What your platform faces in the field
Extreme rugged applications impose three categories of stress that commercial-grade systems cannot survive.
Wide Temperature
PCB and system must survive extreme thermal cycling depot cold starts through full operational heat load without fan-based active cooling.
-40 to 70°C operational rangeShock & Vibration
Rail joints, vehicle dynamics, and constant multi-axis vibration fatigue solder joints and loosen connections over time on unprotected boards.
50G shock/ 6 axis continuous vibrationContaminants
Salt spray, fungal growth, high humidity, and dust accelerate corrosion and cause insulation breakdown on unprotected electronics.
Salt/ fungus/ humidity/ dustVALUE PROPOSITION

Our 4-Step ODM Process
Custom Rugged ODM Solutions by ADLINK
A:Our systems are engineered from the board level up to withstand harsh environments. We design and validate in-house to ensure our hardware meets rigorous shock, vibration, and wide operating temperature standards without compromising computing performance.
A:Yes, our ODM services cover everything from modifying standard commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products to engineering fully custom system designs tailored specifically for rolling stock and wayside deployments.
A:We understand that industrial deployments require longevity. We offer extended lifecycle management and revision control, typically supporting products for 8 to 10 years to ensure long-term stability.
A:Running AI inference at the edge requires high-powered GPUs that generate significant heat. We engineer our custom systems using advanced thermal management techniques—such as conduction cooling, specialized heat spreaders, and completely fanless enclosures. This ensures reliable, unthrottled AI performance even when operating in wide temperature ranges (-40°C to +85°C) and extreme rugged conditions.
