCAT or other soft-PLC software that coordinates drives, I/O slices, and supervisory databases in automated lines. Deploying such a PC removes the need for separate operator station computers because the same hardware can execute deterministic control tasks while simultaneously presenting visual dashboards, logging production data, and forwarding information to higher-level MES or cloud services.
Within a compact enclosure measuring 371 x 336 x 198 mm, the PC offers two Ethernet interfaces handled by Intel i219 (LAN1) and Intel i210 (LAN2) controllers. Through this pair of ports the system sustains line speeds up to 1000 Mbit/s and accepts cable runs as long as 100 m, supporting plant-wide network topologies without switches directly nearby. An IP20 protection rating indicates the housing is finger-safe yet requires mounting inside a cabinet. Four USB 3.0 ports are available at the front panel, each capable of delivering 900 mA to external HMIs, data keys, or service tools.
Multimedia and service connectivity complement the control functions. Audio is routed through 3 audio jacks, enabling microphone input and stereo playback for operator guidance or acoustic monitoring. Visual output can be split across 1 DisplayPort and 2 DVI outputs; all three connectors carry a digital signal so panel PCs or large monitors can be driven without analog conversion. A 9-pin DSUB serial connector remains for legacy devices such as barcode readers. The design requires 50 mm of free space on every side to maintain convection airflow, and the internal layout keeps the specified USB current and Ethernet performance stable under that clearance.
