Overview of M-Max’s Customized Portfolio
No LimitsMicroMax M-Max Customized SolutionsEach industry has its own computing requirements, and often a standard solution does not meet a customer’s strin-gent needs. MicroMax, as a manufacturer of industrial computers, takes a customized approach to each client. Our engineering group can design an M-Max system to fit the specific technical requirements of the customer. At a fraction of the size, M-Max delivers performance comparable to high-end desktop systems. The fanless M-Max, housed in a rugged aluminum enclosure with dual shock and vibration protection, is designed for operation in harsh environments including extreme temperatures, dust, humidity and vibration.
To accommodate the need to use a high performance processor when passive cooling and a small enclosure are man-datory, we developed the technology to dissipate excessive heat from computer boards and other electronic devices working in high vibration environments. This patented design enables the removal of heat from electronic components housed on a circuit board vibroinsulated from an enclosure.
This technology is the basis for our unsurpassed M-Max 800 PR, a fully sealed 2.26 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo CPU system which operates at ambient temperatures of -40 to +55 °C, and is both highly vibration and shock resistant.

Photo 1. M-Max 800 PR/TRN-02 is a high-performance rugged industrial computer for demanding and critical ap-plications requiring performance comparable to high-end desktop systems. The system is IP65 rated and can with-stand shocks of up to 40 g and vibration of up to 6 g. The M-Max 800 PR/TRN-02 is configured with Intel Core 2 Duo 2.26 GHz CPU and GMA 4500 video expandable to ATI Radeon™ E4690.
To be operational at an extended temperature range, -40 to +55 °C, in a very small space and without any active cooling, MicroMax developed and patented the technology to dis-sipate excessive heat from computer boards.
M-Max 800 PR/TRN-02 has 5 LAN Gigabit Ethernet, RS232/422/485, 3 USB 2.0. Data storage options include a vibration proof HDD or an industrial SSD.
The M-Max 800 PR/TRN-02 has no competition in the high-performance ruggedized computing market.
Photo 2. M-Max 800 PR/TRN-04 used in a shipboard navigational system. A number of engineering solutions as well as utilization of different components have allowed us to reduce the overall cost of this system while fully retaining functionality of this navigational computer. The most no-ticeable change in the photo are connectors, the remaining differences are internal. This model is also built by utiliz-ing MicroMax’s patented technology to dissipate excessive heat from computer boards.
